kern.features.linux: 1 meaning linux 32 bits binaries are supported
kern.features.linux64: 1 meaning linux 64 bits binaries are supported
The goal here is to help 3rd party applications (including ports) to determine
if the host do support linux emulation

POSIX requires these members to be of type void * rather than the
char * inherited from 4BSD. NetBSD and OpenBSD both changed their
fields to void * back in 1998. No new build failures were reported
via an exp-run.

AT_SECURE auxv entry has been added to the Linux 2.5 kernel to pass a
boolean flag indicating whether secure mode should be enabled. 1 means
that the program has changes its credentials during the execution.
Being exported AT_SECURE used by glibc issetugid() call.

sysent.
sv_prepsyscall is unused.
sv_sigsize and sv_sigtbl translate signal number from the FreeBSD
namespace into the ABI domain. It is only utilized on i386 for iBCS2
binaries. The issue with this approach is that signals for iBCS2 were
delivered with the FreeBSD signal frame layout, which does not follow
iBCS2. The same note is true for any other potential user if
sv_sigtbl. In other words, if ABI needs signal number translation, it
really needs custom sv_sendsig method instead.

Due to an off by one the code would read an entry past the table, as
opposed to the last entry which contains the nosys handler.

1. Linux sigset always 64 bit on all platforms. In order to move Linux
sigset code to the linux_common module define it as 64 bit int. Move
Linux sigset manipulation routines to the MI path.
2. Move Linux signal number definitions to the MI path. In general, they
are the same on all platforms except for a few signals.
3. Map Linux RT signals to the FreeBSD RT signals and hide signal conversion
tables to avoid conversion errors.
4. Emulate Linux SIGPWR signal via FreeBSD SIGRTMIN signal which is outside
of allowed on Linux signal numbers.
