oh. i thought brandelf's purpose was to adjust an executable's OS ABI on a general basis. an example would be having solaris executables with the OS ABI set to 0. although freebsd won't support running these binaries brandelf could be used to correct the OS ABI value which might come in handy if you're using freebsd for backup purposes e.g. or is this purpose covered by a different application in the base dir? cheers. alex Kostik Belousov schrieb am 2010-01-23: > On Sat, Jan 23, 2010 at 01:07:44PM +0100, Alexander Best wrote: > > patch is pretty self explanatory i guess. brandelf should now be > > able to > > handle all OSes defined in the current SCO elf specs (26.10.2009). > > cheers. > > alex > > Index: usr.bin/brandelf/brandelf.1 > > =================================================================== > > --- usr.bin/brandelf/brandelf.1 (revision 202848) > > +++ usr.bin/brandelf/brandelf.1 (working copy) > > @@ -27,7 +27,7 @@ > > .\" > > .\" $FreeBSD$ > > .\" > > -.Dd February 6, 1997 > > +.Dd January 23, 2010 > > .Dt BRANDELF 1 > > .Os > > .Sh NAME > > @@ -62,10 +62,25 @@ > > .Ar string > > ABI type. > > Currently supported ABIs are > > +.Dq Li SVR4 , > > +.Dq Li HPUX , > > +.Dq Li NetBSD , > > +.Dq Li Linux , > > +.Dq Li Hurd , > > +.Dq Li 86Open , > > +.Dq Li Solaris , > > +.Dq Li AIX , > > +.Dq Li IRIX , > > .Dq Li FreeBSD , > > -.Dq Li Linux , > > +.Dq Li TRU64 , > > +.Dq Li Modesto , > > +.Dq Li OpenBSD , > > +.Dq Li OpenVMS , > > +.Dq Li HPNSK , > > +.Dq Li AROS , > > +.Dq Li FenixOS > > and > > -.Dq Li SVR4 . > > +.Dq Li ARM . > > .It Ar file > > If > > .Fl t Ar string > > @@ -95,7 +110,7 @@ > > .Rs > > .%A The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. > > .%T System V Application Binary Interface > > -.%D April 29, 1998 (DRAFT) > > +.%D October 26, 2009 (DRAFT) > > .%U http://www.sco.com/developer/devspecs/ > > .Re > > .Sh HISTORY > > Index: usr.bin/brandelf/brandelf.c > > =================================================================== > > --- usr.bin/brandelf/brandelf.c (revision 202848) > > +++ usr.bin/brandelf/brandelf.c (working copy) > > @@ -49,12 +49,25 @@ > > const char *str; > > int value; > > }; > > -/* XXX - any more types? */ > > static struct ELFtypes elftypes[] = { > > - { "FreeBSD", ELFOSABI_FREEBSD }, > > + { "SVR4", ELFOSABI_NONE }, > > + { "HPUX", ELFOSABI_HPUX }, > > + { "NetBSD", ELFOSABI_NETBSD }, > > { "Linux", ELFOSABI_LINUX }, > > + { "Hurd", ELFOSABI_HURD }, > > + { "86Open", ELFOSABI_86OPEN }, > > { "Solaris", ELFOSABI_SOLARIS }, > > - { "SVR4", ELFOSABI_SYSV } > > + { "AIX", ELFOSABI_AIX }, > > + { "IRIX", ELFOSABI_IRIX }, > > + { "FreeBSD", ELFOSABI_FREEBSD }, > > + { "TRU64", ELFOSABI_TRU64 }, > > + { "Modesto", ELFOSABI_MODESTO }, > > + { "OpenBSD", ELFOSABI_OPENBSD }, > > + { "OpenVMS", ELFOSABI_OPENVMS }, > > + { "HPNSK", ELFOSABI_NSK }, > > + { "AROS", ELFOSABI_AROS }, > > + { "FenixOS", ELFOSABI_FENIXOS }, > > + { "ARM", ELFOSABI_ARM } > > }; > > int > > Index: sys/sys/elf_common.h > > =================================================================== > > --- sys/sys/elf_common.h (revision 202848) > > +++ sys/sys/elf_common.h (working copy) > > @@ -113,6 +113,7 @@ > > #define ELFOSABI_OPENVMS 13 /* Open VMS */ > > #define ELFOSABI_NSK 14 /* HP Non-Stop Kernel > > */ > > #define ELFOSABI_AROS 15 /* Amiga Research OS > > */ > > +#define ELFOSABI_FENIXOS 16 /* FenixOS */ > > #define ELFOSABI_ARM 97 /* ARM */ > > #define ELFOSABI_STANDALONE 255 /* Standalone > > (embedded) application */ > This does not make a sense. brandelf(1) is (was) used as a way to > specify > hint for the FreeBSD kernel under which ABI emulation the binary > should > be activated. > We do not support, and I believe never will, ABIs added in the patch.
