It seems like it wouldn't be hard to support a vendor-specific function parameters attribute like __attribute__((ptr_in_section(".data",".rodata"))__ or __attribute__((ptr_not_in_section(".stack"))


the stack (or stacks, for multithreaded processes) is not a "section" as far as executable file formats are concerned. It is amazingly hard at compile time to "know" that a specific pointer is on any stack.
