Description Filip Pizlo 2011-07-06 13:10:42 PDT
The DFG JIT op_call implementation invokes flushRegisters() to ensure that any live registers are spilled and later refilled on-demand, since in our calling convention all registers are caller-save.  However, in the current implementation flushRegisters() may also flush registers that are killed by the call.
