Yes — it pops what the prolog pushed, and then does a jr.
The epilog must also ensure that the correct return value is in $v0.
That will be done later.
Here is the code so far:
## maxExp -- compute the maximum of three expressions
##
## Input:
## $a0 -- a signed integer, x
## $a1 -- a signed integer, y
##
## Returns:
## $v0 -- the maximum of x*x, x*y, or 5*y
##
## Registers:
## $s0 -- x*x
## $s1 -- x*y
## $s2 -- 5*y
.text
.globl maxExp
maxExp:
# prolog
sub $sp,$sp,4 # push the return address
sw $ra,($sp)
sub $sp,$sp,4 # push $s0
sw $s0,($sp)
sub $sp,$sp,4 # push $s1
sw $s1,($sp)
sub $sp,$sp,4 # push $s2
sw $s2,($sp)
# body
# subroutine maxInt call
# subroutine maxInt return
# subroutine maxInt call
# subroutine maxInt return
# epilog
lw $s2,($sp) # pop $s2
add $sp,$sp,4
lw $s1,($sp) # pop $s1
add $sp,$sp,4
lw $s0,($sp) # pop $s0
add $sp,$sp,4
lw $ra,($sp) # pop return address
add $sp,$sp,4
jr $ra # return to caller
nop
Have the pops been done in the correct order?
