//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
// This describes the calling conventions for AArch64 architecture.
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//


// The AArch64 Procedure Call Standard is unfortunately specified at a slightly
// higher level of abstraction than LLVM's target interface presents. In
// particular, it refers (like other ABIs, in fact) directly to
// structs. However, generic LLVM code takes the liberty of lowering structure
// arguments to the component fields before we see them.
//
// As a result, the obvious direct map from LLVM IR to PCS concepts can't be
// implemented, so the goals of this calling convention are, in decreasing
// priority order:
//     1. Expose *some* way to express the concepts required to implement the
//        generic PCS from a front-end.
//     2. Provide a sane ABI for pure LLVM.
//     3. Follow the generic PCS as closely as is naturally possible.
//
// The suggested front-end implementation of PCS features is:
//     * Integer, float and vector arguments of all sizes which end up in
//       registers are passed and returned via the natural LLVM type.
//     * Structure arguments with size <= 16 bytes are passed and returned in
//       registers as similar integer or composite types. For example:
//       [1 x i64], [2 x i64] or [1 x i128] (if alignment 16 needed).
//     * HFAs in registers follow rules similar to small structs: appropriate
//       composite types.
//     * Structure arguments with size > 16 bytes are passed via a pointer,
//       handled completely by the front-end.
//     * Structure return values > 16 bytes via an sret pointer argument.
//     * Other stack-based arguments (not large structs) are passed using byval
//       pointers. Padding arguments are added beforehand to guarantee a large
//       struct doesn't later use integer registers.
//
// N.b. this means that it is the front-end's responsibility (if it cares about
// PCS compliance) to check whether enough registers are available for an
// argument when deciding how to pass it.

  //
  // Subtlety here: what if alignment is 16 but it is not an integral type? All
