Hello

I'm trying to get IRIX sproc() emulation going on. sproc() spawns a new
lightweight process. I plan to emulate this with a call to fork1() with
the FORK_SHAREDVM.

On IRIX, the child has a stack at offset 0x0400000 from the parent
stack. If try to call fork1() with stack (SP - 0x0400000) and stacksize
(vm_maxssize - vm_minssize), the child just does a SIGSEGV on a stack
access.

Any idea why?=20

More input: sproc() takes an entry argument with the address of the
function where the child should start. I emulated this by setting the
child's PC saved on trapframe to entry. But I doublt that this can cause
the problem.

Speaking about fork1(9): the man page seems a bit outdated...
