ABSTRACT:
A method for calling and returning from a computer subroutine is provided. The method allows a subroutine executing on a stack-oriented computer with segmented addressing, such as the Intel 80386, to be invoked by both an inter-segment call and an intra-segment call instruction. The method allows multiple subroutines in one code segment to share an inter-segment return instruction. The method further provides for the locating of that instruction so that the pushing of its offset onto the stack can be accomplished efficiently.
