2012-05-02remove some junk from x86_64 start filesRich Felker-4/+0
looks like nik copied these "extra arguments" from the i386 code. they're not actually arguments there, just 1-byte instructions to make sure the stack is aligned to 16 bytes after all the other arguments are pushed. since each push is 8 bytes on x86_64, they happened to have no effect here, but their presence is confusing and a minor waste of space.

2012-05-02remove attempts to be pie-compatible from i386 crt1.sRich Felker-6/+3
it does not work; after further consideration, a separate Scrt1.s for pie really is essential. it would be nice if the unified approach worked, but the linker fails to generate the correct PLT entries and instead puts textrels in the main program, which don't work because the kernel maps the text read-only. new Scrt1.s will be committed soon in place of this.
2012-02-06add support for init/finit (constructors and destructors)Rich Felker-7/+56
this is mainly in hopes of supporting c++ (not yet possible for other reasons) but will also help applications/libraries which use (and more often, abuse) the gcc __attribute__((__constructor__)) feature in "C" code. x86_64 and arm versions of the new startup asm are untested and may have minor problems.
2011-09-18initial commit of the arm portRich Felker-0/+13
this port assumes eabi calling conventions, eabi linux syscall convention, and presence of the kernel helpers at 0xffff0f?0 needed for threads support. otherwise it makes very few assumptions, and the code should work even on armv4 without thumb support, as well as on systems with thumb interworking. the bits headers declare this a little endian system, but as far as i can tell the code should work equally well on big endian. some small details are probably broken; so far, testing has been limited to qemu/aboriginal linux.
