Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base.
It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and
the base is:
commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2
Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200
Prepare v4.1.3-rt3
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We
should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

And of +course, you need to save them if you care about them, before calling +another procedure. Some of the above registers do have special meanings +that you should be aware of: + + r1: The addil instruction is hardwired to place its result in r1, + so if you use that instruction be aware of that. + + r2: This is the return pointer. In general you don't want to + use this, since you need the pointer to get back to your + caller. However, it is grouped with this set of registers + since the caller can't rely on the value being the same + when you return, i.e. you can copy r2 to another register + and return through that register after trashing r2, and + that should not cause a problem for the calling routine. + + r19-r22: these are generally regarded as temporary registers. + Note that in 64 bit they are arg7-arg4. + + r23-r26: these are arg3-arg0, i.e. you can use them if you + don't care about the values that were passed in anymore. + + r28,r29: are ret0 and ret1. They are what you pass return values + in. r28 is the primary return. When returning small structures + r29 may also be used to pass data back to the caller. + + r30: stack pointer + + r31: the ble instruction puts the return pointer in here. + + +r3-r18,r27,r30 need to be saved and restored. r3-r18 are just + general purpose registers. r27 is the data pointer, and is + used to make references to global variables easier. r30 is + the stack pointer. + |
