Hi All,

does anyone have pointers to a specification of the de-facto ABI for
HPUX 11 on PA-RISC 2.0? I have "The 32-bit PA-RISC Run-time
Architecture Document" for both HP-UX 11.0 and 10.2 but it doesn't
inspire confidence. First both versions claim that stack alignment is
64-bytes but my test programs compiled with HPUX 11 C exhibit only
16-byte alignment, and second, the document doesn't appear to specify
structure passing conventions.

AdvThanksance

Have you searched the HP documentation web site?

Yes. "32-bit PA-RISC Run-time Architecture Document" is the official
reference from HP. But it differs in a few vital respects to programs
compiled with the HP-UX 11 C compiler. I'm maintaining foreign function
interface for Smalltalk and need a definitive spec of the HP-UX 11
PA-RISC ABI. Alas, the official document doesn't serve and the HP web
site (e.g. http://devresource.hp.com/drc/site_map.jsp,
http://docs.hp.com/cgi-bin/search) doesn't appear to have anything else
more relevant.
