Yes, on POWER. From our ABI:
On processors with the VMX feature.
v0-v1 Volatile scratch registers
v2-v13 Volatile vector parameters registers
v14-v19 Volatile scratch registers
v20-v31 Non-volatile registers
I'll note that the new VSX register state we recently added with power7
were made volatile, but then we already had these non-volatile altivec
regs to use.
