X86: Emit an ABI compliant prologue and epilogue for Win64
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

Win64 has specific contraints on what valid prologues and epilogues look
like. This constraint is born from the flexibility and descriptiveness
of Win64's unwind opcodes.

Prologues previously emitted by LLVM could not be represented by the
unwind opcodes, preventing operations powered by stack unwinding to
successfully work.

All my comments are comment related. :) Let me patch this and test it.

This comment is not associated with the relevant code anymore. I'd kill it.

s/pushed/spilled/, since we don't push XMM regs.

We need to describe what Offset is, since it took so much research to find. My attempt:
Offset will hold the offset from the stack pointer at function entry to the object. We need to factor in additional offsets applied during the prologue to the frame, base, and stack pointer depending on which is used.

My attempt at describing this variable:
FPDelta is the offset from the "traditional" FP location of the old base pointer followed by return address and the location required by the restricted Win64 prologue. Add FPDelta to all offsets below that go through the frame pointer.
