The SLB miss handler uses r3 for the faulting address but r12 is mostly able to be freed up to save r3 in. It just requires SRR1 be reloaded again on error. It would be more conventional to use r12 for SRR1 (and use r11 to save r3), but slb_allocate_realmode clobbers r11 and not r12.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
