+ * To maintain compatibility with current implementations the sigcontext is
+ * extended by appending a pointer (v_regs) to a quadword type (elf_vrreg_t)
+ * followed by an unstructured (vmx_reserve) field of 69 doublewords. This
+ * allows the array of vector registers to be quadword aligned independent of
+ * the alignment of the containing sigcontext or ucontext. It is the
+ * responsibility of the code setting the sigcontext to set this pointer to
+ * either NULL (if this processor does not support the VMX feature) or the
+ * address of the first quadword within the allocated (vmx_reserve) area.
+ *
+ * The pointer (v_regs) of vector type (elf_vrreg_t) is type compatible with
+ * an array of 34 quadword entries (elf_vrregset_t). The entries with
+ * indexes 0-31 contain the corresponding vector registers. The entry with
+ * index 32 contains the vscr as the last word (offset 12) within the
+ * quadword. This allows the vscr to be stored as either a quadword (since
+ * it must be copied via a vector register to/from storage) or as a word.
+ * The entry with index 33 contains the vrsave as the first word (offset 0)
+ * within the quadword.
