* The main trick with this program is that initially, we ourselves are not
- * dynamicly linked. This means that we cannot access any global variables or
- * call any functions. No globals initially, since the Global Offset Table
+ * dynamically linked. This means that we cannot access any global variables
+ * or call any functions. No globals initially, since the Global Offset Table
* (GOT) is initialized by the linker assuming a virtual address of 0, and no
* function calls initially since the Procedure Linkage Table (PLT) is not yet
* initialized.
*
* Fortunately, the linker itself leaves a few clues lying around, and when the
* kernel starts the image, there are a few further clues. First of all, there
- * is Auxiliary Vector Table information sitting on which is provided to us by
- * the kernel, and which includes information about the load address that the
- * program interpreter was loaded at, the number of sections, the address the
- * application was loaded at and so forth. Here this information is stored in
- * the array auxvt. For details see linux/fs/binfmt_elf.c where it calls
- * NEW_AUX_ENT() a bunch of time....
