How can I implement tls.callbacks in fasm??


I get this error when trying to include this aplib.inc

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\crap\fasmexp\aplib.inc [7]:

aP_pack PROTO
c :DWORD, :DWORD, :DWORD, :DWORD, :DWORD, :DWORD
error: illegal instruction.

tls.callback? I have no idea what is this, but such definition 'name PROTO :DWORD, :DWORD' is masm-specific. Convert the code to fasm first. And use 'Search', this topic was mentioned about three times afair

tls? threadlocalstorage?

fs:[18] is a pointer to fs, aka teb, and from there you can check for the tlspointer

I know TLS stands for Thread Local Storage, but what does it have to do with

It doesn't have anything to do with the proto... It was just a seprate question.

THREAD LOCAL STORAGE CALLBACKS ... How can I implement these in fasm?

tls callback is only used in NT Windows. in 9x it does not have any effects. u need to write the tls directory manually in fasm..
Code:
data 9
;here goes the tls directory.
end data
    


here's one example
Code:
include 'win32ax.inc'

.code
start :
      ret

proc tls_callback DllHandle, Reason, Reserved
     .if [Reason] = 1
      invoke MessageBox, 0, "Process_Attach", "tls_callback", 0
     .elseif {Reason] = 0
      invoke MessageBox, 0, "Process_Detach", "tls_callback", 0
     .endif
endp

.end start

.data

data 9
dd 0                    ;Raw Data Start VA
dd 0                    ;Raw Data End VA
dd tls_index            ;Address of Index
dd tls_callbacks        ;Address of Callbacks
dd 0                    ;Size of Zero Fill
dd 0                    ;Reserved

tls_index dd 0
tls_callbacks dd tls_callback, 0
end data

    


the tls_callbacks is virtual address that points to array of tls callbacks function and terminated by 0 and are called one by one by Windows. tls_callback procedure itself have the same arguments as DLL entrypoint. Please note that all addresses in tls directory are NOT rva. I hope Privalov may include tls macro set in the future in the std win32 include.

data 9
dd 0 ;Raw Data Start VA
dd 0 ;Raw Data End VA
dd tls_index ;Address of Index
dd tls_callbacks ;Address of Callbacks
dd 0 ;Size of Zero Fill
dd 0 ;Reserved

tls_index dd 0
tls_callbacks dd tls_callback, 0
end data

I think it's probably just a structure
