How about libstand(3) in /usr/src/lib/libstand,
which is used in /boot/loader(8)?
I don't think the FS support code in it does
not support multi user.
Following code is not work, but can be linked with
%cc -nostdlib -ffreestanding -static hoge.c -lstand
% file hoge
hoge: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), statically linked, stripped
% ls -l hoge
-rwxr-xr-x 1 takawata wheel 16020 10 19 17:57 hoge
%size hoge
text data bss dec hex filename
13257 264 536 14057 36e9 hoge
# size ufs.ko
text data bss dec hex filename
203060 6404 452 209916 333fc ufs.ko
==hoge.c
#include <stand.h>
#define STUB
struct fs_ops *file_system[] = {
&ufs_fsops,
NULL
};
struct devsw mydev = {
};
struct devsw *devsw[] = {
&mydev,
NULL
};
#ifdef STUB
int getchar(void)
{
return 0;
}
int ischar(void)
{
return 0;
}
void putchar(int c)
{
return ;
}
int devopen(struct open_file *of, const char *name,const char **file)
{
return EBUSY;
}
void panic(const char *msg, ...)
{
for(;;);
}
#endif
main()
{
int a;
}
