Very nice work! You can find some comments below.

Please change this so that the two fields are on separate lines.
Also, is there a reason you're using "unsigned long" and not "l_ulong"?
On amd64 long are 64bit long while on i386 they are 32 bits, so there 
might be problems, if you're trying to 'emulate' 32bit linux programs on 
amd64.

+#define LINUX_LOWERWORD	0x0000ffff

Technically, it's the lower half-word.

Are you using sx instead of rwlocks because you need to sleep in 
linux_schedtail() while holding the lock?

+em_find(struct proc *p, int locked)

M_WAITOK | M_ZERO);

+

Why not use KASSERT(p != NULL, ("process not found in proc_init\n")); ?

+		p->p_emuldata = em;
+		PROC_UNLOCK(p);
+	} else {
+		/* lookup the old one */
+		em = em_find(td->td_proc, EMUL_UNLOCKED);

According to sys/proc.h you're supposed to hold the proc lock when 
accessing p->p_emuldata.

+		KASSERT(em != NULL, ("proc_init: emuldata not found in exec case.\n"));
+	}
+
+	em->child_clear_tid = NULL;
+	em->child_set_tid = NULL;
+
+	/* allocate the shared struct only in clone()/fork cases
+	 * in the case of clone() td = calling proc and child = pid of
+	 * the newly created proc

CLONE_VM\n"));
+			em->shared = p_em->shared;
+			em->shared->refs++;

This is unsafe. Please use the functions in sys/refcount.h.

Again, you need to hold the proc lock when accessing p->p_emuldata.

Don't you need to hold sched_lock to access p->p_threads?

+

+	   	return;

proc lock.. :-)

+
+	child_clear_tid = em->child_clear_tid;
+	
+	EMUL_UNLOCK(&emul_lock);
+
+	EMUL_SHARED_WLOCK(&emul_shared_lock);

Is this safe?

+
+	PROC_LOCK(p);
+	p->p_emuldata = NULL;
+	PROC_UNLOCK(p);
+
+	em->shared->refs--;

sys/refcount.h

You're forgetting to free em before returning.

+

+		cup.uaddr = child_clear_tid;

Wrong indentation.

Why don't you include sys/time.h?

+
+void
+linux_schedtail(void *arg __unused, struct proc *p)

+	int error = 0;

+
+retry:	
+	/* find the emuldata */
+	em = em_find(p, EMUL_UNLOCKED);
+
+	if (em == NULL) {

+		 */
+
+	   	error = tsleep(&p->p_emuldata, PLOCK, "linux_schedtail", hz);
+		if (error == 0)
+		   	goto retry;

Why are you setting a timeout if you just retry when it expires?

+	}

+	EMUL_UNLOCK(&emul_lock);
