The PowerPC architecture includes a number of special registers which are
critical to the programming model:
+*Special-Purpose Register General 0 (SPRG0)*
+ On SMP configurations, this register contains the address of the per-CPU
+ control of the processor.
+
+*Special-Purpose Register General 1 (SPRG1)*
+ This register contains the interrupt stack pointer for the outer-most
+ interrupt service routine.
+
+*Special-Purpose Register General 2 (SPRG2)*
+ This register contains the address of interrupt stack area begin.
+
*Machine State Register*
The MSR contains the processor mode, power management mode, endian mode,
exception information, privilege level, floating point available and
