What does CSU in glibc stand for?


I was reading an article on C startup, and it refers to the function __libc_csu_init. Could anyone tell me what CSU stands for?


Solution

  • I found a reference to "C start up" in the libc mailing list.
    It's far from definitive, but I imagine it's probably correct given what the function does.
