Hi,
Can someone explain me what should be the stack layout and register value( if there is any restriction ) before calling ret_from_syscall for Alpha. Again in entry.S i find may places where we make current ( Register 8) as below
lda $8,0x3fff bic $30,$8,$8
If someone can expain what happens in the above two assembly statement it will be really helpful.
Thanks in advance.
