[webkit-dev] want to port JIT to MIPS - cti_op_mod(STUB_ARGS) seg fault

[x yz]

I use MIPS32EL, VA_LIST call, MIPS pushes function argument from left to right. I wrote a simple VA_LIST test it works on my box.

BEGIN_STUB_FUNCTION() cause seg fault due to MIPS uses gp reg to read sth.
I treied to rewrite the code like that:
JSObject* JITStubs::cti_op_new_func_exp(STUB_ARGS)
{
    va_list vl_args; 
    va_start(vl_args, args);
    StackHack stackHack(&STUB_RETURN_ADDRESS_SLOT);
    JSValuePtr dividendValue = va_arg(vl_args, JSC::JSCell* );
    JSValuePtr divisorValue = va_arg(vl_args, JSC::JSCell* );
...
}

Still fail in stackHack(), if I comment out stackHack() then fails at va_arg.

gp is a global register for common/public variables, the same usage before I call cti_op_mod() works fine.

I also tried not use VA_LIST but REGISTER calling convention, still fail:

another question is that there is no matched va_end() and it is a bug.
thanks a lot for help,
