there was still one overflow possible. strlcpy is faster anyway
because it doesn't unexpectedly zero the entire length of the string
when copying short strings....
so dest[MAXPATHLEN] falls outside the buffer. This bug corrupted
arenas[0] defined in libc's malloc.c on PowerPC when kldxref is shared,
which triggered a delayed SIGSERV.
cannot easily be analyzed due to there being no debugger yet.
The SIGSEGV only happens when kldxref is linked shared.
Since kldxref(8) is needed for a release build, having it not
dump core is important.
that immediately follows the only call to it. maketempfile() uses
mkstemp(), so the temporary file has already been opened and using
fopen() again just opens the file twice. This also fixes the invalid
mode used on the fopen().
While here, assign NULL to fxref after fclose() because we test for
fxref being !NULL to determine if we have the (temporary) hints file
open.
means:
o Remove Elf64_Quarter,
o Redefine Elf64_Half to be 16-bit,
o Redefine Elf64_Word to be 32-bit,
o Add Elf64_Xword and Elf64_Sxword for 64-bit entities,
o Use Elf_Size in MI code to abstract the difference between
Elf32_Word and Elf64_Word.
o Add Elf_Ssize as the signed counterpart of Elf_Size.
MFC after: 2 weeks
relocation is not sufficient for ELF relocatable object format
modules, since accessing the module metadata involves following
pointers between different ELF sections.
This allows kldxref to correctly build linker.hints on the amd64
platform.
on variables read out of raw kld files. Unlike other platforms the value
will be in an Elf_Rela, not in the data section of the elf file.
