(I'll be we know which compiler and platform they developed this on...)
Minimally change them to C89 comments to make GCC happy. (this is kinda funny
as the file has piece derived from FreeBDS 3.2)
Also fix FreeBSD id style.
page of the image to load section headers and if we let the text section
start at zero, it corrupts the section table when its loaded. With this
change, the loader gets as far as the 'ok' prompt.
they can be used with cell operators like !.
As I did this, I noticed the whole CELL thing might have problems with
big endian architectures with sizeof(int)!=sizeof(void*).
file is processed by passing its name in argv[1]:
return(mod_loadobj(typestr, argv[1]));
however, it is not tested to see if argv[1] actually is defined.
At best, mod_loadobj() near line 244 returns an error like
"can't find 'garbage'" but if the "filename" entered is sufficiently
long, some buffer gets overrun. Of course, "load -t filename" is
actually a typo because we meant to type "load -t mfs_root filename";
nevertheless, a hung machine seems like too harsh a punishment for
such a small typo...

longer includes machine/elf.h.
* consumers of elf.h now use the minimalist elf header possible.
This change is motivated by Binutils 2.11.0 and too much clashing over
our base elf headers and the Binutils elf headers.
This version has a step debugger, which now completely replaces the
old trace feature. Also, we moved all of the FreeBSD-specific MI
code to loader.c, reducing the diff between this and the official
FICL distribution.
fatal trap. Also, reload the GDT register to point to BTX's GDT before
playing around with the segment registers to return to real mode. This is
helpful if the kernel causes a fatal exception before it has setup its own
IDT and fault handlers. For example, if one happens to break mtx_init().
Without these changes BTX would recursively page fault (if paging was not
disabled) or triple fault and reset the CPU (without the GDT reload)
instead of providing a potentially useful register dump.
