Linux specific things to the native fdescfs file system.
Unlike FreeBSD, the Linux fdescfs is a directory containing a symbolic
links to the actual files, which the process has open.
A readlink(2) call on this file returns a full path in case of regular file
or a string in a special format (type:[inode], anon_inode:<file-type>, etc..).
As well as in a FreeBSD, opening the file in the Linux fdescfs directory is
equivalent to duplicating the corresponding file descriptor.
Here we have mutually exclusive requirements:
- in case of readlink(2) call fdescfs lookup() method should return VLNK
vnode otherwise our kern_readlink() fail with EINVAL error;
- in the other calls fdescfs lookup() method should return non VLNK vnode.
For what new vnode v_flag VV_READLINK was added, which is set if fdescfs has beed
mounted with linrdlnk option an modified kern_readlinkat() to properly handle it.
For now For Linux ABI compatibility mount fdescfs volume with linrdlnk option:
mount -t fdescfs -o linrdlnk null /compat/linux/dev/fd

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. See build(7) and 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. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
