According to manual page [1], posix spec [2] and source code like arch/mips/kernel/syscall.c, for historic reasons, the sys_pipe() syscall on some architectures has an unusual calling convention. It returns results in two registers which means there is no need for it to do verify the validity of a userspace pointer argument. Historically that used to be expensive in Linux. These days the performance advantage is negligible. Nolibc doesn't support the unusual calling convention above, luckily Linux provides a generic sys_pipe2() with an additional flags argument from 2.6.27. If flags is 0, then pipe2() is the same as pipe(). So here we use sys_pipe2() to implement the pipe(). pipe2() is also provided to allow users to use flags argument on demand.
