I would say that this instruction:


ldmea   fp, {r3, fp, sp, lr}


is very bad.




Restoring fp from fp?


who knows what the value of fp would be.




Also, the fact that after that you only have:


ldmfd   sp!, {ip} means that your stack pointer doesn't get restored to what it 
was at function entry.


So after enough interrupts, your stack will be entirely gone.




Oh, I have just cross-compiled gcc-3.3.1, and I have seen the same problem, even 
with the -Os and -O2 optimizations.




If I am misinterpreting this assmbly please let me know, but it just looks bad 
to me.
