If the argument is caller-copied (@pxref{Register Arguments, TARGET_CALLEE_COPIES}), the stack slot will be mentioned in @code{CLOBBER} and @code{USE} entries; if it's callee-copied, only a @code{USE} will appear, and the -@code{MEM} may point to addresses that are not stack slots. These -@code{MEM}s are used only in libcalls, because, unlike regular function -calls, @code{CONST_CALL}s (which libcalls generally are, @pxref{Flags, -CONST_CALL_P}) aren't assumed to read and write all memory, so flow -would consider the stores dead and remove them. Note that, since a -libcall must never return values in memory (@pxref{Aggregate Return, -RETURN_IN_MEMORY}), there will never be a @code{CLOBBER} for a memory -address holding a return value. +@code{MEM} may point to addresses that are not stack slots. @code{CLOBBER}ed registers in this list augment registers specified in @code{CALL_USED_REGISTERS} (@pxref{Register Basics}). |
