to an architecture-specific value defined in <machine/elf.h>. This solves problems on large-memory systems that have a high value for MAXDSIZ. The load address is controlled by a new macro ELF_RTLD_ADDR(vmspace). On the i386 it is hard-wired to 0x08000000, which is the standard SVR4 location for the dynamic linker. On the Alpha, the dynamic linker is loaded MAXDSIZ bytes beyond the start of the program's data segment. This is the same place a userland mmap(0, ...) call would put it, so it ends up just below all the shared libraries. The rationale behind the calculation is that it allows room for the data segment to grow to its maximum possible size. These changes have been tested on the i386 for several months without problems. They have been tested on the Alpha as well, though not for nearly as long. I would like to merge the changes into 3.1 within a week if no problems have surfaced as a result of them. |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $Id: README,v 1.13 1998/09/13 09:38:34 markm Exp $ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel and the contents of /etc. Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it wouldn't even run).
