I would think that you have two alternatives;
     1) Use a debugging tool and see how it is implemented
        by your compiler OR
     2) Use the excellent UCR Standard Library

The first option would probably not be very informative and there
are likely legal matters involved.

The second option however provides documented and well explained
functions for a whole slew of functions written specifically for
assembler (including Scanf, Printf, Malloc etc.). It is available
from anonymous FTP: UCRMATH.UCR.EDU and more info is available in
DR. Dobbs Journal, March 1992.
YOU may call me if you have any questions.
