/*********************************************************

Light-weight-syscall code
|
||||
32/64-bit Light-Weight-Syscall ABI
|
||||
|
||||
r20 - lws number
|
||||
r26,r25,r24,r23,r22 - Input registers
|
||||
r28 - Function return register
|
||||
r21 - Error code.
|
||||
* - Indicates a hint for userspace inline asm
|
||||
implementations.
|
||||
|
||||
Scracth: Any of the above that aren't being
|
||||
currently used, including r1.
|
||||
Syscall number (caller-saves)
|
||||
- %r20
|
||||
* In asm clobber.
|
||||
|
||||
Return pointer: r31 (Not usable)
|
||||
Argument registers (caller-saves)
|
||||
- %r26, %r25, %r24, %r23, %r22
|
||||
* In asm input.
|
||||
|
||||
Return registers (caller-saves)
|
||||
- %r28 (return), %r21 (errno)
|
||||
* In asm output.
|
||||
|
||||
Caller-saves registers
|
||||
- %r1, %r27, %r29
|
||||
- %r2 (return pointer)
|
||||
- %r31 (ble link register)
|
||||
* In asm clobber.
|
||||
|
||||
Callee-saves registers
|
||||
- %r3-%r18
|
||||
- %r30 (stack pointer)
|
||||
* Not in asm clobber.
|
||||
|
||||
If userspace is 32-bit:
|
||||
Callee-saves registers
|
||||
- %r19 (32-bit PIC register)
|
||||
|
||||
Differences from 32-bit calling convention:
|
||||
- Syscall number in %r20
|
||||
- Additional argument register %r22 (arg4)
|
||||
- Callee-saves %r19.
|
||||
|
||||
If userspace is 64-bit:
|
||||
Callee-saves registers
|
||||
- %r27 (64-bit PIC register)
|
||||
|
||||
Differences from 64-bit calling convention:
|
||||
- Syscall number in %r20
|
||||
- Additional argument register %r22 (arg4)
|
||||
- Callee-saves %r27.
