DescriptionPPC: [runtime] Unify and simplify how frames are marked
Port 9dcd0857d64a117801bf91cb6caf7d6578809cb1
Original commit message:
Before this CL, various code stubs used different techniques
for marking their frames to enable stack-crawling and other
access to data in the frame. All of them were based on a abuse
of the "standard" frame representation, e.g. storing the a
context pointer immediately below the frame's fp, and a
function pointer after that. Although functional, this approach
tends to make stubs and builtins do an awkward, unnecessary
dance to appear like standard frames, even if they have
nothing to do with JavaScript execution.
This CL attempts to improve this by:
* Ensuring that there are only two fundamentally different
types of frames, a "standard" frame and a "typed" frame.
Standard frames, as before, contain both a context and
function pointer. Typed frames contain only a minimum
of a smi marker in the position immediately below the fp
where the context is in standard frames.
* Only interpreted, full codegen, and optimized Crankshaft and
TurboFan JavaScript frames use the "standard" format. All
other frames use the type frame format with an explicit
marker.
* Typed frames can contain one or more values below the
type marker. There is new magic macro machinery in
frames.h that simplifies defining the offsets of these fields
in typed frames.
* A new flag in the CallDescriptor enables specifying whether
a frame is a standard frame or a typed frame. Secondary
register location spilling is now only enabled for standard
frames.
* A zillion places in the code have been updated to deal with
the fact that most code stubs and internal frames use the
typed frame format. This includes changes in the
deoptimizer, debugger, and liveedit.
* StandardFrameConstants::kMarkerOffset is deprecated,
(CommonFrameConstants::kContextOrFrameTypeOffset
and StandardFrameConstants::kFrameOffset are now used
in its stead).
