I am looking at lots of assembly language code that is compiled along with c. They are using simple #define assembly without any headers in boot.s code. How does this work ?

Typically
.sfiles are processed by an assembler. Without knowing any other details, there’s nothing more to say..sfile goes in,.ofile comes out.Many assemblers provide some kind of
includedirective to allow use of headers, which would also be in assembly language.Ah, the code you linked is for use by the GNU
asassembler. If you’re on Linux or Mac, doman asto learn about it. If you’re on Windows, install MinGW or Cygwin.
