StarOffice 7.0 Linux binaries work according to submitter; also tested
with nvidia driver by submitter.

- improve sysinfo(2) syscall;
- add dummy fadvise64(2) syscall;
- add dummy *xattr(2) family of syscalls;
- add protos for the syscalls 222-225, 238-249 and 253-267;
- add exit_group(2) syscall, which is currently just wired to exit(2).

o Introduce private types for use in linux syscalls for two reasons:
1. establish type independence for ease in porting and,
2. provide a visual queue as to which syscalls have proper
prototypes to further cleanup the i386/alpha split.
Linuxulator types are prefixed by 'l_'. void and char have not
been "virtualized".
o Provide dummy functions for all syscalls and remove dummy functions
or implementations of truely obsolete syscalls.
o Sanitize the shm*, sem* and msg* syscalls.
o Make a first attempt to implement the linux_sysctl syscall. At this
time it only returns one MIB (KERN_VERSION), but most importantly,
it tells us when we need to add additional sysctls :-)
o Bump the kenel version up to 2.4.2 (this is not the same as the
KERN_VERSION MIB, BTW).
o Implement new syscalls, of which most are specific to i386. Our
syscall table is now up to date with Linux 2.4.2. Some highlights:
- Implement the 32-bit uid_t and gid_t bases syscalls.
- Implement a couple of 64-bit file size/offset bases syscalls.
o Fix or improve numerous syscalls and prototypes.
o Reduce style(9) violations while I'm here. Especially indentation
inconsistencies within the same file are addressed. Re-indenting
did not obfuscate actual changes to the extend that it could not
be combined.
NOTE: I spend some time testing these changes and found that if there
were regressions, they were not caused by these changes AFAICT.
It was observed that installing a RH 7.1 runtime environment
did make matters worse. Hangs and/or reboots have been observed
with and without these changes, so when it failed to make life
better in cases it doesn't look like it made it worse.
struct sigframe. We need more than only the signal context.
o Properly convert the signal mask when setting up the signal
frame in linux_sendsig and properly convert it back in
linux_sigreturn.
Do some cleanups and improve style while here.
know if and when an unimplemented or obsoleted syscall is being used. Make the
message more end-user friendly.
And as long as we're here, rename some unimplemeted syscalls (linux_phys ->
linux_umount2, linux_vm86 -> linux_vm86old, linux_new_vm86 -> linux_vm86).
Change prototype for linux_newuname from `struct linux_newuname_t *' into
`struct linux_new_utsname *'. This change is reflected in linux.h and
linux_misc.c.
functions use the new sigset_t and sigaction_t which allows support for more
than 32 signals. Only the lower 32 signals are supported for now.
linux_rt_sigaction, linux_sigaction and linux_signal use linux_do_sigaction
to do the actual work. That way unnecessary redundancy is avoided. The same
has been done for linux_rt_sigprocmask and linux_sigprocmask. They call
linux_do_sigprocmask to do the actual work.
The linux syscalls translate the arguments first before invoking the
FreeBSD native syscalls.

This is not yet a 'real' option but will be within some number of hours.
_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING options to work. Changes:
Change all "posix4" to "p1003_1b". Misnamed files are left
as "posix4" until I'm told if I can simply delete them and add
new ones;
Add _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls for FreeBSD and Linux;
Add man pages for _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls;
Add options to LINT;
Minor fixes to P1003_1B code during testing.
