#define START ((void (**)(int)) 0x0fff)

*START = &fun_foo();

I haven’t seen this before. What is happening here? Is void (**)(int) a function pointer?

    void (**)(int) is a pointer to a pointer to a function that takes an int and returns nothing.

    So START is apointer to a function pointer, and *START is the actual function pointer which is set to point to fun_foo.
