[X86] Create extra prolog/epilog for stack realignment
The base pointer register is reserved by compiler when there is dynamic size alloca and stack realign in a function. However the base pointer register is not defined in X86 ABI, so user can use this register in inline assembly. The inline assembly would clobber base pointer register without being awared by user. This patch is to create extra prolog to save the stack pointer to a scratch register and use this register to reference argument from stack. For some calling convention (e.g. regcall), there may be few scratch register. Below is the example code for such case. ``` extern int bar(void *p); long long foo(size_t size, char c, int id) { __attribute__((__aligned__(64))) int a; char *p = (char *)alloca(size); asm volatile ("nop"::"S"(405):); asm volatile ("movl %0, %1"::"r"(id), "m"(a):); p[2] = 8; memset(p, c, size); return bar(p); } ``` And below prolog/epilog will be emit for this case. ``` leal 4(%esp), %ebx .cfi_def_cfa %ebx, 0 andl $-128, %esp pushl -4(%ebx) ... leal 4(%ebx), %esp .cfi_def_cfa %esp, 4 ``` Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D145650
