[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] mesa: Ensure stack is realigned on x86.

[Jose Fonseca]

From: José Fonseca <jfonseca at vmware.com>

Nowadays GCC assumes stack pointer is 16-byte aligned even on 32-bits,
but that is an assumption OpenGL drivers (or any dynamic library for
that matter) can affort to make as there are many closed- and open-
source application binaries out there that only assume 4-byte stack
alignment.

This fix uses force_align_arg_pointer GCC attribute, and is only a
stop-gap measure.

The right fix would be to pass -mstackrealign or
-mincoming-stack-boundary=2 to all source fails that use any -msse*
option, as there is no way to guarantee if/when GCC will decide to spill
SSE registers to the stack.
