Hello,
I'm curious if it's possible to provide /usr/include/elf.h file on OpenBSD to
improve its niceness to software porting from other Unixes. Following patch
adds this for me and is tested with GHC where I'd like to kill code like:
#if !defined(openbsd_HOST_OS)
# include <elf.h>
#else
/* openbsd elf has things in different places, with diff names */
# include <elf_abi.h>
#endif
I assume other apps dealing with ELF needs to do the similar thing for OpenBSD
support. I've checked and /usr/include/elf.h is available on Solaris 10,
Solaris 11, various Linuxes, NetBSD 7.x and FreeBSD 10.x. In patch below, elf.h
is a result of copy of elf_abi.h with small edit.
Thanks,
Karel
