Hi all!

I'm trying to understand the full-codegen compiler in v8.

Ok, I've taken the full-codegen code for x64 architecture.

As I can see in code, it does following things:
Build x64 frame
Allocate locals
And then allocate context <- this is magic for me

The code's:

// Possibly allocate a local context.

  if (info->scope()->num_heap_slots() > 0) {

    Comment cmnt(masm_, "[ Allocate context");

    bool need_write_barrier = true;

    int slots = info->scope()->num_heap_slots() - Context::MIN_CONTEXT_SLOTS;

    // Argument to NewContext is the function, which is still in rdi.

...


What does the full-codegen does here?
