I think the first change may not be advisable. There are multiple such address range walkers and the interface probably doesn't constrain the order they go on.<br>So, instead, another change would be to touch every stack page at thread start, so that later walks going "out of order" won't trigger stack overflow exceptions.<br>This has the side benefit of not needing the backend to learn about chkstk.<br> <br> <br>That is, on Win32, stack pages must be touched in order from highest to lowest.<br>That is, the first time a stack page is touched, it should be only one lower than the lowest stack page previously touched.<br>Once some stack pages have been touched, they can later be touched in any order.<br>Functions with more than a page of locals are supposed to touch all of their frame's pages.<br>Otherwise function call's pushing a return address suffices.<br>The Modula-3 backend doesn't do this.<br>I've never seen this clearly documented, but it is clearly the intent of the C compiler's generated code.<br> The C compiler generates a call to chkstk for functions with more than a page of locals, and chkstk touches a byte on each page.<br> And chkstk and alloca are the same function.<br> If this wasn't the case, the compiler could just inline subtraction.<br> <br> <br>And any GC code that walks the stack could possible violate this, depending on what it uses for stack bounds.<br>Currently it uses "accurate" bounds on Win32, and so is ok.<br> <br> <br> - Jay<br> <br><hr id="ecxstopSpelling">From:<span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:jay.krell@cornell.edu">jay.krell@cornell.edu</a><br>To:<span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:rcolebur@scires.com">rcolebur@scires.com</a>;<span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:m3devel@elegosoft.com">m3devel@elegosoft.com</a><br>Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2011 06:53:06 +0000<br>Subject: Re: [M3devel] results of threadtest program on Windows7<br><br>I'm going to make one or two changes because of this.<br> <br> - Where we process memory in a range, I'm going to go in stack growth order instead from lowest address to highest.
