Correction: rsp and rbp are 64-bit registers storing 64-bit stack memory addresses, while popcount eax, edi is taking the 32-bit parameter as input and returning the 32-bit return value. The calling convention is x64 C.
It's a function invocation following x86 C calling convention in assembly. push ebp pushes the base stack pointer of the caller of count() onto the stack, and mov ebp, esp sets the base stack pointer for the callee…
