1 Function Calls and In-Process Method Invocation:
4 Out-of-Process Method Invocation:
9 edx: pointer to parameter info block (PIB), described below
11 Call the 32-bit address stored at 0x7fff0000 to invoke the method.
14 ebx, esi, edi, ebp, esp: preserved
15 eax: pointer to exception, or NULL if none.
16 If there is an exception, the user part of the syscall
17 function will search for an exception handling function
18 that covers the calling address. If none is found,
19 it will assume that it is a language without exception
20 handling, and return the exception to the caller in eax.
22 edx: pointer to args, with out params filled in; in params
23 may be clobbered. This will be the same pointer as
24 was passed in by the caller.
27 params on stack (low addr to high), ids replaced with pointers,
28 at least 4 bytes of spare space beyond the high element
31 edx: pointer to caller information struct, if such was
37 params on stack (low addr to high), in params may be clobbered
38 eax: pointer to exception, or NULL if none.
39 ebx, esi, edi, ebp, esp: should be preserved
40 ecx, edx: may be clobbered
43 esp is stack pointer, grows down, decrement before store
46 The object ID is stored as a 32-bit quantity at an offset
47 specified by calling a method TBD.
49 Wrapper object creation:
50 The function to create wrapper objects is specified by calling a method
51 TBD. The function shall conform to the local ABI, and takes an ID as a
52 32-bit integer as the first parameter, and a pointer to the class as
53 the second. It returns a pointer.
55 Wrapper objects may be preemptively declared to avoid infinite loops by
59 All fields are padded so that basic types are naturally aligned.
