Rewrite:

  • save all S registers to stack! restore at the end of every function!
  • make sure that this is correct with debugger
    • set up breaking points before you jump to function
    • take screenshot of registers before
    • take screenshot of resigters after and compare them

Debugging:

  • check for every function
    • arguments are correct - if you are passing pointer check data on the pointer!
    • after the function returns
      • do we have same registers?
      • is our stack pointer the same as before? EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!
