"``cxx_fast_tlscc``" - The `CXX_FAST_TLS` calling convention for access functions
|
||||
Clang generates an access function to access C++-style TLS. The access
|
||||
function generally has an entry block, an exit block and an initialization
|
||||
block that is run at the first time. The entry and exit blocks can access
|
||||
a few TLS IR variables, each access will be lowered to a platform-specific
|
||||
sequence.
|
||||
|
||||
This calling convention aims to minimize overhead in the caller by
|
||||
preserving as many registers as possible. This calling convention behaves
|
||||
identical to the `C` calling convention on how arguments and return values
|
||||
are passed, but it uses a different set of caller/callee-saved registers.
|
||||
Given that C-style TLS on Darwin has its own special CSRs, we can't use the
|
||||
existing `PreserveMost`.
|
||||
preserving as many registers as possible (all the registers that are
|

perserved on the fast path, composed of the entry and exit blocks).

- On X86-64 the callee preserves all general purpose registers, except for
|

RDI and RAX.
