This is how the dynamic linker arranges to have DT_FINI functions called for shared libraries that have been loaded before this code runs. sp ($29) The stack contains the arguments and environment: 0(%esp) argc 4(%esp) argv[0] ... (4*argc)(%esp) NULL (4*(argc+1))(%esp) envp[0] ... NULL ra ($31) The return address register is set to zero so that programs that search backword through stack frames recognize the last stack frame. */ #ifdef PIC /* A macro to (re)initialize gp.
