John Baldwin 80ee17c028 stand: Improve error handling when loading ELF files
Previously all the 'goto out' statements after the image was loaded into
memory returned success rather than an error.  This is despite comments
indicating some of these conditions were in fact errors, and some of
these error conditions (such as missing PT_DYNAMIC) are treated as errors
in the kernel linker.

In addition, when failing to looking up the symbols for the linker
set, those cases returned failure leaking memory (though it's clear
from the original code from commit ca49b3342d that only the second
failure was intended to be an actual error).

To avoid more confusion, move the assignment of `ret` to just before
the `out` label so that `goto out` always returns an error.  This is a
more consistent pattern with other code in the tree that tends to use
labels for the error case.

Restructure some other code to avoid a few bogus errors.
Specifically, a symbol table is not required so don't treat lack of a
symbol table as an error.  Also, if the start symbol for the module
metadata linker set is not found, don't treat that as an error either.

FreeBSD Source:

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory. Additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information.

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7), config(8), FreeBSD handbook on building userland, and Handbook for kernels for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

For information on the CPU architectures and platforms supported by FreeBSD, see the FreeBSD website's Platforms page.

For official FreeBSD bootable images, see the release page.
