llvm dev - Jun 2007 - [LLVMdev] Calling Convention & Stack Frame

Hello,

 

I want to find information/documentation on how reorganize stack frame (add
other information, etc.) & how add new calling convention into ARM backend?

 

I think it is needed to modify lowering of CALL, RET & FORMAL_ARGUMENT
instruction, and also to modify emitPrologue & emitEpilogue functions.

 

What are the others things to modify in order to realize my experimentation? Is
it the best way to do it?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Mikaël.

You can specify different calling conventions on the specific arch file
<ARCH>CallingConv.td (see X86/PowerPC/Mips for examples).
They must be handled on the lowering of CALL, RET and FORMAL_ARGUMENTS!
Take a look at the following functions called in <ARCH>ISelLowering.cpp  :
CCInfo.AnalyzeCallOperands
CCInfo.AnalyzeCallResult
CCInfo.AnalyzeFormalArguments
CCInfo.AnalyzeReturn

Thanks in advance.
