John Baldwin 5ca09def5b Add support for automatically loading symbols for kld's on startup:
- Add a new 'kgdb_auto_load_klds()' routine which is invoked during
  startup that walks the list of linker files and tries to find a matching
  kld on disk for each non-kernel kld.  If a kld file is found, then it
  is added as if the 'add-kld' command is invoked.  One change from
  'add-kld' is that this method attempts to use the 'pathname' from the
  linker_file structure first to try to load the file.  If that fails
  it then looks in the kernel directory followed by the directories in
  the module path.
- Move the kld file suffix handling into a separate routine so that it
  can be called standalone and to reduce duplicate code in find_kld_path().
- Cache the offsets of members of 'struct linker_file' during startup
  instead of computing them for each 'add-kld'.
- Use GDB's target_read_string() instead of direct KVM access.
- Add all resident sections from a kld by using bfd_map_over_sections() to
  build the section list rather than just adding symbols for ".text",
  ".data", ".bss", and ".rodata".
- Change the 'add-kld' command to do a y/n prompt before adding the
  symbols when run interactively to match 'add-symbol-file'.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
