This is not off-topic really, what you'll need to do though
is tell us what a global stack concept is. I can guess,
but that is not very helpful.

Is X available in standard C is almost always on topic you see.

Virtually all C compilers use a stack to store local variables. Sometimes
function return addresses are stored on the same stack, sometimes on a
separate stack.
However a conforming compiler doesn't have to use a stack, if some other
arrangement is more efficient then that's fine by the ANSI standard.
