Using %rbp as a temporary register breaks frame pointer convention and breaks stack traces when unwinding from an interrupt in the crypto code. In twofish-3way, we can't simply replace %rbp with another register because there are none available. Instead, we use the stack to hold the values that %rbp, %r11, and %r12 were holding previously. Each of these values represents the half of the output from the previous Feistel round that is being passed on unchanged to the following round. They are only used once per round, when they are exchanged with %rax, %rbx, and %rcx. As a result, we free up 3 registers (one per block) and can reassign them so that %rbp is not used, and additionally %r14 and %r15 are not used so they do not need to be saved/restored. There may be a small overhead caused by replacing 'xchg REG, REG' with the needed sequence 'mov MEM, REG; mov REG, MEM; mov REG, REG' once per round. But, counterintuitively, when I tested "ctr-twofish-3way" on a Haswell processor, the new version was actually about 2% faster. (Perhaps 'xchg' is not as well optimized as plain moves.)

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
