------- Comment #31 from mmitchel at gcc dot gnu dot org 2010-02-17 16:49 ------- I still have no idea what this PR is about. Someone needs to make a clear statement of what they believe the ABI to be. There are some simple questions:
* Can we expect that the stack is 16-byte aligned, or not? * If we cannot (because of legacy requirements), then is there any reason to try to align the stack automatically at entry to every function, or at every call site? I can see that this might be useful as an option, but it does not seem like a sensible default to me. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41156
