I want to know how objective C runtime handle arguments when I call a objective C method like

[NSString stringWithFomat:@"%@, %@", @"Hello", @"World"]

There are three arguments for this objective C call, how does it work compared to typical way on a ARM system. I have known register r0, r1, r2, r3 will hold first 4 arguments, how about there are additional arguments? How does it put them on a stack and pop them later?
