Bug ID: 107606
Summary: rs6000: Option not to use parameter save area in
variadic function implementations
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: target
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: fw at gcc dot gnu.org
CC: bergner at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Target: powerpc64le-*-linux-gnu
Programmers tend to call functions like open, openat and prctl through
non-variadic prototypes. As a result, the caller does not set up the parameter
save area. Use of the parameter save area in the glibc implementation then
leads to difficult-to-diagnose (non-localized) memory corruption.
For glibc, we could use either a command-line option or a function attribute.
