Log Message:
Go back from using %g2 (an application register) to %g7 (a system register)
for syscall returns.
while i haven't compiled or testing anything with this change, i have some
questions and issues:
- any flag day associated with thie change? one assumes not but
i've found i can't assume you and i think the same anymore :-)
- i am fairly sure you no longer require the .register directive
for %g7 that %g2 does:
! .register %g2,#scratch
--
! .register %g7,#scratch
this line should just go away.
.mrg.
