Within my x86 driver I update EBP. using inline assembley, push and pop EBP
before my module exits..
I am now porting that logic to AMD64 architecture, due to restrictions of
not able to use inline assembley within my amd64 driver is there a way to
update framepointer value(EBP) before I exit my module. I found an intrinsic
function to retrieve addressofreturnaddress and I can obtain the value which
I want in EBP from this API . Question is how to use this value to update
the EBP register contents? Is there any intrinsic counterpart which I can use
or any other method..Hope I am clear on my concern..

Thanks in advance..

Why do you do this?

The x64 compiler doesn't use RBP as a frame pointer, so I'm confused as to
why this is necessary.

Throw away the inline assembly and rewrite the code in C.

Helps like a charm :-)

Understanding and working with some legacy code, so was just following the
logic of saving and restoring EBP upon module load and exit.. Ignoring the
fact of x64 frame pointer store location under x86 is it possible to replace
that push EBP and Pop EBP with some intrinsics..

Considering am newbie to x64 development, what does x64 compiler use as
frame pointer then. or if you please point me to good reads on this topics
would be appreciated..

Thanks much..

Start here:

The info is a bit spread out so you have to click through all of the links
and read, but it's all there.
