This file contains the relevant part of config/i386/i386.h from the
GNU C source code which describes how each register is used.
/* 1 for registers that have pervasive standard uses
and are not available for the register allocator.
On the 80386, the stack pointer is such, as is the arg pointer. */
#define FIXED_REGISTERS \
/*ax,dx,cx,bx,si,di,bp,sp,st,st1,st2,st3,st4,st5,st6,st7,arg*/ \
{ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1 }
/* 1 for registers not available across function calls.
These must include the FIXED_REGISTERS and also any
registers that can be used without being saved.
The latter must include the registers where values are returned
and the register where structure-value addresses are passed.
Aside from that, you can include as many other registers as you like. */
