From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

A link register, in many CPU architectures such as the PowerPC,ARM and the PA-RISC, is a special purpose register which holds the address to return to when a function call completes. Other architectures (such as SPARC) have a register with the same purpose but another name (in this case, "output register 7").
