Stack frame allocation a la `alloca`? #19

Closed otrho closed 2 years ago

otrho commented 2 years ago

At the moment there seems to be support for globals only. Are there plans for alloca or does it not quite fit the design for some reason?

You can do stack allocations with stackalloc (see https://github.com/sheredom/yair/blob/master/tests/lit/all/assembler/insts/stackalloc.ya for an example!).
