[Need to write better notes.]
Look for files named *386* or *FreeBSD* and you'll see what
you need to implement for your architecture of choice.
The hardest thing is probably the assembly routines:
src/lib9/tas-$SYSTYPE.s and src/libthread/asm-$SYSTYPE-$OBJTYPE.s.
The former is a test and set used to implement shared-memory
spin locks. The latter is a stripped down setjmp and longjmp
used to implement stack switching in the thread library.
Also, src/libthread/$OBJTYPE.c needs to know how to set up a stack
frame for the given object type.
If you're only interested in mk and sam, you don't need to
write any assembly to do a port. Acme and samterm require everything
though, since it uses libthread.
