My last assembler is quite some days ago, but I'd say
1) s2 is (the address of) a constant ("*********") defined in the last line of your listing
2) eax holds the call No. (function selector) for the linux kernel interrupt 0x80 see here. As the return value in ebx is not explicitly set, it seems to rely on the value returned by sys_write to be used as the exit code.
