A function should always ensure that the stack pointer is the same at the entry and exit of the function. This message tells you that this didn't happen: the stack pointer was different at the function return than when the function was first called.
Examples
ARMv7
.global _start
_start:
mov sp, #0x1000 // Initialize SP to something sane
bl MyFunction
nop
nop
# ...
MyFunction:
push {r4} // Change SP
bx lr // SP is different at return
Nios II
.global _start
_start:
movi sp, 0x1000 # Initialize SP
call Function
nop
nop
Function:
subi sp, sp, 4 # Modify SP
ret # SP is different at return
