#include <regdef.h>
#include <sys/asm.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>

#define O_RDWR 02

EXPORT(__start)


.set noreorder
LEAF(main)

# fd = open("/dev/tty1", O_RDWR, 0);
la a0,tty
li a1,O_RDWR
li a2,0
li v0,SYS_open
syscall

bnez a3,quit
move s0,v0 # delay slot

# write(fd, "hello, world.\n", 14);
move a0,s0
la a1,hello
li a2,14
li v0,SYS_write
syscall

# close(fd);
move a0,s0
li v0,SYS_close
syscall

quit:
li a0,0
li v0,SYS_exit
syscall

j quit
nop

END(main)

.data
tty: .asciz "/dev/tty1"
hello: .ascii "Hello, world.\n"
and here is mine make file

Code:
#
# hello-1.2/Makefile

# details.

tool-prefix	= mips-linux-gnu-

CC		= $(tool-prefix)gcc -I /home/slobodan/rtl819x-toolchain/toolchain/rsdk-1.5.5-5281-EB-2.6.30-0.9.30.3-110714/include/sys/
LD		= $(tool-prefix)ld
STRIP		= $(tool-prefix)strip

CFLAGS		= -G0 -mno-abicalls -fno-pic
LDFLAGS		= -N -s

all:		hello

hello:		hello.o
		$(LD) $(LDFLAGS) -o hello hello.o

hello.o:	hello.S
		$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c hello.S

clean:
		rm -f core a.out *.o *.s

distclean:	clean
		rm -f hello
program does compile but when I run it I get nothing as output. I did tried mips-linux-gnu-gcc and
Code:
mips-linux-gcc
from Realtek SDK but its same deal does not print hello world to console.
I also tried changing
Code:
SYS_write
to
Code:
__NR_write
and
Code:
SYS_close
to
Code:
__NR_close
but again its same deal I dont get anything printed to console. As emulator I used qemu-mips-static and my mips box (its actually MIPS router)

Have you tried to track your registers? Perhaps the branch not equal to zero is being taken and the program quits prematurely before 'hello world' is loaded and called.
