Line 109:
internally the processor maps R13 (SP) to a different address in it's register file. And, all can be represented by the value 0xD in hexadecimal or 1101 in binary.
=== Calling Convention Cheat Sheets ==
Here is a quick overview of common calling conventions. Note that the calling conventions are usually more complex than represented here (for instance, how is a large struct returned? How about a struct that fits in two registers? How about va_list's?). Look up the specifications if you want to be certain. It may be useful to write a test function and use gcc -S to see how the compiler generates code, which may give a hint of how the calling convention specification should be interpreted.
