How to understand the assembly result of the tiny c function?

Function in c:

PHPAPI char *php_pcre_replace(char *regex,   int regex_len,
                              char *subject, int subject_len,
                              zval *replace_val, int is_callable_replace,
                              int *result_len, int limit, int *replace_count TSRMLS_DC)
{
    pcre_cache_entry    *pce;               /* Compiled regular expression */

    /* Compile regex or get it from cache. */
    if ((pce = pcre_get_compiled_regex_cache(regex, regex_len TSRMLS_CC)) == NULL) {
        return NULL;
    }

    return php_pcre_replace_impl(pce, subject, subject_len, replace_val, 
        is_callable_replace, result_len, limit, replace_count TSRMLS_CC);
}

Its assembly:

1015dbbb 5e              pop     esi
1015dbbc c3              ret

As we can see that pcre_get_com开发者_如何转开发piled_regex_cache takes 2 parameters,but why 3 parameters are pushed into the stack?

1015db7d 56              push    esi
1015db7e 50              push    eax
1015db7f 51              push    ecx
1015db80 e8cbeaffff      call    php5ts!pcre_get_compiled_regex_cache (1015c650)

I guess the TSRMLS_DC and TSRMLS_CC macros contain some hidden extra parameters. A quick google showed up these macros in PHP programming as global state data. It makes sense, the macro in the function declaration must have a parameter which is at [esp+02ch] on the stack - the tenth parameter - you have nine already, and is passed as the first value on the stack (values are pushed right to left), followed by regex_len and then regex.
