Yeah it's super annoying and you have to resort to all sorts of hackery to get around it. But then that's just low level dev in a nutshell.

Of course it depends on the target platform because otherwise, e.g. register starved architectures would have crippled the speed on register rich architectures.

@Fast-Nop True, but even on x86_64 it isn't standardized between win64 and sysv for example

@12bitfloat Then again, Windows isn't sticking to any sort of standard such as POSIX. That Microsoft ghetto is the result of decades of "embrace, extend, extinguish".

Wouldn't advise doing cross boundry efiabi->sysv64 calls 🤦♂️
