Subject: [PATCH nolibc 56/61] tools/nolibc: i386: Implement syscall with 6 arguments
Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2022 17:42:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220419004225.3952530-56-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220419004219.GA3952301@paulmck-ThinkPad-P17-Gen-1>

From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org>

On i386, the 6th argument of syscall goes in %ebp. However, both Clang
and GCC cannot use %ebp in the clobber list and in the "r" constraint
without using -fomit-frame-pointer. To make it always available for
any kind of compilation, the below workaround is implemented.

  1) Push the 6-th argument.
  2) Push %ebp.
  3) Load the 6-th argument from 4(%esp) to %ebp.
  4) Do the syscall (int $0x80).
  5) Pop %ebp (restore the old value of %ebp).
  6) Add %esp by 4 (undo the stack pointer).
