/* When we enter this piece of code, the program stack looks like this:
argc argument counter (integer)
argv[0] program name (pointer)
argv[1...N] program args (pointers)
argv[argc-1] end of args (integer)
NULL
env[0...N] environment variables (pointers)
NULL
When we are done here, we want
a1=argc
a2=argv[0]
a3=argv[argc+1]
ARM register quick reference:
Name Number ARM Procedure Calling Standard Role
a1 r0 argument 1 / integer result / scratch register / argc
a2 r1 argument 2 / scratch register / argv
a3 r2 argument 3 / scratch register / envp
a4 r3 argument 4 / scratch register
v1 r4 register variable
v2 r5 register variable
v3 r6 register variable
v4 r7 register variable
v5 r8 register variable
sb/v6 r9 static base / register variable
sl/v7 r10 stack limit / stack chunk handle / reg. variable
fp r11 frame pointer
ip r12 scratch register / new-sb in inter-link-unit calls
sp r13 lower end of current stack frame
lr r14 link address / scratch register
pc r15 program counter
