Bug ID: 203942
Summary: Remove remnants of support code for an upwards growing
stack.
Product: WebKit
Version: WebKit Nightly Build
Hardware: Unspecified
OS: Unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P2
Component: JavaScriptCore
Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
Reporter: mark.lam at apple.com
We haven't supported an upwards growing stack in years, and a lot of code has since been written specifically with only a downwards growing stack in mind (e.g. the LLInt, the JITs). Also, all our currently supported platforms use a downward growing stack.
We should remove the remnants of support code for an upwards growing stack. The presence of that code is deceptive in that it conveys support for an upwards growing stack where this hasn't been the case in years.
