thread specific informations.
In order to do that, and in order to avoid KBI breakage with existing
infrastructure the following semantic is implemented:
- For live programs, a new member to the PT_LWPINFO is added (pl_tdname)
- For cores, a new ELF note is added (NT_THRMISC) that can be used for
storing thread specific, miscellaneous, informations. Right now it is
just popluated with a thread name.
GDB, then, retrieves the correct informations from the corefile via the
BFD interface, as it groks the ELF notes and create appropriate
pseudo-sections.

I've had a report of a sparc64 system where cc1 generates illegal
instructions. We still have to diagnose this properly, but instead of
hosing all sparc64 boxes out there, fall back to libgcc to prevent more

libcompiler_rt.a is a BSD licensed C language runtime, which implements
many routines which are linked into binaries on architectures where
certain functionality is missing (e.g. 64 bits mul/div on i386).
Unfortunately, libcompiler_rt cannot replace libgcc entirely. Certain
features, such as an unwinder for exception handling, are missing.
That's why only libgcc.a is replaced for now, because this one does seem
to be complete.
Tested by: rene (amd64), nwhitehorn (powerpc), droso (i386 exprun)
and many others. Thanks!

Once we use libcompiler_rt, the LIB-line must go, to prevent libgcc.a
from being built. Therefore, just hardcode the name.

TARGET_BIG_ENDIAN is now completely dead, except where it was
originally supposed to be used (internally in the toolchain building).
TARGET_ARCH has changed in three cases:
(1) Little endian mips has changed to mipsel.
(2) Big endian mips has changed to mipseb.
(3) Big endian arm has changed to armeb.
Some additional changes are needed to make 'make universe' work on arm
and mips after this change, so those are commented out for now.
UPDATING information will be forthcoming. Any remaining rough edges
will be hammered out in -current.
This is done by prepending the file to elfxx-ia64, not appending it.
Additionally, reduce diffs between Makefile.amd64 and Makefile.ia64;
instead of echo'ing defines in Makefiles, just add the needed define to
elf-fbsd-brand.c directly, as it is only used for amd64 and ia64.

and sys/boot/pc98/boot2, do not simply assign 'gcc' to CC, since compile
flags are sometimes passed via this variable, for example during the
build32 stage on amd64. This caused the 32-bit libobjc build on amd64
to fail.
Instead, only replace the first instance of clang (if any, including
optional path) with gcc, and leave the arguments alone.

Because FreeBSD no longer supports the 80386 cpu all code targeting
FreeBSD/i386 necessarily runs on i486 or higher so the compiler
built-ins can be used by default inside libstdc++ and in C++ headers.
This allows newly compiled C++ code to inline some atomic operations.
Old binaries continue to use libstdc++ functions.

This is a hack at best, I looked at the redraw code in
dialog_checklist() and took the minimal amount of it out to do
a simple "refresh" right after the items are drawn. This
doesn't hurt anything and makes the library work like it
should. There is probably a better way however =).

Unlike for modules with dso type, in elf object modules all the sections
have virtual address of zero. So, it is insufficient to add module base
address to section virtual address (as recorded in section header) to
get section address in kernel memory.
Instead, we should apply the same calculations that are performed by
kernel loaders (in boot code and in kernel) when they lay out sections
in memory.

error in /usr/lib/crtendS.o(.eh_frame); no .eh_frame_hdr table will be created.
The issue is that crtend is compiled with unwind table, and also it
places the special CIE into the .eh_frame indicating the end of section,
that is located before generated unwind table. New ld has assertion that
verifies that closing CIE is indeed the last CIE, causing the crypting
message to be issued, and refusing to generate dwarf unwind.
Add -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables to disable unwind table generation
for crtbegin/crtend. While there, disable omitting the frame pointer [1].

MIPS-III because FreeBSD relies on a number of MIPS-III features; the ABI
default would be MIPS-I which we don't intend to support. Our old default
before I switched to using the ABI default was MIPS32.
o) Add TARGET_ABI to the MIPS toolchain build process. This sets the default
ABI to one of o32, n32 or n64. If it is not set, o32 is assumed as that is
the current default.
o) Set the default GCC cpu type to any specified TARGET_CPUTYPE. This is
necessary to have a working "cc" if e.g. mips64 is specified, as binutils
will refuse to link objects using different ISAs in some cases.
o) Add support for n32 and n64 ABIs to binutils and GCC.
o) Add additional required libgcc2 stubs for n32 and n64.
o) Add support for the "mips64r2" architecture to GCC. Add the "octeon"
o) When static linking, wrap default libraries in --start-group and
--end-group. This is required for static linking to work on n64 with the
interdependencies between libraries there. This is what other OSes that
support n64 seem to do, as well.
o) Fix our GCC spec to define __mips64 for 64-bit targets, not __mips64__, the
former being what libgcc, etc., check and the latter seemingly being a
misspelling of a hand merge from a Linux spec.
o) When no TARGET_CPUTYPE is specified at build time, make GCC take the default
ISA from the ABI. Our old defaults were too liberal and assumed that 64-bit
ABIs should default to the MIPS64 ISA and that 32-bit ABIs should default to
the MIPS32 ISA, when we are supporting or will support some systems based on
earlier 32-bit and 64-bit ISAs, most notably MIPS-III.
o) Merge a new opcode file (and support code) from a later version of binutils
and add flags and code necessary to support Octeon-specific instructions.
This should also make merging opcodes for other modern architectures easier.
