Subject: [PATCH v2 20/22] nolibc/stdlib: Implement `getauxval(3)` function
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2023 08:24:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230110072434.3863-21-w@1wt.eu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230110072434.3863-1-w@1wt.eu>

From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org>

Previous commits save the address of the auxiliary vector into a global
variable @_auxv. This commit creates a new function 'getauxval()' as a
helper function to get the auxv value based on the given key.

The behavior of this function is identic with the function documented
in 'man 3 getauxval'. This function is also needed to implement
'getpagesize()' function that we will wire up in the next patches.
