35 * \brief i386 context switch
37 * x86 function calling convention:
38 * --------------------------------
39 * arguments | callee-saved | extra caller-saved | return
40 * [callee-clobbered] | | [callee-clobbered] |
41 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------
42 * eax edx ecx | ebx edi esi ebp [*] | <none> | eax, edx
44 * [*] In the frame-pointers case rbp must hold a base address for the
45 * current stack frame.
47 * asm_switch_context() can be considered as a normal function call, so we need
48 * to save all the callee-clobbered registers minus the return registers.
