For the following code:

int main()
{
mmap(NULL, 0x1000, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
return 0;
}

GCC generates this:

00001000 <main>:
1000: push %ebp
1001: mov $0xc0,%eax
1006: mov $0x1000,%ecx
100b: mov $0x3,%edx
1010: push %edi
1011: xor %ebp,%ebp
1013: mov $0xffffffff,%edi
1018: push %esi
1019: mov $0x22,%esi
101e: push %ebx
101f: xor %ebx,%ebx
1021: push %ebp <--- arg6 here
1022: push %ebp
1023: mov 0x4(%esp),%ebp
1027: int $0x80
1029: pop %ebp
102a: add $0x4,%esp
102d: xor %eax,%eax
102f: pop %ebx
1030: pop %esi
1031: pop %edi
1032: pop %ebp
1033: ret
