The code that leads up to this is: #define NORMAL_EXCEPTION_PROLOG(intno) \ mtspr SPRN_SPRG_WSCRATCH0, r10; /* save one register */ \ mfspr r10, SPRN_SPRG_THREAD; \ stw r11, THREAD_NORMSAVE(0)(r10); \ stw r13, THREAD_NORMSAVE(2)(r10); \ mfcr r13; /* save CR in r13 for now */\ mfspr r11, SPRN_SRR1; \ DO_KVM BOOKE_INTERRUPT_##intno SPRN_SRR1; \ [...] .macro DO_KVM intno srr1 #ifdef CONFIG_KVM_BOOKE_HV BEGIN_FTR_SECTION mtocrf 0x80, r11 /* check MSR[GS] without clobbering reg */ bf 3, kvmppc_resume_\intno\()_\srr1 b kvmppc_handler_\intno\()_\srr1 kvmppc_resume_\intno\()_\srr1: END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(CPU_FTR_EMB_HV) #endif .endm [...] So where is r8 held in a scratch register here? The only registers that I can see stored in scratch registers are r10, r11, r13 > PPC_STL r3, VCPU_GPR(r10)(r11) > mfctr r7 > PPC_STL r12, VCPU_GPR(r12)(r11) > + PPC_STL r13, VCPU_GPR(r13)(r11) r13 however is in a scratch register / scratch memory location according to the code above :).
