It is not completely clear to me that we can always use r11 here, but it does seem save, there is checking code (to detect conflicts here), and it is stage 1. So here goes. 2021-09-03 Segher Boessenkool <seg...@kernel.crashing.org> PR target/102107 * config/rs6000/rs6000-logue.c (rs6000_emit_prologue): On ELFv2 use r11 instead of r12 for CR save, in all cases.
