Subject: [9fans] changes to loader elf generation
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 36ee1616-ead8-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

The loader code to produce ELF or ELF64 binaries is now consolidated
into /sys/src/cmd/8l/elf.[ch], and it no longer modifies (in
loader-dependent ways) the text-start virtual address to produce a
physical equivalent.  In the process, bugs such as incorrect
byte-order header elements were fixed.  There are new options in all
the loaders that can produce ELF binaries (i.e., not kl): -k marks the
ELF file as a kernel rather than user executable, and -Fphys sets the
text-start physical address to `phys' instead of the text-start
virtual address.  See 8l(1).

Note that 9boot can now load ELF64 kernels.

Sorry, `-Fphys' should be `-Pphys'.
