# freebsd: file(1) magic for FreeBSD objects
#
# All new-style FreeBSD magic numbers are in host byte order (i.e.,
# little-endian on x86).
#
# XXX - this comes from the file "freebsd" in a recent FreeBSD version of
# "file"; it, and the NetBSD stuff in "netbsd", appear to use different
# schemes for distinguishing between executable images, shared libraries,
# and object files.
#
# FreeBSD says:
#
# Regardless of whether it's pure, demand-paged, or none of the
# above:
#
# if the entry point is < 4096, then it's a shared library if
# the "has run-time loader information" bit is set, and is
# position-independent if the "is position-independent" bit
# is set;
#
# if the entry point is >= 4096 (or >4095, same thing), then it's
# an executable, and is dynamically-linked if the "has run-time
# loader information" bit is set.
#
# On x86, NetBSD says:
#
# If it's neither pure nor demand-paged:
#
# if it has the "has run-time loader information" bit set, it's
# a dynamically-linked executable;
#
# if it doesn't have that bit set, then:
#
# if it has the "is position-independent" bit set, it's
# position-independent;
#
# if the entry point is non-zero, it's an executable, otherwise
# it's an object file.
#
# If it's pure:
#
# if it has the "has run-time loader information" bit set, it's
# a dynamically-linked executable, otherwise it's just an
# executable.
#
# If it's demand-paged:
#
# if it has the "has run-time loader information" bit set,
# then:
#
# if the entry point is < 4096, it's a shared library;
#
# if the entry point is = 4096 or > 4096 (i.e., >= 4096),
# it's a dynamically-linked executable);
#
# if it doesn't have the "has run-time loader information" bit
# set, then it's just an executable.
#
# (On non-x86, NetBSD does much the same thing, except that it uses
# 8192 on 68K - except for "68k4k", which is presumably "68K with 4K
# pages - SPARC, and MIPS, presumably because Sun-3's and Sun-4's
# had 8K pages; dunno about MIPS.)
#
# I suspect the two will differ only in perverse and uninteresting cases
# ("shared" libraries that aren't demand-paged and whose pages probably
# won't actually be shared, executables with entry points <4096).
#
# I leave it to those more familiar with FreeBSD and NetBSD to figure out
# what the right answer is (although using ">4095", FreeBSD-style, is
# probably better than separately checking for "=4096" and ">4096",
# NetBSD-style). (The old "netbsd" file analyzed FreeBSD demand paged
# executables using the NetBSD technique.)

# XXX gross hack to identify core files
# cores start with a struct tss; we take advantage of the following:
# byte 7: highest byte of the kernel stack pointer, always 0xfe
# 8/9: kernel (ring 0) ss value, always 0x0010
# 10 - 27: ring 1 and 2 ss/esp, unused, thus always 0
# 28: low order byte of the current PTD entry, always 0 since the
# PTD is page-aligned
