Was getting high hopes for a moment...

@Sergej: I just started wondering on usage of fp registers, when I call a 
routine that uses floating
point I see that the fp registers are not marked as reserved by the compiler, 
what do you think?

The procedure below (test) uses $f0 and $f2 but they are not marked as 
allocated:

         # Register at,v0,v1,a0,a1,a2,a3,t0,t1,t2,t3,t4,t5,t6,t7,t8,t9,ra 
allocated
         jal     P$TEST_$$_TEST
         nop
         # Register at,v0,v1,a0,a1,a2,a3,t0,t1,t2,t3,t4,t5,t6,t7,t8,t9,ra 
released

could this be a bug? (I have also modified 
tcpuparamanager.get_volatile_registers_fp to return [] so
i'd expect to see $f0..$f19 pushed to stack but I see nothing)

Could of course be me causing this bug, but I checked my diff to trunk, I have 
not knowingly changed
fp behaviour besides changing get_volatile_registers_fp

It's either a bug or unimplemented feature, not your fault. Currently calls allocate non-integer register types only if caller uses registers of that type itself. This is good for calls between procedures with same calling convention (i.e. equal sets of volatile registers), but not for calls where callee's set of volatile registers is larger than one of caller's.

But probably you can force 'use' of fp registers by adding one of them after 
'asm' block.

Regards,
Sergei
