Would you like to be involved in binfmt/toolchain discussions going on
now? My plan for nommu support with musl is to start with plain ELF,
ET_DYN (PIE) form only, with both static and dynamic linking
supported. This gives behavior identical to MMU-ful archs, but of
course with no text sharing. Then we can add FDPIC as needed to get
shared text; this requires both toolchain support and library/dynamic
linker runtime changes in musl. With musl being something of a clean
slate and aiming for minimal arch-specific code, I really don't want
to carry forward legacy binfmts and associated support code, but I do
want to understand if there are any particular properties of existing
binfmts/ABIs/etc. that are important to developers/users, and I'd
like to hear if you have any input on this from the Xtensa side.
