Hi,

I MFCed some fixes to the linuxulator today. One major change is
correcting the handling of the linux mmap function. This may break some
not so good programmed audio programs (mostly some few bad behaving
games). If you get hit by this, don't be afraid. The MFC of a change to
the sound system (and an entry to UPDATING) will be done "soon" by
Ariff.

Except for those audio apps, all programs which had problems because of
this should work better now. If you stumble upon a problem, please
report to emulation at FreeBSD.org.

Note: while more MFCs of fixes and missing linux syscalls are planned
(before 6.3), the MFC of the linux-2.6 compatibility is not planned (if
you need it, you have to update to 7.0 release when it comes out).

If someone wants to help test some more patches for the linuxulator in
-stable, please contact me and I take you into the loop (the more
testers, the faster -stable will see the MFCs). What I need are people
which compile and runtest the changes. Most of the changes are straight
forward, we only have one part which causes a problem because of an
unknown reason (either bad testing hardware or a missing change in my
patches).

Bye,
Alexander.
