A portable foreign function interface library

Compilers for high level languages generate code that follow certain conventions. These conventions are necessary, in part, for separate compilation to work. One such convention is the "calling convention". The calling convention is a set of assumptions made by the compiler about where function arguments will be found on entry to a function. A calling convention also specifies where the return value for a function is found. Some programs may not know at the time of compilation what arguments are to be passed to a function. For instance, an interpreter may be told at run-time about the number and types of arguments used to call a given function. `Libffi' can be used in such programs to provide a bridge from the interpreter program to compiled code. The `libffi' library provides a portable, high level programming interface to various calling conventions. This allows a programmer to call any function specified by a call interface description at run time. FFI stands for Foreign Function Interface. A foreign function interface is the popular name for the interface that allows code written in one language to call code written in another language. The `libffi' library really only provides the lowest, machine dependent layer of a fully featured foreign function interface. A layer must exist above `libffi' that handles type conversions for values passed between the two languages.

Checksum e date di osservazione

For an APT source, signature verification authenticates the repository metadata chain and the Packages index containing this source-reported artifact digest. It does not certify package safety.

3.5.2-2.fc44 / i686Observed Sep 1, 2026 to Sep 1, 2026

Verification status: Metadata observed; artifact bytes were not independently fetched or hashed by this catalog import. The digest below is source-reported.

Source-reported sha256: 3a78eff74aa9aa22d2442dac8ac29e720e6e50189a7be6b1dd732b290f069f58

After downloading that exact artifact, compare its bytes with the source-reported expected digest:

printf '%s %s\n' '3a78eff74aa9aa22d2442dac8ac29e720e6e50189a7be6b1dd732b290f069f58' 'libffi-3.5.2-2.fc44.i686.rpm' | sha256sum --check --strict -

A match establishes equality with the repository metadata value. It does not establish safety or catalog-side artifact retrieval.
