2.5: Register Usage

As discussed above, the call instruction does not automatically save any registers. It is the responsibility of the callee to save and restore any registers which must be preserved across subroutine calls. The callee is responsible for saving callee-preserved registers to the program stack and restoring them before returning to the caller.
