/* This is the canonical entry point, usually the first thing in the text
segment. The SVR4/i386 ABI (pages 3-31, 3-32) says that when the entry
point runs, most registers' values are unspecified, except for:
%rdx Contains a function pointer to be registered with `atexit'.
This is how the dynamic linker arranges to have DT_FINI
functions called for shared libraries that have been loaded
before this code runs.
%rsp The stack contains the arguments and environment:
0(%rsp) argc
LP_SIZE(%rsp) argv[0]
...
(LP_SIZE*argc)(%rsp) NULL
(LP_SIZE*(argc+1))(%rsp) envp[0]
