Daniel Barlow	a7e7146887	preinit: disable nolibc ... - it stopped working with 22.11->23.05 - linking statically against musl is about 17k, so this is costing us 11k or so	2023-06-18 23:04:26 +01:00
Daniel Barlow	5dd0c6e3c0	rewrite preinit as very small C program ... By using the kernel "nolibc" header to avoid requiring a C library, we can bring the initramfs size to around 4k This does involve a tiny bit of inline mips assembly which I'm not sure about. gcc seems unwilling to generate the code to load $gp at function entry of main(), so we do it by hand - but I'd rather find out why gcc doesn't.	2023-04-15 18:27:39 +01:00
