For the pseudo assembly code below replace X Y P and Q with

For the (pseudo) assembly code below, replace X, Y, P, and Q with the smallest set of instructions to save/restore values on the stack and update the stack pointer. Assume that procA and procB were written independently by two different programmers who are following the MIPS guidelines for caller-saved and callee-saved registers. In other words, the two programmers agree on the input arguments and return value of procB, but they can\'t see the code written by the other person.

procA:
$s0 = ...
$s1 = ...
$s2 = ...
$t0 = ...
$t1 = ...
X
$a0 = ...
$a1 = ...
jal procB
Y
... = $s0
... = $t1
... = $a0
jr $ra

procB:
P
... = $a0
... = $a1
$s1 = ...
$t0 = ...
Q
jr $ra
