From 6263778d2cf4afb6e71ccab5bd5f1c3c2e42c65a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bob Wilson Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 05:30:55 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Update the description of MachineFrameInfo's OffsetAdjustment. The value of this adjustment does not change the direction or the signs of the object offsets, and the details of the offset calculations can be target-specific. Also mention that for most targets this value is only used to generate debug info. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@82750 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8 --- include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineFrameInfo.h | 13 ++++++++----- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineFrameInfo.h b/include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineFrameInfo.h index 05ab49961d5..b5479ba09f3 100644 --- a/include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineFrameInfo.h +++ b/include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineFrameInfo.h @@ -133,11 +133,14 @@ class MachineFrameInfo { uint64_t StackSize; /// OffsetAdjustment - The amount that a frame offset needs to be adjusted to - /// have the actual offset from the stack/frame pointer.
