2023-05-18 02:52:26 <veltas      > And then have a separate assembly file with most of the code in it that just calls out to C functions
2023-05-18 02:52:48 <veltas      > With Linux at least we're using a stable, well-documented ABI
2023-05-18 02:53:54 <veltas      > But technically you could use this for Linux as well, I suppose, so then we just have one 'unix' AMD64 port, consisting of two files

2023-05-18 02:56:54 <veltas      > Most of the registers I've used for VM state are preserved by SysV (by design, I think it's just rax that isn't, to allow easier calling of external functions if that was ever wanted)
2023-05-18 02:58:15 <veltas      > So then it's just stuff like the parameters for the I/O functions that need fixing/preserving (as you did for freebsd)
