Subject: [v3] avoid alignment of static variables affecting stack's
Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2015 12:38:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5669805902000078000BE192@prv-mh.provo.novell.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2442 bytes --]

Function (or more narrow) scope static variables (as well as others not
placed on the stack) should also not have any effect on the stack
alignment. I noticed the issue first with Linux'es dynamic_pr_debug()
construct using an 8-byte aligned sub-file-scope local variable.

According to my checking bad behavior started with 4.6.x (4.5.3 was
still okay), but generated code got quite a bit worse as of 4.9.0.

[v3: Re-base to current trunk.]
[v2: Drop inclusion of hard register variables, as requested by
     Jakub and Richard.]
