+/* The following functions are provided for software stack checking.
+ If hardware stack-checking is being used then the code can be
+ compiled without the PCS entry checks, and simply rely on VM
+ management to extend the stack for a thread.
+
+ The stack extension event occurs when the PCS function entry code
+ would result in a stack-pointer beneath the stack-limit register
+ value. The system relies on the following map:
+
+ +-----------------------------------+ <-- end of stack block
+ | ... |
+ | ... |
+ | active stack |
+ | ... | <-- sp (stack-pointer) somewhere in here
+ | ... |
+ +-----------------------------------+ <-- sl (stack-limit)
+ | stack-extension handler workspace |
+ +-----------------------------------+ <-- base of stack block
+
+ The "stack-extension handler workspace" is an amount of memory in
+ which the stack overflow support code must execute. It must be
+ large enough to deal with the worst case path through the extension
+ code. At the moment the compiler expects this to be AT LEAST
+ 256bytes. It uses this fact to code functions with small local
+ data usage within the overflow space.
+
+ In a true target environment We may need to increase the space
+ between sl and the true limit to allow for the stack extension
+ code, SWI handlers and for undefined instruction handlers of the
+ target environment. */

+ @ The "current sl" is somewhere between "original sp" and "current sp"
+ @ but above "true sl". The "current sl" should be at least 256bytes
+ @ above the "true sl". The 256byte stack guard should be large enough
+ @ to deal with the worst case function entry stacking (160bytes) plus
+ @ the stack overflow handler stacking requirements, plus the stack
+ @ required for the memory allocation routines.
+ @
+ @ Normal PCS entry (before stack overflow check) can stack 16
+ @ standard registers (64bytes) and 8 floating point registers
+ @ (96bytes). This gives a minimum stack guard of 160bytes (excluding
+ @ the stack required for the code). (Actually only a maximum of
+ @ 14standard registers are ever stacked on entry to a function).
+ @
+ @ NOTE: Structure returns are performed by the caller allocating a
+ @ dummy space on the stack and passing in a "phantom" arg1 into
+ @ the function. This means that we do not need to worry about
+ @ preserving the stack under "sp" even on function return.
+ @
+ @ Code should never poke values beneath sp. The sp register
+ @ should always be "dropped" first to cover the data. This
+ @ protects the data against any events that may try and use
+ @ the stack.
+

+ @ Add stack extension code here. If desired a new stack chunk
+ @ can be allocated, and the register state updated suitably.
