If we use multiple source of interrupts, for example, using SCLP
console to print information while using I/O interrupts, we need
to have a re-entrant register saving interruption handling.

So the primary reason is to print during I/O interrupts (which we
already do, but usually never trigger - handle_io_int())


Instead of saving at a static memory address, let's save the base
registers and the floating point registers on the stack.

".. in case of I/O interrupts".

OK



Note that we keep the static register saving to recover from the
RESET tests.

and for all other types of interrupts.

OK

Same for the other macro.

OK

not integers. sizeof(int) == 4.

hum, yes, I just do not know from where I took the word "integer" here!.


"doublewords" should be the right s390x speak.

in fact they are named general registers in the POP.
(which indeed are doublewords :) )

What about the FPC?

Seems I forgot it.
I will update.
Thanks.
