+\subsection{SPARC64 Calling Convention}
+
+\paragraph{Overview}
+
+The SPARC family of processors is based on the SPARC instruction set architecture, which comes in basically tree revisions,
+V7, V8 and V9. The former two are 32-bit (see previous chapter) whereas the latter refers to the 64-bit SPARC architecture. SPARC is big endian.
+
+\paragraph{\product{dyncall} support}
+
+\product{dyncall} fully supports the SPARC 64-bit instruction set (V9), \product{dyncallback} support is missing, though.
+
+\subsubsection{SPARC (64-bit) Calling Convention}
