One of the entries in this block is the thread-local storage table for that thread. [1] Each call of TlsAlloc returns a unique index into this table. Each thread can independently use TlsSetValue(index, value) and obtain the specified value via TlsGetValue(index) , because these set and look up an entry in the thread's own table.
Further, along with the #[start] function attribute or the #[no_main] crate attribute, it allows the user to define a C-style entry point for the program. [ 10 ] Rust has used many versions of symbol mangling schemes that can be selected at compile time with an -Z symbol-mangling-version option.
GCC and Clang can be made to use a similar calling convention by using __stdcall with the regparm function attribute or the -mregparm=3 switch. (The stack order is inverted.) It is also possible to produce a caller clean-up variant using cdecl or extend this to also use SSE registers. [18]
A segment can have one (and in the case of the inpage attribute, two) of five alignment attributes: […] Byte, which means a segment can be located at any address. […] Word, which means a segment can only be located at an address that is a multiple of two, starting from address 0H.
During linking, a strong symbol can override a weak symbol of the same name. In contrast, in the presence of two strong symbols by the same name, the linker resolves the symbol in favor of the first one found. This behavior allows an executable to override standard library functions, such as malloc(3).
The one that has received the most attention is Clang, a newer compiler supporting C, C++, and Objective-C. Primarily supported by Apple, Clang is aimed at replacing the C/Objective-C compiler in the GCC system with a system that is more easily integrated with integrated development environments (IDEs) and has wider support for multithreading.
The C standard library, sometimes referred to as libc, [1] is the standard library for the C programming language, as specified in the ISO C standard. [2] Starting from the original ANSI C standard, it was developed at the same time as the C POSIX library, which is a superset of it. [3]
In the C programming language, restrict is a keyword, introduced by the C99 standard, [1] that can be used in pointer declarations. By adding this type qualifier, a programmer hints to the compiler that for the lifetime of the pointer, no other pointer will be used to access the object to which it points.
