Until now, I was always doing chmod +x before running my files on the
Mac. Now files get created +x. There's no change when overwriting
an existing file. I needed to gmake clean my build to remove the
example programs without +x, so cvmach can create them with +x.
This manual is in the new mdoc(7) format. All existing ack manuals
use the old man(7) format. This might be a problem if someone can't
display mdoc(7) files.
The build system doesn't install the cvmach(6) manual; that might
happen later. The current build system installs manuals in two
different places, and doesn't install some manuals, so I don't know
what to do.
This preserves the name and value of every symbol. The type and other
info of a symbol might be lost. In gdb, one can now "disas main" or
"disas '.ret'" to disassemble functions by name.
Most symbols are in sections, so I also teach cvmach to emit the Mach
section headers. The entry point in plat/osx*/descr moves down to
make room for the section headers and LC_SYMTAB.
I fix some bugs in calculations of cvmach. They were wrong if ROM had
a greater alignment than TEXT, or if DATA did not start on a page
boundary. I introduce machseg[] to simplify the mess of variables in
main(). I declare most functions as static. Also, cvmach becomes the
first program to #include <object.h>.
These produce Mach-o executables for Mac OS X on Intel or PowerPC
processors. Our code generator for PowerPC (mach/powerpc) still has
bugs. Some examples seem to run, but startrek crashes. Our code
generator for Intel (mach/i386) is better.
There is a problem with job control. If you run paranoia or startrek,
then suspend the job (^Z) and resume it ('fg' in bash), then read(2)
might fail with EINTR.
