rnk added a comment. Some copy editing comments, but I agree with the semantics: From the IR perspective, it is better to think of argument stack memory as belonging to the callee. A byval argument has more in common with a local static alloca than a passed in pointer.
================ Comment at: llvm/docs/LangRef.rst:1046 structs and arrays by value, but is also valid on pointers to - scalars. The copy is considered to belong to the caller not the - callee (for example, ``readonly`` functions should not write to - ``byval`` parameters). This is not a valid attribute for return - values. + scalars The copy is conceptually made on the call edge. This means that + the pointer argument at the call site refers to the original memmory and ---------------- Missing period?
