Hi,
Any reason why the magic numbers from qemu-binfmt-conf.sh are not just
16 bytes long as those reported by "readelf --file-header"? For
example:
$ readelf --file-header /bin/true | grep Magic:
Magic: 7f 45 4c 46 01 01 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
Using only the first 16 bytes avoids the need to have separate entries
for i386 and i486, given that they are emulated by the same program
(qemu-i386). The others still need separate entries because of
endianess.
Regards,
