As of version 2.6.0 of the Linux kernel, dev_t is a 32-bit unsigned integer
on all platforms. Prior the 2.6 kernel dev_t type was an unsigned short.
However, since the firs commit of the Linuxulator, mknod syscall get int dev
argument.
Also, there is some confusion here, while the kernel declares a dev_t type
as a 32-bit sized, the user-space dev_t type can be size of 64 bits, e.g.,
in the Glibc library.
To avoid confusion and to help porting of the Linuxulator to other platforms
use explicit l_dev_t for dev argument of mknod syscalls.
Have more accruate comments. While #if, #else, etc are copied to the
header files, lines that don't start with # are not. And #include files
are only output to sysinc (which winds up at the front of init_sysent.c
which seems a bit odd). This is all radically undocumented, and likely
has drifted somewhat from 4.4BSD and what other systems do (they've
drifted too, fwiw).

In Linux if this flag is set, PROT_READ implies PROT_EXEC for mmap().
Linux/i386 set this flag automatically if the binary requires executable stack.
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC flag will be used in the next Linux mmap() commit.
The set_robust_list system call request the kernel to record the head
of the list of robust futexes owned by the calling thread. The head
argument is the list head to record.
The get_robust_list system call should return the head of the robust
list of the thread whose thread id is specified in pid argument.
The list head should be stored in the location pointed to by head
argument.
In contrast, our implemenattion of get_robust_list system call copies
the known portion of memory pointed by recorded in set_robust_list
system call pointer to the head of the robust list to the location
pointed by head argument.
So, it is possible for a local attacker to read portions of kernel
memory, which may result in a privilege escalation.
