hi,
I read that with the new calling conventions, there are a variable
number of registers. So, if I understand correctly, if a function call
takes 2 parameters, then there are only 2, and if there are 30
parameters, there will be a frame holding 30 registers. Is this about
right?
Yes. The argument passing opcodes take a variable amount of registers
How does this stand WRT the 32 registers in Parrot. Is this still the
case, or will this change as well?
This will change. Register frame size and thus the amount of registers
will be adapted to the actual usage of a subroutine.
