; This tests correct handling of empty aggregate parameters and return values.
; An empty parameter passed by value does not consume a protocol register or
; a parameter save area doubleword.  An empty parameter passed by reference
; is treated as any other pointer parameter.  An empty aggregate return value
; is treated as any other aggregate return value, passed via address as a
; hidden parameter in GPR3.  In this example, GPR3 contains the return value
; address, GPR4 contains the address of e2, and e1 and e3 are not passed or
; received.
