Re: Force compiler to pass arguments by Stack!

[Michael Tesch <tesch at cs dot wisc dot edu>]

is it syscalls or library calls that are causing this problem?

if it's library calls:
first, you should check to see if the target you are
compiling for has a flag that does this.  if it doesn't,
and you're feeling hard-core, you can try to edit the target
description macros in gcc.  this will make the generated
code incompatible with whatever the real ABI (the one that
gcc is configured for) specifies.  and, it may not 
actually work at all, but if you're desperate...

1. find the target description macro .h file in (for example:)
   gcc-2.95.2/gcc/config/<your arch>/<your arch>.h
2. find the line that defines FUNCTION_ARG
3. make it say:  #define FUNCTION_ARG(a,b,c,d) 0
4. recompile gcc & pray

backup plan:  figure out why it doesn't work ;-)

OR, maybe if you're only having this problem when syscalls
return args, find the files that define how a syscall is made,
and fix those instead.
(that depends on your libraries.)

i suspect that neither of these approaches is going to be as 
easy as they sound.
