Stack size of function arguments


size_arguments s returns the number of Outgoing slots used to call a function with signature s.

Definition max_outgoing_1 (accu: Z) (l: loc) : Z :=
  match l with
  | S Outgoing ofs ty => Z.max accu (ofs + typesize ty)
  | _ => accu
  end.

Definition max_outgoing_2 (accu: Z) (rl: rpair loc) : Z :=
  match rl with
  | One l => max_outgoing_1 accu l
  | Twolong l1 l2 => max_outgoing_1 (max_outgoing_1 accu l1) l2
  end.

Definition size_arguments (s: signature) : Z :=
  List.fold_left max_outgoing_2 (loc_arguments s) 0.

The offsets of Outgoing arguments are below size_arguments s.

Remark fold_max_outgoing_above:
  forall l n, fold_left max_outgoing_2 l n >= n.
Proof.
  assert (A: forall n l, max_outgoing_1 n l >= n).

Proof.

  assert (A: forall n l, n <= max_outgoing_1 n l).
  { intros; unfold max_outgoing_1. destruct l as [_ | []]; extlia. }
  assert (B: forall p n,
             In (S Outgoing ofs ty) (regs_of_rpair p) ->

Location of function parameters


A function finds the values of its parameter in the same locations where its caller stored them, except that the stack-allocated arguments, viewed as Outgoing slots by the caller, are accessed via Incoming slots (at the same offsets and types) in the callee.

Definition parameter_of_argument (l: loc) : loc :=
  match l with
  | S Outgoing n ty => S Incoming n ty
  | _ => l
  end.

Definition loc_parameters (s: signature) : list (rpair loc) :=
  List.map (map_rpair parameter_of_argument) (loc_arguments s).

Lemma incoming_slot_in_parameters:
  forall ofs ty sg,
  In (S Incoming ofs ty) (regs_of_rpairs (loc_parameters sg)) ->
  In (S Outgoing ofs ty) (regs_of_rpairs (loc_arguments sg)).
Proof.
  intros.
  replace (regs_of_rpairs (loc_parameters sg)) with (List.map parameter_of_argument (regs_of_rpairs (loc_arguments sg))) in H.
  change (S Incoming ofs ty) with (parameter_of_argument (S Outgoing ofs ty)) in H.
  exploit list_in_map_inv. eexact H. intros [x [A B]]. simpl in A.
  exploit loc_arguments_acceptable_2; eauto. unfold loc_argument_acceptable; intros.
  destruct x; simpl in A; try discriminate.
  destruct sl; try contradiction.
  inv A. auto.
  unfold loc_parameters. generalize (loc_arguments sg). induction l as [ | p l]; simpl; intros.
  auto.
  rewrite map_app. f_equal; auto. destruct p; auto.

Tail calls


A tail-call is possible for a signature if the corresponding arguments are all passed in registers.

A tail-call is possible for a signature if the corresponding arguments are all passed in registers.

Definition tailcall_possible (s: signature) : Prop :=
  forall l, In l (regs_of_rpairs (loc_arguments s)) ->
  match l with R _ => True | S _ _ _ => False end.

Decide whether a tailcall is possible.

Definition tailcall_is_possible (sg: signature) : bool :=
  List.forallb
    (fun l => match l with R _ => true | S _ _ _ => false end)
    (regs_of_rpairs (loc_arguments sg)).

Lemma tailcall_is_possible_correct:
  forall s, tailcall_is_possible s = true -> tailcall_possible s.
Proof.
  unfold tailcall_is_possible; intros. rewrite forallb_forall in H.
  red; intros. apply H in H0. destruct l; [auto|discriminate].

Lemma zero_size_arguments_tailcall_possible:

  unfold loc_argument_acceptable.

  generalize (loc_arguments_bounded _ _ _ H0).
  generalize (typesize_pos ty). lia.
Qed.


Callee-save locations


We classify locations as either Concerning Outgoing stack slots: several ABIs allow a function to modify the stack slots used for passing parameters to this function. The code currently generated by CompCert never does so, but the code generated by other compilers often does so (e.g. GCC for x86-32). Hence, CompCert-generated code must not assume that Outgoing stack slots are preserved across function calls, because they might not be preserved if the called function was compiled by another compiler.

Definition callee_save_loc (l: loc) :=
  match l with
  | R r => is_callee_save r = true
  | S sl ofs ty => sl <> Outgoing
  end.

Definition agree_callee_save (ls1 ls2: Locmap.t) : Prop :=
  forall l, callee_save_loc l -> ls1 l = ls2 l.

Assigning result locations


Useful lemmas to reason about the result of an external call.

Lemma locmap_get_set_loc_result:
  forall sg v rs l,
  match l with R r => is_callee_save r = true | S _ _ _ => True end ->
  Locmap.setpair (loc_result sg) v rs l = rs l.
Proof.
  intros. apply Locmap.gpo.
  assert (X: forall r, is_callee_save r = false -> Loc.diff l (R r)).
  { intros. destruct l; simpl. congruence. auto. }
  generalize (loc_result_caller_save sg). destruct (loc_result sg); simpl; intuition auto.

Lemma locmap_get_set_loc_result_callee_save:
  forall sg v rs l,
  callee_save_loc l ->
  Locmap.setpair (loc_result sg) v rs l = rs l.
Proof.
  intros. apply locmap_get_set_loc_result.
  red in H; destruct l; auto.
