  2. Weak symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_symbol

    On Linux, the linker option --whole-archive changes that behavior. [10] The weak function attribute is supposed to be used on function declarations. Using it on a function definition may yield unexpected results, depending on the compiler and optimization level. [11] In Solaris, the weak symbols are also used within kernel.

  3. x86 calling conventions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions

    This calling convention was common in the following 16-bit APIs: OS/2 1.x, Microsoft Windows 3.x, and Borland Delphi version 1.x. Modern versions of the Windows API use stdcall , which still has the callee restoring the stack as in the Pascal convention, but the parameters are now pushed right to left.

  4. Executable and Linkable Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_and_Linkable_Format

    An ELF file has two views: the program header shows the segments used at run time, whereas the section header lists the set of sections.. In computing, the Executable and Linkable Format [2] (ELF, formerly named Extensible Linking Format) is a common standard file format for executable files, object code, shared libraries, and core dumps.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64

    AMD64 (also variously referred to by AMD in their literature and documentation as “AMD 64-bit Technology” and “AMD x86-64 Architecture”) was created as an alternative to the radically different IA-64 architecture designed by Intel and Hewlett-Packard, which was backward-incompatible with IA-32, the 32-bit version of the x86 architecture.

  6. Calling convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calling_convention

    The 64-bit version of the x86 architecture, known as x86-64, AMD64, and Intel 64, has two calling sequences in common use. One calling sequence, defined by Microsoft, is used on Windows; the other calling sequence, specified in the AMD64 System V ABI, is used by Unix-like systems and, with some changes, by OpenVMS .

  7. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Since 7 October 2024, Python 3.13 is the latest stable release, and it and, for few more months, 3.12 are the only releases with active support including for bug fixes (as opposed to just for security) and Python 3.9, [55] is the oldest supported version of Python (albeit in the 'security support' phase), due to Python 3.8 reaching end-of-life.

  8. Magic number (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_number_(programming)

    In Version Seven Unix, the header constant was not tested directly, but assigned to a variable labeled ux_mag [10] and subsequently referred to as the magic number. Probably because of its uniqueness, the term magic number came to mean executable format type, then expanded to mean file system type, and expanded again to mean any type of file.

  9. NOP (code) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOP_(code)

    The Python programming language has a pass statement which has no effect when executed and thus serves as a NOP. It is primarily used to ensure correct syntax due to Python's indentation-sensitive syntax ; for example the syntax for definition of a class requires an indented block with the class logic, which has to be expressed as pass when it ...
