Exactly the one above?
I mean, small structures are passed in registers and not per reference ?
Linuxppc passes structures per reference while the above ABI states to
pass them in registers if they are smaller than 8 bytes.
Maybe this is the problem I see. Hm, I need to implement it then.
My libffi port has only a few failures in the small struct area.
