[PATCH v2 12/22] tools/nolibc: export environ as a weak symbol on s390

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Tue Jan 10 2023 - 02:30:02 EST


From: Sven Schnelle <svens@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The environ is retrieved from the _start code and is easy to store at
this moment. Let's declare the variable weak and store the value into
it. By not being static it will be visible to all units. By being weak,
if some programs already declared it, they will continue to be able to
use it. This was tested on s390 both with environ inherited from
_start and extracted from envp.
