[Qemu-devel] alpha - syscalls can return two values

Hello

On the Alpha architecture, system calls can return two values, one in register $0 and one in register $1. This is unusual, so there is no mechanism I can see in linux-user/syscall.c for handling this properly.

What would be the best way to handle this?

This is needed to implement the getxuid and getxgid syscalls. Without these, the spec2k perlbmk fails to run.
