    sys/sys              signalvar.h upcall.h 
    sys/kern             kern_upcall.c

    lib/libc/sys         upc_register.2 
  Log:
  Tweak the context data a bit and do some code cleanup.  Save %edx as well
  as %eax and %ecx so we can throw the upcall pointer into %edx, which makes
  it possible to create self-contained context assembly code.  This also
  improves performance by giving the context assembly (see
  src/test/sysperf/upcall.S) easier access to the upcall structure.
  
  It's also safer (though not critical) to have the kernel save all the
  call-used registers when setting up for an upcall.
