- =================================
- INTERNAL KERNEL ABI FOR FR-V ARCH
- =================================
-
-The internal FRV kernel ABI is not quite the same as the userspace ABI. A
-number of the registers are used for special purposed, and the ABI is not
-consistent between modules vs core, and MMU vs no-MMU.
-
-This partly stems from the fact that FRV CPUs do not have a separate
-supervisor stack pointer, and most of them do not have any scratch
-registers, thus requiring at least one general purpose register to be
-clobbered in such an event. Also, within the kernel core, it is possible to
-simply jump or call directly between functions using a relative offset.
-This cannot be extended to modules for the displacement is likely to be too
-far. Thus in modules the address of a function to call must be calculated
-in a register and then used, requiring two extra instructions.
