# Problem: create a function which pushes n zeros on the stack.
# This is not a regular function, so it won't be idiomatic.
# Registers must be properly restored.
# Registers can be spilled, but that modifies the stack and needs to be
# cleaned up.
# This file is kinda like a research notebook, to interactively arrive at the
# solution. Nobody should have to do this without a computer. To run it:
# $ ./translate_subx_debug init.linux tools/stack_array.subx && bootstrap --debug --trace --dump run a.elf
# There are multiple versions. You'll need to uncomment exactly one.
# The final version has its own Entry, but the others share this one.

# Ok, we're there. Now start using zero-out rather than spot-cleaning.
## 7: we need to zero out the return address, but we can't do it inside the function.
## So we'll change the signature slightly.
## Before: clear N bytes and then push N as the array length.
## After: clear N bytes, set *esp to N.
## The helper adds and clears N bytes *before* esp. esp can't be cleared since
## it contains the return address.
