The Z80 port is passed through the same <I>regressions tests<A NAME="2936"></A></I> (see section <A HREF="node165.html#sec:Quality-control">7.8</A>) as the MCS51 and DS390 ports, so floating point support, support for long variables and bitfield support is fine. See mailing lists and forums about interrupt routines. <P> As always, the code is the authoritative reference - see z80/ralloc.c and z80/gen.c. The stack<A NAME="2938"></A> frame is similar to that generated by the IAR Z80 compiler. IX is used as the base pointer, HL and IY are used as a temporary registers, and BC and DE are available for holding variables. Return values<A NAME="2939"></A> for the Z80 port are stored in L (one byte), HL (two bytes), or DEHL (four bytes). The gbz80 port use the same set of registers for the return values, but in a different order of significance: E (one byte), DE (two bytes), or HLDE (four bytes). <P><P> <BR> <P> <HR> <!--Navigation Panel--> <A NAME="tex2html2345" HREF="node109.html"> <IMG WIDTH="37" HEIGHT="24" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0" ALT="next" SRC="next.png"></A> <A NAME="tex2html2339" HREF="node102.html"> <IMG WIDTH="26" HEIGHT="24" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0" ALT="up" SRC="up.png"></A> <A NAME="tex2html2333" HREF="node107.html"> <IMG WIDTH="63" HEIGHT="24" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0" ALT="previous" SRC="prev.png"></A> <A NAME="tex2html2341" HREF="node1.html"> <IMG WIDTH="65" HEIGHT="24" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0" ALT="contents" SRC="contents.png"></A> <A NAME="tex2html2343" HREF="node191.html"> <IMG WIDTH="43" HEIGHT="24" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0" ALT="index" SRC="index.png"></A> <BR> <B> Next:</B> <A NAME="tex2html2346" HREF="node109.html">4.4 The HC08 port</A> <B> Up:</B> <A NAME="tex2html2340" HREF="node102.html">4.
