Subject: Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 01/35] xen/arm64: macros: Introduce an assembly macro to alias x30
Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2019 14:28:05 +0000	[thread overview]

In-Reply-To: <20190722213958.5761-2-julien.grall@arm.com>



Julien Grall writes:

> The return address of a function is always stored in x30. For convenience,
