<h5 class="subsubsection">9.33.1.2 Register Names</h5>
<p><a name="index-OpenRISC-registers-1838"></a><a name="index-register-names_002c-OpenRISC-1839"></a>
The OpenRISC register file contains 32 general pupose registers.
<ul>
<li>The 32 general purpose registers are referred to as &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">r</span><var>n</var></samp>&rsquo;.
<li>The stack pointer register &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">r1</span></samp>&rsquo; can be referenced using the alias
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">sp</span></samp>&rsquo;.
<li>The frame pointer register &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">r2</span></samp>&rsquo; can be referenced using the alias
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">fp</span></samp>&rsquo;.
<li>The link register &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">r9</span></samp>&rsquo; can be referenced using the alias &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">lr</span></samp>&rsquo;.
</ul>
<p>Floating point operations use the same general purpose registers. The
instructions <code>lf.itof.s</code> (single precision) and <code>lf.itof.d</code> (double
precision) can be used to convert integer values to floating point.
Likewise, instructions <code>lf.ftoi.s</code> (single precision) and
<code>lf.ftoi.d</code> (double precision) can be used to convert floating point to
integer.
<p>OpenRISC also contains privileged special purpose registers (SPRs). The
SPRs are accessed using the <code>l.mfspr</code> and <code>l.mtspr</code> instructions.
