[PATCH v2 1/2] sparc/build: Remove all usage of -fcall-used* flags

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Koakuma <koachan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Remove all usage of -fcall-used* flags so that all flags used are
portable between GCC and clang.

The reasoning is as follows:

In the (normal) 32-bit ABI, %g5 and %g7 is normally reserved, and in
the 64-bit ABI, %g7 is the reserved one.
Linux turns them into volatile registers by the way of -fcall-used-*,
but on the other hand, omitting the flags shouldn't be harmful;
compilers will now simply refuse to touch them, and any assembly
code that happens to touch them would still work like usual (because
Linux' conventions already treats them as volatile anyway).
