Hi,
My problem is related to PPC crash handler. I had implemented crash handler in arm but when I am trying to implement crash handler in PPC, I am facing some problem. In arm registers we use pc (program counter), frame pointer (fp) and sp(stack pointer). BUT when I trying to implement crash handler in PPC, registers name are different like general purpose register (gpr), floating point register(fpr),srr0, lr.
Which register in PPC, I should use as pc, which register should I use as fp and which register should I use as pc.
Please help me.

Regards,
Shakati
