Blackfin arch supports two binfmts: `flat' and `FDPIC ELF'. Sometimes we
need deal with them differently. For example, when application crashes,
something like below will be dumped:
Undefined instruction
- May be used to emulate instructions that are not defined for
a particular processor implementation.
CURRENT PROCESS:
COMM=testmain PID=63
TEXT = 0x01180000-0x011dd258 DATA = 0x01300258-0x013ac4a0
BSS = 0x013ac4a0-0x010a0000 USER-STACK = 0x010bfec0
For `flat' binfmt, there is a sperate BSS. But for `FDPIC ELF', .bss is
usually put into the same segment as .data. So DATA has include .bss
section. The BSS for `FDPIC ELF' is meaningless and confusing, like the
one shown above. So I want to omit BSS for `FDPIC ELF' in dumping.
When mapping address to symbol in application, we also need deal with
`flat' and `FDPIC ELF' binfmts differently, since `flat' has a header
before the code.
This patch addes a new `name' field to struct linux_binfmt and
initialize it in each binfmt type.
A second blackfin arch patch will use this field to distinguish `flat'
binfmt with `FDPIC ELF'.
Is it OK? Any comments?
Thanks,
Jie

the other possibility would be to not make linux_binfmt definitions
static and put appropriate prototypes in the fs.h header ... then you
could do:
if (current->binfmt == aout_format) {
... aout stuff ...
}
then again, this goes against the dynamic nature of the binfmt itself
... and the idea that the binfmt should not matter to anything else in
the kernel once it's executing ...

Please, post it. It a bit hard to see what you're actually trying to do.
