Chapter 6 - The Mixed Mode Manager

Mode Switching Implementations

This section describes the implementations that the Mixed Mode Manager uses to switch modes between PowerPC and emulated classic 68K and in switching between CFM-68K and classic 68K.

Note that you need to read this section only if you need low-level details of how the Mixed Mode Manager implements stack switch frames during a mode switch (if you are writing a debugger, for example).
