We currently do magic stack/resumepoint management for JSOP_FUNCALL / JSOP_FUNAPPLY and cause headaches and bugs. I'm proposing we try and make it instead as similar to inlining as we can. This would probably including using IonBuilder::buildInline and generating proper inline stack frames. Ideally we'd still end up with optimal code but simplify Ion in the process. :nbp has some ideas here as well.
The idea that I have, is that, even if this cost us 2 empty MBasicBlocks with resume points, we should make a proper entry and exit block, with the proper resume points which are shuffling the arguments around. - When iterating over the JitInlinedFrames, we would no longer have to do some crazy logic to recover the arguments order, or the JSFunction based on which kind of JSOP the pc corresponds to. - When doing a bailout, we could skip these special frames reconstructions.
