Move the relocation definitions to the common elf header so that DTrace
can use them on one architecture targeted to a different one.
Add the additional ELF types defines in Sun's "Linker and Libraries"
manual.
to be compatible with symbol versioning support as implemented by
GNU libc and documented by http://people.redhat.com/~drepper/symbol-versioning
and LSB 3.0.
Implement dlvsym() function to allow lookups for a specific version of
a given symbol.
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.

o Remove the unused and non-standard SHT_NUM, PT_COUNT and DT_COUNT.
o Add the STV_DEFAULT, STV_INTERNAL, STV_HIDDEN and STV_PROTECTED
symbol visibility constants.
o Add the ELF32_ST_VISIBILITY and ELF64_ST_VISIBILITY macros to
get the symbol visibility from the st_other field.
o Add the ELFOSABI_AIX, ELFOSABI_OPENVMS and ELFOSABI_NSK constants.
o Add the ET_LOOS, ET_HIOS, ET_LOPROC and ET_HIPROC constants.
o Further flesh out the list of machine types. Note that EM_ALPHA
remains non-standard. The standard value for EM_ALPHA is given
by EM_ALPHA_STD (which is a non-standard name :-)
o Add the SHN_LOOS, SHN_HIOS and SHN_XINDEX constants.
o Add the SHT_INIT_ARRAY, SHT_FINI_ARRAY, SHT_PREINIT_ARRAY, SHT_GROUP
and SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX constants.
o Add the SHF_MERGE, SHF_STRINGS, SHF_INFO_LINK, SHF_LINK_ORDER,
SHF_OS_NONCONFORMING, SHF_GROUP and SHF_MASKOS constants.
o Add the PF_MASKOS and PF_MASKPROC constants.
o Add the STB_LOOS andf STB_HIOS constants.
o Add the STT_COMMON, STT_LOOS and STT_HIOS constants.

32-bit entity. Also, don't cast the resulting symbol type value to
a datatype smaller than the st_info field type as a quick way to
mask off the upper bits as it may cause inconsistent behaviour when
the macro is used (without explicit casting) on varargs functions.

the relevant characteristics of the native machine, for building
and checking Elf_Ehdr structures.
Add structures to represent ELF "note" headers. Add defines for the
note types used in ELF core files.
binutils.
Ensure that three of the structures are the size that binutils writes
them. I just love code that doesn't share header files to avoid
problems like these.
With this change rtld-elf works on alpha.
applications. Here's how it works.
The kernel should include <machine/elf.h> to get the definitions
for the native architecture. It can reference the various ELF
structures with generic names like Elf_Sym, Elf_Shdr, etc. A define
__ELF_WORD_SIZE is also available with the value 32 or 64 as
appropriate for the native architecture.
Generic applications should include <elf.h>, which is just a wrapper
for <machine/elf.h>.
Applications such as object file dumpers that need to deal with
foreign ELF files can include <sys/elf32.h> and/or <sys/elf64.h>.
Both can be included from the same source file if desired. The
structure names must be referenced using wordsize-specific names
like Elf32_Sym, Elf64_Shdr, etc.
I haven't change the alpha stuff, but I haven't broken it either.
work in progress and has never booted a real machine. Initial
development and testing was done using SimOS (see
http://simos.stanford.edu for details). On the SimOS simulator, this
port successfully reaches single-user mode and has been tested with
loads as high as one copy of /bin/ls :-).
