You assert that declaring a parameter as "register" instructs the compiler that callers should pass in the argument on the stack, but the function should then copy it to a register? Can you cite a reference?
(I admit in advance I can't cite a reference for my assertion that it asks to pass the argument in a register. And we all know the "register" keyword is more or less an unfunny joke to the compiler anyway.) |
