How to use Assembly Code? to use Register r5

I'm trying Assembly code in mbed.

Board is Nucleo F401RE.

It seems break program when use Register r5,r6....

Only r0,r1,r2,r3,r4 well.

I see

http://mbed.org/cookbook/Assembly-Language

But not find it.

Which document can I read to understand this.

My assembly Code

__asm   void dcf(S32 *param ,S16 *signal){
    LDR    r3,[r0 , #0]
    LDR    r4,[r1 , #0]
    SMULWB   r2,r3,r4
    LDR    r5,[r0 , #4]; This Break Program
    LDR    r6,[r1 , #4]
    SMLAWB  r2,r5,r6,r2
    LDR    r3,[r0 , #8]
    LDR    r4,[r1 , #8]
    SMLAWB   r2,r3,r4,r2
    LDR    r5,[r0 , #12]
    LDR    r6,[r1 , #12]
    SMLAWB  r2,r5,r6,r2
    LDR    r3,[r0 , #16]
    LDR    r4,[r1 , #16]
    SMLAWB  r2,r3,r4,r2
    
    MOV     r0,r1; MOVS?
    LDR     r4,[r1, #12]; dcf_y1
    LDR     r3,[r0, #4]; dcf_x1
    STR     r4,[r1, #16]; dcf_y2 = dcf_y1
    STR     r3,[r0, #8]; dcf_x2 = dcf_x1
    STR     r5,[r1, #0]; sample
    STR     r2,[r0, #12]; dcf_y1 = result
    STR     r5,[r1 ,#4]; dcf_x1 = sample

    BX      LR
    ENDP
            
    ALIGN
    END
}

Hi,

According to the AAPCS (ARM Archtecture Procedure Call Standard), a subroutine must preserve (into stack) the contents of the registers r4-r8, r10, r11 and SP before they are used. Please see more detail in section 5.1.1 Core registers of AAPCS.

Regards, Toyo

I added PUSH POP {r4-r7}. It works well now.

Thanks.
