...ts using the fields in the va_list structure (and they point back to the previous block, where the arguments actually are). The return address placed on the new block is not the original return address placed on the old stack by the callee, but is the address of a another naked function (called cleanup_new_block) described below. 4. The stack pointer is set to (the address of the new block + 3 * word size). 5. Control is returned to the prolgue, and execution continues normally. We cannot use a usual ret here, so we'll have to use one of the caller-saved registers to communicate the address of the ne...

[LLVMdev] RFC: GSoC Project
Hi All! I will be applying to the LLVM project for this GSoC, and I wanted some preliminary sanity check on my project idea. I intend to implement split (segmented) stacks for LLVM (like we have in Go, and as being implemented for GCC [1]). A lot of what follows is lifted from [1]; I will progressively add more details as I get more familiar with the LLVM codebase. I intend to start with
