AtI[0] = BUILD_LIS(12, Addr >> 16); // lis r12, hi16(address) AtI[1] = BUILD_ORI(12, 12, Addr); // ori r12, r12, low16(address) AtI[2] = BUILD_MTCTR(12); // mtctr r12 AtI[3] = BUILD_BCTR(isCall); // bctr/bctrl but I understand now how startFunctionStub() is given StubSize and on PowerPC it's 16 so there's no problem.
