Hi,
I am not using any one of the other register banks for any ISR. So the
other banks should not be reserved for anything. It must be used for
data storage.
 I am using SDCC verison 2.9 and following are the compilation flags.
--debug -small-model --stack-auto

Memory map shows that:
00H-07H used as register bank0
08H - _bp
09H -1FH are unused.
20H - indicates as T but no data is stored even though I don't have
any bit variables.
21H onwards data stored and then stack follows.

Thanks
Saleem
