5 // FIXED_FRAME defines the size of the fixed part of a stack frame. A stack
6 // frame looks like this:
7 //
8 // +---------------------+
9 // | local variable area |
10 // +---------------------+
11 // | argument area       |
12 // +---------------------+ <- R1+FIXED_FRAME
13 // | fixed area          |
14 // +---------------------+ <- R1
15 //
16 // So a function that sets up a stack frame at all uses as least FIXED_FRAME
17 // bytes of stack. This mostly affects assembly that calls other functions
18 // with arguments (the arguments should be stored at FIXED_FRAME+0(R1),
19 // FIXED_FRAME+8(R1) etc) and some other low-level places.
20 //
21 // The reason for using a constant is to make supporting PIC easier (although
22 // we only support PIC on ppc64le which has a minimum 32 bytes of stack frame,
23 // and currently always use that much, PIC on ppc64 would need to use 48).
