Hello,
About a year ago we discussed various possibilities regarding
an issue with the aarch64 selection of r18 as the static chain,
problematic in environments where the OS uses r18 for "private"
reasons. VxWorks uses this permission to use r18 as a pointer to
the current TCB, and Windows does something similar I think.
I first proposed a change allowing target ports to state that
r18 should be considered "fixed" and switching the static chain
to r11 in this case. I had picked r11 as the next after r9/r10
already used for stack checking,
After a few exchanges, we agreed that we should rather use r9
as the alternate static chain and remap the temporary registers
used for stack-checking to r10/r11.
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2018-12/msg01592.html
We were also thinking that we should be able to change the
static chain register unconditionally.
Then during the last GNU cauldron, we realized that libffi
currently relies on the knowledge of which register is used for
the static chain, for the support of Go closures.
Unconditionally changing r18 to something else would break that
support, most notably on Linux. Adjusting libffi is possible but
raises a clear compatibility issue.
The attached patch is a renewed proposal to let target OS
ports state their private use of r18, switching the static
chain to r9 and declaring r18 "fixed" in that case.
In addition to adjusting PROBE_STACK reg values to r10/r11,
the patch also moves the corresponding definitions together
with the other special register number definitions, so we have
a centralized view of the numbering choices.
This solves the immediate issue for VxWorks (which I'd like
to contribute) and seems like an interesting thing to have
in any case, regardless of whether or not we want to more
generally change the static chain someday.
With this change, we have good build and testing results
on both aarch64-elf and aarch64-vxworks7 for a gcc-9 based
compiler, where only vxworks states TARGET_OS_USES_R18.
I have also verified that I would build a native aarch64-linux
mainline compiler with the change and that it still picks r18 as
the static chain.
Is this variant ok to commit ?
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
Olivier

My first thought is that if we need a permanent reservation it would be
better to put this at the top of the list. r16 and r17 have defined ABI
uses (for the inter-procedural registers), so that means the next
highest register is r15. I'm keen that we avoid, if possible,
fracturing the space of call clobbered registers by 'just picking
another one' - if we're not careful we end up with a set of blocked
holes that just makes life hard for everyone.
Which ever register we eventually settle on, I think this needs to get
recorded in the ABI docs. The GO example shows that this is more ABI
than was previously anticipated.
+/* The pair of scratch registers used for stack probing during
prologue. */
+#define PROBE_STACK_FIRST_REG R10_REGNUM
+#define PROBE_STACK_SECOND_REG R11_REGNUM
+
These should be moved to the define_constant in aarch64.md that defines
all the register numbers (add them to near the end of the list where the
other aliases are defined.

Indeed. It might be just "normal" for something
essentially allowing access to local things through
part of of a Foreign Function Interface.

Here's an updated version of the patch with your suggestion
incorporated, bootstrapped and regression checked for languages=all
on a native aarch64-linux host.
I replaced the _REG suffix by _REGNUM to match all the other
definitions in aarch64.md, just for consistency.

Olivier

Hello,
The attached patch is a standalone part of a slightly more
general change last discussed here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2019-11/msg02626.html
Which I re-tested successfully on aarch64-linux (bootstrap
and regression test with --enable-languages=all + local tests
with Ada stack-checking on a gcc-9 based toolchain in-house).
The change moves the definitions of PROBE_STACK_FIRST_REG
and PROBE_STACK_SECOND_REG to a more appropriate place for such
items (here, in aarch64.md as suggested by Richard), and adjust
their value from r9/r10 to r10/r11 to free r9 for a possibly
more general purpose (e.g. as a static chain at least on targets
which have a private use of r18, such as Windows or Vxworks).
Is this ok to commit ?
Thanks in advance!
With Kind Regards,
Olivier

Hello,
Gentle ping for
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2019-12/msg01398.html
I realize and certainly understand that this is
of lower importance than other matters currently being discussed
on the lists.
It's just that the end of stage 3 is imminent and I thought
we'd better at least agree on a way forward before it closes.
This particular change is an extraction of an hopefully
non controversial part of a more general change discussed
earlier. No ABI concern here.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Olivier
