With the startup code moved to C, implementing support for constructors and deconstructors is fairly easy to implement.
Examples for code size impact:

This is only an RFC as I'm not 100% sure it belong into nolibc. But at least the code is visible as an example.
Also it is one prerequisite for full ksefltest_harness.h support in nolibc, should we want that. --- tools/include/nolibc/crt.h | 23 ++++++++++++++++++++++- tools/testing/selftests/nolibc/nolibc-test.c | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
