To: current@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Wed, 22 Apr 1998 06:50:57 +0000 (GMT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I would like to run an ELF kernel. Specifically, I would like to experiment with abstracting libkern as a seperate ELF segment in the running kernel that I could map into a program's address space via a section aware dlopen() (sort of a poor man's "libelf"). I would hack the loader to not load the (shared object) section type I'd use for this. This would tend to fix the !@#$%! "ps: proc size mismatch ..." messages, once and for all. So, per the subject: "ELF kernels: When?". Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
