It only uses %al and leaves the upper 56 bits of %rax undefined. OpenVMS adds an arg count in %ah and then uses the rest of the register to hold bitmasks showing whether each register-passed argument was integer or float, and also (optionally) a pointer (stored as offset from call address) to a data structure containing type info for the stack arguments. |
