AMD has an ABI specification that describes the calling convention to use on x86-64. All OSes follow it, except for Windows which has it's own x86-64 calling convention. Why?
Does anyone know the technical, historical, or political reasons for this difference, or is it purely a matter of NIHsyndrome?
I understand that different OSes may have different needs for higher level things, but that doesn't explain why for example the register parameter passing order on Windows is rcx - rdx …
我正在编写一个加密程序,并且核心(一个宽的乘法例程)是用x86-64汇编编写的,两者都是为了速度而且因为它广泛使用adc那些不容易从C中访问的指令.我不想内联这个函数,因为它很大,并且在内循环中被调用了好几次.
理想情况下,我还想为此函数定义一个自定义调用约定,因为它在内部使用所有寄存器(除外rsp),不破坏其参数,并在寄存器中返回.现在,它适应了C调用约定,但当然这使它变慢(大约10%).
为了避免这种情况,我可以调用它,asm("call %Pn" : ... : my_function... : "cc", all the registers);但有没有办法告诉GCC调用指令与堆栈混淆？否则GCC会将所有这些寄存器放在红色区域中,而顶部的寄存器将被破坏.我可以使用-mno-red-zone编译整个模块,但是我更喜欢告诉GCC,比方说,红色区域的前8个字节将被破坏,以便它不会放任何东西.
