Alan Modra ab79d6e2 2013-11-21T06:12:35 This separates the 32-bit sysv/linux/bsd code from the 64-bit linux code, and makes it possible to link code compiled with different options to those used to compile libffi. For example, a -mlong-double-128 libffi can be used with -mlong-double-64 code. Using the return value area as a place to pass parameters wasn't such a good idea, causing a failure of cls_ulonglong.c. I didn't see this when running the mainline gcc libffi testsuite because that version of the test is inferior to the upstreamm libffi test. Using NUM_FPR_ARG_REGISTERS rather than NUM_FPR_ARG_REGISTERS64 meant that a parameter save area could be allocated before it was strictly necessary. Wrong but harmless. Found when splitting apart ffi.c into 32-bit and 64-bit support.
