vector. Hence this direct call.
A follow-on change is to modify this interface so that it takes
- thread OR frame OR tpid as a parameter, and returns a dummy
+ thread OR frame OR ptid as a parameter, and returns a dummy
frame handle. The handle can then be used further down as a
parameter to generic_save_dummy_frame_tos(). Hmm, thinking
about it, since everything is ment to be using generic dummy
On a RISC architecture, a void parameterless generic dummy
frame (i.e., no parameters, no result) typically does not
need to push anything the stack and hence can leave SP and
- FP. Similarly, a framelss (possibly leaf) function does
+ FP. Similarly, a frameless (possibly leaf) function does
not push anything on the stack and, hence, that too can
leave FP and SP unchanged. As a consequence, a sequence of
void parameterless generic dummy frame calls to frameless
