Preserved registers, and call/jmp replacement

[Philippe RIO]

When I make call to a linux/Gtk/... function, are the EBX, EDI and ESI registers saved ?

Very often I use the following code :

PUSH ARG_1
PUSH .Exit
JMP  GTK_SomeFunc

in replacement of

PUSH ARG_1
CALL GTK_SomeFunc
JMP .Exit

or

INVOKE GTK_SomeFunc,ARG_1
JMP .exit

Is it right on Linux ? Because a call before a jmp always must be removed !

Thanks

Wrong forum.

Why ? ;-)

Fine in DOS. Sorry I don't have Linux.

Except the return address is peeked and used for something of course.
