BINMISCCTL(8) BSD System Manager's Manual BINMISCCTL(8)NAME
binmiscctl -- manage binary image activators
SYNOPSIS
binmiscctl add name --interpreter path --magic magic --size size [--mask mask] [--offset offset] [--set-enabled]
binmiscctl remove name
binmiscctl disable name
binmiscctl enable name
binmiscctl lookup name
binmiscctl list
DESCRIPTION
The binmiscctl utility is the management utility for configuring miscellaneous binaries image activators in the kernel. It allows adding,
deleting, disabling, enabling, and looking up interpreters. Also, all the interpreters can be listed.
The first argument on the command line indicates the operation to be performed. Operation must be one of the following:
add name --interpreter path --magic magic --size size [--mask mask] [--offset offset] [--set-enabled]
Add a new activator entry in the kernel. You must specify a unique name, interpreter path and its arguments path, header magic bytes
that uniquely identify a suitable binary for the activator, and the size of the magic in bytes.
Optionally you may specify a mask to do a bitwise AND with the header bytes. This effectively allows you to ignore fields in the
binary header that do not uniquely indentify the binary file's type.
An offset may be specified for the magic bytes using the --offset option. By default the offset is zero.
To enable the activator entry the --set-enabled option is used. The activator default state is disabled.
The interpreter path may also contain arguments for the interpreter including #a which gets replaced by the old argv0 value in the
interpreter string.
remove name
Remove the activator entry identified with name.
disable name
Disable the activator entry identified with name.
enable name
Enable the activator entry identified with name.
lookup name
Look up and print out the activator entry identified with name.
list Take a snapshot and print all the activator entries currently configured.
EXAMPLES
Add an image activator to run the LLVM interpreter (lli) on bitcode compiled files:
# binmiscctl add llvmbc --interpreter ''/usr/bin/lli --fake-argv0=#a'' --magic ''BCxc0xde'' --size 4 --set-enabled
#a is replaced with the old argv0 value so that 'lli' can fake its argv0. Set its state to enabled.
Set the state of the llvmbc image activator to disabled:
# binmiscctl disable llvmbc
Set the state of the llvmbc image activator to enabled:
# binmiscctl enable llvmbc
Delete the llvmbc image activator:
# binmiscctl remove llvmbc
Look up and list the record for the llvmbc image activator:
# binmiscctl lookup llvmbc

Create and use an ARMv6 chroot on an AMD64 host
Use an existing source tree to build a chroot host with architecture overrides:
D=/path/to/chroot
cd /usr/src
mkdir -p $D
make world TARGET=arm TARGET_ARCH=armv6 DESTDIR=$D
make distribution TARGET=arm TARGET_ARCH=armv6 DESTDIR=$D
With emulators/qemu-user-static from the FreeBSD Ports Collection, the emulator must be copied into the jail path specified in the binmiscctl
command. Using the example above:
mkdir $D/usr/local/bin
cp /usr/local/bin/qemu-arm-static $D/usr/local/bin
Now the user can chroot into the environment normally, as root:
chroot $D

The binmiscctl command was added in FreeBSD 10.1. It was developed to support the imgact_binmisc kernel module.
