I was experimenting and have the following assembly code, which works very well, except that I get a "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" message right before my program ends:
GLOBAL _start
%define ___STDIN 0
%define ___STDOUT 1
%define ___SYSCALL_WRITE 0x04
segment .data
segment .rodata
L1 db "hello World", 10, 0
segment .bss
segment .text
_start:
mov eax, ___SYSCALL_WRITE
mov ebx, ___STDOUT
mov ecx, L1
mov edx, 13
int 0x80
It doesn't matter whether or not I have ret
at the end; I still get the message.
What's the problem?
I'm using x86 and nasm.
