Expand description

The kind of a stack slot.

Variants

SpillSlot

A spill slot. This is a stack slot created by the register allocator.

ExplicitSlot

An explicit stack slot. This is a chunk of stack memory for use by the stack_load and stack_store instructions.

IncomingArg

An incoming function argument.

If the current function has more arguments than fits in registers, the remaining arguments are passed on the stack by the caller. These incoming arguments are represented as SSA values assigned to incoming stack slots.

OutgoingArg

An outgoing function argument.

When preparing to call a function whose arguments don’t fit in registers, outgoing argument stack slots are used to represent individual arguments in the outgoing call frame. These stack slots are only valid while setting up a call.

StructReturnSlot

Space allocated in the caller’s frame for the callee’s return values that are passed out via return pointer.

If there are more return values than registers available for the callee’s calling convention, or the return value is larger than the available registers’ space, then we allocate stack space in this frame and pass a pointer to the callee, which then writes its return values into this space.

EmergencySlot

An emergency spill slot.

Emergency slots are allocated late when the register’s constraint solver needs extra space to shuffle registers around. They are only used briefly, and can be reused.
