48  * The original i386 ABI said that the stack pointer need be only 4-byte
49  * aligned before a function call (STACK_ALIGN == 4).  The ABI supplement
50  * version 1.0 changed the required alignment to 16-byte for the benefit of
51  * floating point code compiled using sse2.  The compiler assumes this
52  * alignment and maintains it for calls it generates.  If the stack is
53  * initially properly aligned, it will continue to be so aligned.  If it is
54  * not initially so aligned, it will never become so aligned.
55  *
56  * One slightly confusing detail to keep in mind is that the 16-byte
57  * alignment (%esp & 0xf == 0) is true just *before* the call instruction.
58  * The call instruction will then push a return value, decrementing %esp by
59  * 4.  Therefore, if one dumps %esp at the at the very first instruction in
60  * a function, it will end with a 0xc.  The compiler expects this and
61  * compensates for it properly.
62  *
63  * Note: If you change this value, you need to change it in the following
64  * files as well:
65  *
66  *  - lib/libc/i386/threads/machdep.c
67  *  - lib/crt/i386/crti.s
