I understood correctly?
On a 64-bit system without parameters, the code gives "Segmentation fault".
Is there no " Segmentation fault" on the 32-bit system when started without parameters?

If my assumptions are correct, when creating a stack in the "main" function of the 64-bit system, a layer in the form of a red zone from the previous stack is filled with machine zeros and the parameters get no value, which leads to segmentation. And when creating a frame in the 32-bit system of this red zone is not! And the garbage from the old frame gets into the parameters and therefore there is no segmentation. But this is still not correct.

P.S. Thanks "Auto Save Recovery" accidentally closed the tab.

fmd

fmd(1M)                                                   System Administration Commands                                                   fmd(1M)

NAME

       fmd - fault manager daemon

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/fm/fmd/fmd [-V] [-f file] [-o opt=val] [-R dir]

DESCRIPTION

       fmd is a daemon that runs in the background on each Solaris system. fmd receives telemetry information relating to problems detected by the
       system software, diagnoses these problems, and initiates proactive self-healing activities  such  as  disabling  faulty  components.   When
       appropriate, the fault manager also sends a message to the syslogd(1M) service to notify an administrator that a problem has been detected.
       The message directs administrators to a knowledge article on Sun's web site, http://www.sun.com/msg/, which explains more about the problem
       impact and appropriate responses.

       Each  problem  diagnosed by the fault manager is assigned a Universal Unique Identifier (UUID). The UUID uniquely identifes this particular
       problem across any set of systems. The fmdump(1M) utility can be used to view the list of problems diagnosed by the  fault  manager,  along
       with  their UUIDs and knowledge article message identifiers. The fmadm(1M) utility can be used to view the resources on the system believed
       to be faulty. The fmstat(1M) utility can be used to report statistics kept by the fault manager. The fault manager is started automatically
       when  Solaris  boots, so it is not necessary to use the fmd command directly. Sun's web site explains more about what capabilities are cur-
       rently available for the fault manager on Solaris.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported

       -f file                 Read the specified configuration file prior to searching for any of the default fault manager configuration files.

       -o opt=value            Set the specified fault manager option to the specified value. Fault manager options are currently a Private inter-
                               face; see attributes(5) for information about Private interfaces.

       -R dir                  Use the specified root directory for all pathnames evaluated by the fault manager, instead of the default root (/).

       -V                      Print the fault manager's version to stdout and exit.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0                       Successful completion

       1                       An error occurred which prevented the fault manager from initializing, such as failure to open the telemetry trans-
                               port.

       2                       Invalid command-line options were specified.

FILES

       /etc/fm/fmd             Fault manager configuration directory

       /usr/lib/fm/fmd         Fault manager library directory

       /var/fm/fmd             Fault manager log directory

NOTES

       The Fault Manager is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

        svc:/system/fmd:default

       The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command. Administrators should not disable the Fault Manager service.
