discussed on current.
The following variables are defined (for now):
osname (defaults to "Linux")
Allow users to change the name of the OS as returned by uname(2),
specially added for all those Linux Netscape users and statistics
maniacs :-) We now have what we all wanted!
osrelease (defaults to "2.2.5")
Allow users to change the version of the OS as returned by uname(2).
Since -current supports glibc2.1 now, change the default to 2.2.5
(was 2.0.36).
oss_version (defaults to 198144 [0x030600])
This one will be used by the OSS_GETVERSION ioctl (PR 12917) which I
can commit now that we have the MIB. The default version number is the
lowest version possible with the current 'encoding'.
A note about imprisoned processes (see jail(2)):
These variables are copy-on-write (as suggested by phk). This means that
imprisoned processes will use the system wide value unless it is written/set
by the process. From that moment on, a copy local to the prison will be
used.
A note about the implementation:
I choose to add a single pointer to struct prison, because I didn't like the
idea of changing struct prison every time I come up with a new variable. As
a side effect, the extra storage is only needed when a variable is set from
within the prison. This also minimizes kernel bloat when the Linuxulator is
not used; both compiled in or as a module.

Change the ELF registration/unregistration scheme to be less error prone.
Adding a new brand requires a single addition to linux_brandlist instead of
modifying linux_load(), linux_unload(), and linux_elf_init().

Honor LDFLAGS for building internal tools. (Tools should normally
be built static to avoid problems with picking up target shared
libraries. bsd.kmod doesn't set -static yet, and has some problems
with `LDFLAGS=-static ...' in the environment.)
Use the name argument almost the same in all LKM types. Maintain
the current behavior for the external (e.g., modstat) name for DEV,
EXEC, and MISC types being #name ## "_mod" and SYCALL and VFS only
#name. This is a candidate for change and I vote just the name without
the "_mod".
Change the DISPATCH macro to MOD_DISPATCH for consistency with the
other macros.
Add an LKM_ANON #define to eliminate the magic -1 and associated
signed/unsigned warnings.
Add MOD_PRIVATE to support wcd.c's poking around in the lkm structure.
Change source in tree to use the new interface.

Use cc instead of cpp | as for the same reasons as in the kernel makefile.
CFLAGS isn't split up as well as in the kernel makefile, but cc doesn't
pass compiler warning flags to cpp, so there is no need to split it.
Compile and link a new kernel, that will give native ELF support, and

To make native ELF binaries use John Polstras elf-kit-1.0.1..
For the time being also use his ld-elf.so.1 and put it in
/usr/libexec.
The Linux emulator has been enhanced to also run ELF binaries, it

from a string to an identifier so that it can be used to generate
declarations and strings. It's much easier to stringize an identifier
than to identifize a string. A uniform naming scheme must be used
for the automatically generated things to apply. This is a feature.
Used the module identifer to generate prototypes for the module load,
unload and stat functions. Removed the few prototypes for these that
already existed.
Used the module identifier to generate a unique struct tag in MOD_DEV().
This should probably be done for all the MOD_*() macros.
Moved the trailing semicolon from the MOD_*() macro definitions to the
macro invocations that didn't already (bogusly) have it.
Staticized the module load and unload functions.
Added function return types for the module load, unload and stat functions.

Symorder is enforcing this when the current bsd.kmod.mk is installed.
I've not tested all these, but at least they all compile now.
Reattach them to the makefile.
Note that the change that I made to symorder needs to be compiled and
installed before any LKM's will work - the last version was corrupting
the relocation tables. A "make world" will to this, but if you
manually run a make on the lkm's you'll need to take care of it by
hand.
This first shot only incorporaties so much functionality that DOOM
can run (the X version), signal handling is VERY weak, so is many
other things. But it meets my milestone number one (you guessed it
- running DOOM).
Uses /compat/linux as prefix for loading shared libs, so it won't
conflict with our own libs.
Kernel must be compiled with "options COMPAT_LINUX" for this to work.
