is stolen from procfs_machdep.c, and moved out of there into
machdep.c.
These functions are needed for generating ELF core dumps.

and checking Elf_Ehdr structures.
Add structures to represent ELF "note" headers. Add defines for the
note types used in ELF core files.
standard places ("/etc/objformat", ${OBJFORMAT}, argv) for an
indication of the user's preferred object file format. This
consolidates some code that was starting to be duplicated in more
and more places.
Use the new function in ldconfig.
Note: I don't think that gcc should use getobjformat(), even though
it could. The compiler should limit itself to functions that are
widespread, to ease porting and cross-compilation.
Add some overflow checks to read/write (from bde).
Change all modifications to vm_page::flags, vm_page::busy, vm_object::flags
and vm_object::paging_in_progress to use operations which are not
interruptable.

All the revision history of the i386 syscons has been retained by a
repository copy.
saver and splash screen can all work properly with syscons. Note that
the splash screen option (SC_SPLASH_SCREEN) does not work yet, as it
requires additional code from msmith.
- Reorganized the splash screen code to match the latest development
in this area.
- Delay screen switch in `switch_scr()' until the screen saver is
stopped, if one is running,
- Start the screen saver immediately, if any, when the `saver' key is
pressed. (There will be another commit for `kbdcontrol' to support
this keyword in the keymap file.)
- Do not always stop the screen saver when mouse-related ioctls
are called. Stop it only if the mouse is moved or buttons are
clicked; don't stop it if any other mouse ioctls are called.
2. Added provision to write userland screen savers. (Contact me if you
are interested in writing one.)
- Added CONS_IDLE, CONS_SAVERMODE, and CONS_SAVERSTART ioctls to
support userland screen savers.
3. Some code clean-ups.

The patch supports using the X10 Mouse Remote in both stand-alone and
pass-through configurations, so you can plug your mouse and remote into the
same serial port, use the mouse for X, and use the remote for other apps
like Fxtv. For instance, we can now control fxtv via the remote control
just like a TV : change channels, mute, increase volume, zoom video,
freeze frame 8)
The mouse events are channeled through the syscons/sysmouse I/F like
normal, and the remote buttons are "syphoned off" to a UNIX-domain stream
socket (defined as _PATH_MOUSEREMOTE in <machine/mouse.h>) for a
remote-aware app to grab and use.

Major changes to the generic device framework for FreeBSD/alpha:
* Eliminate bus_t and make it possible for all devices to have
attached children.
* Support dynamically extendable interfaces for drivers to replace
both the function pointers in driver_t and bus_ops_t (which has been
removed entirely. Two system defined interfaces have been defined,
'device' which is mandatory for all devices and 'bus' which is
recommended for all devices which support attached children.
* In addition, the alpha port defines two simple interfaces 'clock'
for attaching various real time clocks to the system and 'mcclock'
for the many different variations of mc146818 clocks which can be
attached to different alpha platforms. This eliminates two more
function pointer tables in favour of the generic method dispatch
system provided by the device framework.
Future device interfaces may include:
* cdev and bdev interfaces for devfs to use in replacement for specfs
and the fixed interfaces bdevsw and cdevsw.
* scsi interface to replace struct scsi_adapter (not sure how this
works in CAM but I imagine there is something similar there).
* various tailored interfaces for different bus types such as pci,
isa, pccard etc.

development and testing was done using SimOS (see

port successfully reaches single-user mode and has been tested with
loads as high as one copy of /bin/ls :-).
