(See http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/LinuxKernelRegisterUsage). " 14.3.4. Linux kernel register usage For the PowerPC architecture, the Linux kernel uses the following registers: R1: stack pointer R2: pointer to task_struct for the current task R3-R4: parameter passing and return values R5-R10: parameter passing R13: small data area pointer R30: GOT pointer R31: frame pointer A function can use r0 and r3 - r12 without saving and restoring them. r13 - r31 have to be preserved so they must be saved and restored when you want to use them. Also, cr2 - cr4 must be preserved, while cr0, cr1, cr5 - cr7, lr, ctr and xer can be used without saving & restoring them. [ Posted Tue, 15 Jul 2003 by Paul Mackerras to [email protected] ].
