I have the following program:
SECTION .data ; data section
msg1: db "Hello World -- 1",10,0 ; the string to print, 10=cr
msg: db "Hello World",10 ; the string to print, 10=cr
len: equ $-msg ; "$" means "here"
; len is a value, not an address
SECTION .text ; code section
global main ; make label available to linker
extern printf
main: ; standard gcc entry point
mov edx,len ; arg3, length of string to print
mov ecx,msg ; arg2, pointer to string
mov ebx,1 ; arg1, where to write, screen
mov eax,4 ; write command to int 80 hex
int 0x80 ; interrupt 80 hex, call kernel
push msg1
call printf
add esp, 4
mov ebx,0 ; exit code, 0=normal
mov eax,1 ; exit command to kernel
int 0x80 ; interrupt 80 hex, call kernel
When I assembled/linked it, I used:
nasm -f elf burtp1.asm
gcc burtp1.o
when i ran it, I got two lines of output.:
[burt@linux2 ~]$ ./a.out
Hello World
Hello World -- 1
When I redirected it, I got:
[burt@linux2 ~]$ ./a.out > foo
[burt@linux2 ~]$ cat foo
Hello World
Why was the output from using printf not redirected?
