Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] tools/nolibc: Add fread() to stdio.h
Date: Mon,  5 Jan 2026 11:36:27 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260105023629.1502801-2-daniel@thingy.jp> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260105023629.1502801-1-daniel@thingy.jp>

Add a very basic version of fread() like we already have for fwrite().
