Subject: Does edk2 also link to crt0-efi like GNU-EFI
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2022 19:50:47 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+Yfj7uso=LosjTwsDe6NfbVaj7xe=GfavXMXF_Or3S+Cv6-vQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if the edk2 build system also links to
crt0-efi, like GNU-EFI?
If yes, I would also like to see how that is actually implemented. If
not, how does edk2 support custom entry functions? It is possible with
llvm backend but I am not sure how it is done in GCC and am curious,
Currently, rust does not support the custom implementation of
`lang_start` (which is started by crt0 in most platforms), so I was
trying to find ways to be able to use custom crt0 which sets up
`SystemTable` and `SystemHandler` and start the `lang_start` from it.
This way, the user will be able to call the normal `main` function
rather than using the `no_main` feature.
My blog post [1] shows how we currently use the `efi_main` function.
Yours sincerely,
Ayush Singh
