Subject: [PATCH] x86-64: ia32entry adjustments
Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2007 09:20:22 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <47610766.76E4.0078.0@novell.com> (raw)
This addresses several points:
- CLEAR_RREGS' clearing of R9 became redundant with the recent change
to cstar_tracesys' saving/restoring %r9
- LOAD_ARGS32 has no need for re-loading %r8-%r11, except in the case
of cstar_tracesys, where %r9 must be re-loaded
- the recent change to sysenter handling aimed for full compatibility
with native i386 code, but didn't go as far as making the code match
that behavior even for the non-traced case (i386 loads %ebp from
(%ebp) in all cases)
- that same recent patch failed to recognize the possibility to
eliminate the re-loading for %r8d in cstar_tracesys
