Re: Dumping IA64 function pointers (was Re: Nuking unexec)

What we really need to do is to find all the places where function pointers are being dumped and make them be XD_OPAQUE_PTR_CONVERTIBLE instead of whatever they are now. We would also have to write the encoding and decoding functions, but from what I've read so far, that would not be exceptionally difficult. I'm willing to help with this, but I have no access to an IA64 box. I'll commit OG's stuff later today so everybody can see it. -- Jerry James http://www.ittc.ku.edu/~james/
