Subject: Re: [PATCH-WIP 01/13] xen/arm: use r12 to pass the hypercall number
to the hypervisor

This would be massively simplified if you didn't try to inline the HVC.
Does it really need to be inline?

Please, do not do this. It won't work in Thumb, where the encodings are
different.
It is reasonable to expect anyone building Xen to have reasonably new
tools, you you can justifiably use
AFLAGS_thisfile.o := -Wa,-march=armv7-a+virt
in the Makefile and just use the hvc instruction directly.
Of course, this is only practical if the HVC invocation is not inlined.
If we can't avoid macro-ising HVC, we should do it globally, not locally
to the Xen code. That way we at least keep all the horror in one place.
Cheers
