* Fix symfind.Laurent Desnogues2009-08-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this patch fixes an issue in symfind. Assume you have the following symbols: Address Size 0045bca0 00000080 T s0 0045bd20 00000112 T s1 You'll notice that s1 is s0 + size. So the current symfind will find that address 0045bd20 belongs to s0 instead of s1.

* Make the ELF loader aware of backwards compatibilityblueswir12009-03-131-2/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most 64 bit architectures I'm aware of support running 32 bit code of the same architecture as well. So x86_64 can run i386 code easily and ppc64 can run ppc code. Unfortunately, the current checks are pretty strict. So you can only load e.g. an x86_64 elf binary on qemu-system-x86_64, but no i386 one. This can get really annoying. I first encountered this issue with my multiboot patch, where qemu-system-x86_64 was unable to load an i386 elf binary because the elf loader rejected it. The same thing happened again on PPC64 now. The firmware we're loading is a PPC32 elf binary, as it's shared with PPC32. But the platform is PPC64. Right now there is a hack for this in the ppc cpu.h definition, that simply sets the type to PPC32 in system emulation mode. While that works fine for the firmware, it's no good if you also want to load a PPC64 kernel with -kernel. So in order to solve this mess, I figured the easiest way is to make the elf loader aware of platforms that are backwards compatible. For now I was only sure that x86_64 does i386 and ppc64 does ppc32, but maybe there are other combinations too. This patch is a prerequisite for having a working -kernel option on PPC64.

This also fixes the bug with mips elf64 symbols in current Qemu trunk. * Use quicksort and binary search for symbol lookup. * Remove unneeded entries from symbol table. This reduced a typical table size (linux mips kernel) from 1764487 to 11656 entries.
