When It Fits Best

  • - Use it according to the documented role: Floating temporary register.
  • - Consult the applicable ISA or ABI specification for concrete read, write, or execution semantics.

When Not To Use It This Way

  • - Do not apply the integer temporary-register t* rules to this entry.
  • - Do not infer behavior not defined by this page or the applicable specification from the ABI name.
