I'm wondering whether thunk creation can be a good target-independent
generalization? I guess
we can emit the function declaration without direct writes to asm_out_file? And
the emission
of function body can be potentially a target hook?
What about emitting body of the function with RTL instructions instead of
direct assembly write?
My knowledge of RTL is quite small, but maybe it can bring some generalization
and reusability
for other targets?
Thank you,
Martin
