| /* |
| * This file is designed to be used as a libc alternative for minimal programs |
| * with very limited requirements. It consists of a small number of syscall and |
| * type definitions, and the minimal startup code needed to call main(). |
| * All syscalls are declared as static functions so that they can be optimized |
| * away by the compiler when not used. |
| * |
| * Syscalls are split into 3 levels: |
| * - The lower level is the arch-specific syscall() definition, consisting in |
| * assembly code in compound expressions. These are called my_syscall0() to |
| * my_syscall6() depending on the number of arguments. The MIPS |
| * implementation is limited to 5 arguments. All input arguments are cast |
| * to a long stored in a register. These expressions always return the |
| * syscall's return value as a signed long value which is often either a |
| * pointer or the negated errno value. |
| * |
| * - The second level is mostly architecture-independent. It is made of |
| * static functions called sys_<name>() which rely on my_syscallN() |
| * depending on the syscall definition. These functions are responsible |
| * for exposing the appropriate types for the syscall arguments (int, |
| * pointers, etc) and for setting the appropriate return type (often int). |
| * A few of them are architecture-specific because the syscalls are not all |
| * mapped exactly the same among architectures. For example, some archs do |
| * not implement select() and need pselect6() instead, so the sys_select() |
| * function will have to abstract this. |
| * |
| * - The third level is the libc call definition. It exposes the lower raw |
| * sys_<name>() calls in a way that looks like what a libc usually does, |
| * takes care of specific input values, and of setting errno upon error. |
| * There can be minor variations compared to standard libc calls. For |
| * example the open() call always takes 3 args here. |
| * |
| * The errno variable is declared static and unused. This way it can be |
| * optimized away if not used. However this means that a program made of |
| * multiple C files may observe different errno values (one per C file). For |
| * the type of programs this project targets it usually is not a problem. The |
| * resulting program may even be reduced by defining the NOLIBC_IGNORE_ERRNO |
| * macro, in which case the errno value will never be assigned. |
| * |
| * Some stdint-like integer types are defined. These are valid on all currently |
| * supported architectures, because signs are enforced, ints are assumed to be |
| * 32 bits, longs the size of a pointer and long long 64 bits. If more |
| * architectures have to be supported, this may need to be adapted. |
| * |
| * Some macro definitions like the O_* values passed to open(), and some |
| * structures like the sys_stat struct depend on the architecture. |
| * |
| * The definitions start with the architecture-specific parts, which are picked |
| * based on what the compiler knows about the target architecture, and are |
| * completed with the generic code. Since it is the compiler which sets the |
| * target architecture, cross-compiling normally works out of the box without |
| * having to specify anything. |
| * |
| * Finally some very common libc-level functions are provided. It is the case |
| * for a few functions usually found in string.h, ctype.h, or stdlib.h. |
| * |
| * The nolibc.h file is only a convenient entry point which includes all other |
| * files. It also defines the NOLIBC macro, so that it is possible for a |
| * program to check this macro to know if it is being built against and decide |
| * to disable some features or simply not to include some standard libc files. |
| * |
| * A simple static executable may be built this way : |
| * $ gcc -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -fno-ident -s -Os -nostdlib \ |
| * -static -include nolibc.h -o hello hello.c -lgcc |
| * |
| * Simple programs meant to be reasonably portable to various libc and using |
| * only a few common includes, may also be built by simply making the include |
| * path point to the nolibc directory: |
| * $ gcc -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -fno-ident -s -Os -nostdlib \ |
| * -I../nolibc -o hello hello.c -lgcc |
| * |
| * The available standard (but limited) include files are: |
| * ctype.h, errno.h, signal.h, stdio.h, stdlib.h, string.h, time.h |
| * |
| * In addition, the following ones are expected to be provided by the compiler: |
| * float.h, stdarg.h, stddef.h |
| * |
| * The following ones which are part to the C standard are not provided: |
| * assert.h, locale.h, math.h, setjmp.h, limits.h |
| * |
| * A very useful calling convention table may be found here : |
| * http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/syscall.2.html |
| * |
| * This doc is quite convenient though not necessarily up to date : |
