Subject: [PATCH XTF 2/4] build: Drop unnecessary register clobbers
Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2017 11:59:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1506596372-24393-2-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1506596372-24393-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>

The code in question is executing __HYPERVISOR_multicall which is 2-parameter
hypercall, which means that args 3-6 are preserved (as opposed to the
arguments in the multicall_entry_t list, which are clobbered).

GCC 4.4 in CentOS 6 can't cope with the ebp clobber.
