It is desirable to run kboot as the first program in some LinuxBoot
environments. This is the traditional "pid 1" or "init" program. When
running as pid 1. rovide a minimal environment based on what sysvinit,
u-root, initramfs-tools and other like projects do. We mount /dev, /sys,
/proc, make symlinks from /dev/fd to /dev/proc, and create /tmp, /run,
and /var. We also setup stdin/out/err to the console, set the tty
characteristics of same and block the appropriate signals.
This is indended as an environment that never does a fork/exec. If
that's required, the process groups, session leaders and all things
POSIX terminal handlers will need to be added.
Unlike the general purpose linux projects in this area, no attempt is
made to support very old kernels.
When not pid 1, we skip all of the above.

All of the archsw fmtdev functions treat DEVT_DISK as a call to
disk_fmtdev. Set all disks' dv_fmtdev to disk_fmtdev so devformat
will return the same thing.

Put the console into raw mode on startup. This allows the menus to work
as expected. Boot is now interruptable.
Note: Likely should restore the terminal settings on most exists. It's
not clear the best way to do this, and most shells have an auto stty
sane anyway, so note it for future improvement.

Implement a stripped down termios, obtained from various files in musl
and HOST_ or host_ prepended to most things and a few unavoidable style
tweaks. Only implements the bits of termios we need for the boot loader:
put the terminal into raw mode, restore terminal settings and speed
stuff.

Clients of libsa are expected to implement exit(). The current exit just
loops forever. It is better to really exit: when running as init that
will reboot the system. When not running as init, other programs can
recover (not that we support running as init, but when we do in the
future, this is still the rigtht thing).

Add support for aarch64. exec.c and ldscript are copied from the EFI
version with #ifdefs for the differences. Once complete, I'll refactor
them. host_syscall.S implements a generic system call. tramp.S is a
first attempt to create a tramoline that we can use to jump to the
aarch64 kernel. Add aarch64-specific startup and stat files as well.
exec.c tweaked slightly to avoid bringing in bi_load(), which will come
in later. Includes tweaks to stat due to name differences between names
on different Linux architectures.

conf.c is the same now between powerpc64 and amd64, so move it up to
kboot. Move powerpc file formats defines to ppc64_elf_freebsd.c

This was copied from powerpc/ofw and has never been used. We also don't
care about -DAIM. It's only relevant for in-kernel structures, which we
don't use in this userland program.

Linux 2.4 introduced getdents64. Switch to using it because aarch64

dv_cleanup is specified almost everywhere. Use nullsys instead of NULL
to indicate 'do nothing'. Also, be consistent in trailing commas that

Create a wrapper for the mount system call. To ensure a sane early boot
environment and to gather data we need for kexec, we may need to mount
some special filesystems.

Early in boot, we need to create the normal stdin/out/err env for the
boot loader to run in. To do that, we need to open the console and
duplicate the file descriptors which requires dup(2). Implement a
wrapper as host_dup.

Linux's /dev/fd is implemented inside of /proc/self/fd, so we may need
to create a symlink to it early in boot. "/dev/fd" and "/dev/std*" might
not be strictly required for the boot loader, but should be present for
maximum flexibility.

Add host_getpid() so we can know if we're running as init(8) or not. If

Implement stat(2) and fstat(2) in terms of newfstatat and newfstat
system calls respectively (assume we have a compat #define when
there's no newfstat and just a regular fstat and do so for ppc).
Snag struct kstat (the Linux kernel stat(2), et al interface) from musl
and attribute properly.

Add the common O_ constants for the open, fcntl, etc system calls. They
are different than FreeBSD's. While they can differ based on
architecture, they are constant for architectures we care about, and
those architectures use the 'generic' version so future architectures
will also work.

Fallback to currdev when NULL is passed in when 'rootdev' is NULL. Other

Split _start into _start and _start_c (inspired by musl and the powerpc
impl is copied from there). This allows us to actually get the command

Get amd64 compiling. However, the current kboot supports an old way of
enumerating memory and the new way needs to be incorporated as well. The
powerpc folks could use either, it seems and newer powerpc platforms
need some changes for kboot to work anyway.
This commit includes the linker script, trampoline code to start the new
kernel, Linux system calls and the necessary configuration glue needed
to build the binaries.
This includes a quick hack to get multiboot support, but we need to
really share these defines. The multiiboot2.h is the minimum needed to
build. We have multiboot information in three places now, so a
refactoring is in order.
This should be considered, at best, preliminary and experimental for
anybody wishing to try it out.
