Are you trying to change the caller or the callee?
For the callee, or1k_compute_frame_size calculates the frame size, which
depends on the frame layout. or1k_expand_prologue emits the RTL for the
prologue. or1k_expand_epilogue emits the RTL for the epilogue. There
are also a few other closely related helper functions. These are all in
gcc/config/or1k/or1k.c.
For the caller, I see that the or1k port already sets
ACCUMULATE_OUTGOING_ARGS, so there should be no stack pointer inc/dec
around a call. Only in the prologue/epilogue.
