Modified files:
sys/boot/common bootstrap.h load_elf.c
sys/boot/i386/libi386 elf_freebsd.c
Log:
First shot at loading elf symbols. Things are a bit strange because
of the ..umm.. "wierd" way binutils lays out the file. The section
headers are nearly at the end of the file and this is a problem when
loading from a .gz file which can't seek backwards (or has a limited
reverse seek, ~2K from memory).
This is intended to be compatable with the ddb/db_elf.c code and the
alpha/libalpha/elf_freebsd.c layout. I've studied these (which are NetBSD
derived) but did it a bit differently. Naturally the process is similar
since it's supposed to end up with the same result.
