# Some OS-specific preliminaries for Linux.

# Memory layout
#
#          0 - 0x08047ffff - reserved for the kernel
# 0x08048000 - 0xbffffffff - available for user programs
# 0xc0000000 - 0xfffffffff - reserved for the kernel
== code 0x09000000
== data 0x0a000000

# Syscalls

# We don't have libc, so we need to know Linux's precise syscall layout.
