Hi Wine needs some of its libraries to be loaded at specific base addresses (https://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine), something FreeBSD currently lacks.
I've written a patch to the dynamic loader (/libexec/ld-elf.so.1) that loads libraries at their preferred base addresses (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=176216), as well as a port of Prelink to FreeBSD which Wine uses to set base addresses (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=176283). Both work :-), the changed dynamic loader doesn't show any problems in a few days of testing, and prelink works with the --reloc-only option as used by Wine. Please review/test/comment/commit. Thank you Damjan Jovanovic _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
