- Emitt an error when encountering an unsupported and in case of the
kernel also for unaligned relocations.
- Fix R_SPARC_LOX10 relocations. Apparently these are hardly ever used.
- Add the _RF_X committed in r212998 also to the tables in the sparc64
reloc.c in order reduce differences between the kernel and the userland
source. This results in no functional change though.
- Fix further inconsistencies in the abbreviations of the names of the
relocations.
- Further whitespace fixes.

values for resolved symbols relative to relocbase instead of sections
so detect this case and handle as appropriate, which allows using
kernel modules linked with affected versions of binutils. Actually I
think this is a bug in binutils but given that apparently nobody
complained for nearly six years and powerpc has basically the same
workaround I decided to put it in for the sparc64 kernel, too.
- Fix R_SPARC_HIX22 relocations. Apparently these are hardly ever used.
filters are implemented.
Filtees are loaded on demand, unless LD_LOADFLTR environment variable
is set or -z loadfltr was specified during the linking. This forces
rtld to upgrade read-locked rtld_bind_lock to write lock when it
encounters an object with filter during symbol lookup.
Consolidate common arguments of the symbol lookup functions in the
SymLook structure. Track the state of the rtld locks in the
RtldLockState structure. Pass local RtldLockState through the rtld
symbol lookup calls to allow lock upgrades.

because calling mmap() etc. may use GOT which is not set up
yet. Use calloc() instead of mmap() in cases where this
was the case before (sparc64, powerpc, arm).

sparc64, use ANSI function headers and specifically indicate the lack of
arguments with 'void'. Otherwise, warnings are generated at WARNS=3 for
libkse, leading to a compile failure with -Werror.
in the way we implement handling of relocations.
As for the kernel part this fixes the loading of lots of modules,
which failed to load due to unresolvable symbols when built after
the GCC 4.2.0 import. This wasn't due to a change in GCC itself
though but one of several changes in configuration done along the
import. Specfically, HAVE_AS_REGISTER_PSEUDO_OP, which causes GCC
to denote global registers used for scratch purposes and in turn
GAS uses R_SPARC_OLO10 relocations for, is now defined.
While at it replace some more ELF_R_TYPE which should have been
ELF64_R_TYPE_ID but didn't cause problems so far.
- Sync a sanity check between kernel and rtld(1) and change it to be
maintenance free regarding the type used for the lookup table.
- Sprinkle const on lookup tables.
- Use __FBSDID.

Implement dlvsym() function to allow lookups for a specific version of
a given symbol.

o Remove Elf64_Quarter,
o Redefine Elf64_Half to be 16-bit,
o Redefine Elf64_Word to be 32-bit,
o Add Elf64_Xword and Elf64_Sxword for 64-bit entities,
o Use Elf_Size in MI code to abstract the difference between
Elf32_Word and Elf64_Word.
o Add Elf_Ssize as the signed counterpart of Elf_Size.

(and that is for now being worked around by a binutils patch).
The rtld code tested &_DYNAMIC against 0 to see whether rtld itself
was built as PIC or not. While the sparc64 MD code did not rely
on the preset value of the GOT slot for _DYNAMIC any more due
to previous binutils changes, it still used to not be 0, so
that this check did work. The new binutils do however initialize
this slot with 0. As a consequence, rtld would not properly initialize
itself and crash.
Fix that by introducing a new macro, RTLD_IS_DYNAMIC, to take the role
of this test. For sparc64, it is implemented using the rtld_dynamic()
code that was already there. If an architecture does not provide its
own implementation, we default to the old check.
While being there, mark _DYNAMIC as a weak symbol in the sparc64
rtld_start.S. This is needed in the LDSCRIPT case, which is however
not currently supported for want of an actual ldscript.
Sanity checked with md5 on alpha, amd64, i386 and ia64.
rtld. When _DYNAMIC is referenced normally from C the global offset
table is used implicitly, but newer versions of binutils don't initialize
it statically in the binary, so this doesn't work until rtld is relocated,
which _DYNAMIC is needed for... So, as on other systems with the same
problem, we disassemble a call instruction to _DYNAMIC in order to get
its address.
implementation in case default one provided by rtld is
not suitable.

They provided little benefit (if any) and they caused some problems
in OpenOffice, at least in post-KSE -current and perhaps in other
environments too. The nanosleep calls prevented the profiling timer
from advancing during the spinloops, thereby preventing the thread
scheduler from ever pre-empting the spinning thread. Alexander
Kabaev diagnosed this problem, Martin Blapp helped with testing,
and Matt Dillon provided some helpful suggestions.
This is a short-term fix for a larger problem. The use of spinlocking
isn't guaranteed to work in all cases. For example, if the spinning
thread has higher priority than all other threads, it may never be
pre-empted, and the thread holding the lock may never progress far
enough to release the lock. On the other hand, spinlocking is the
only locking that can work with an arbitrary unknown threads package.
I have some ideas for a much better fix in the longer term. It
would eliminate all locking inside the dynamic linker by making it
safe for symbol lookups and lazy binding to proceed in parallel
with a call to dlopen or dlclose. This means that the only mutual
exclusion needed would be to prevent multiple simultaneous calls
to dlopen and/or dlclose. That mutual exclusion could be put into
the native pthreads library. Applications using foreign threads
packages would have to make their own arrangements to ensure that
they did not have multiple threads in dlopen and/or dlclose -- a
reasonable requirement in my opinion.

Untested (testing request went unanswered), but sparc64 is not expected to
cause problems. IA64 is not expected to cause problems but the patch was
slightly more complex so the possibility exists.
