David Given efab08178b Fix a bunch of issues with pushing and popping mismatched sizes, which the B

testing.
2017-01-07 18:38:43 +01:00
David Given 6b4f8d72b8 ine and ste are now declared to modify memory (preventing cached values being
propagated across the modification).
2017-01-07 13:25:09 +01:00
David Given 7710c76d56 Introduce sequence points before store instructions to prevent loads from the
same address being delayed until after the store (at which point they'll return
the wrong value).
2017-01-07 13:17:39 +01:00
David Given 0da248dced Use a better NOT; and after remembering that PowerPC bit numbers are all
backwards in the documentation, rewrote IFEQ/IFLT/IFLE to actually work.
Probably. Thanks to the B test suite for spotting this.
2017-01-07 01:03:15 +01:00

2017-01-04 13:28:40 +00:00
David Given aeb9d4952d Added an abmodules tool which detects B modules and generates an initialiser
function for them (in C, unfortunately).
2017-01-03 18:54:13 +00:00

David Given 049aff9f33 Remove the negative-constant code from the compiler; I think it's going to
break a=-1 (with no spaces). Backed out changeset dead3363ac7d.
2017-01-01 17:44:55 +00:00
David Given be909fe045 Add tests for more operators. 2017-01-01 17:44:03 +00:00

David Given 1beedca590 Add support for B tests; add a test for the B operators (finding several
compiler bugs in the process).
2016-12-31 17:38:52 +00:00

David Given fa02a855e8 Fix issue where !x was actually calculating !!x. 2016-12-31 00:14:04 +00:00
David Given 462529a7d2 Trying to install openbios-ppc causes Travis to error out now (not sure why). 2016-12-29 17:30:47 +00:00
David Given e460adc923 Add a B version of the hilo program. 2016-12-29 17:20:51 +00:00
David Given 4e68af9781 Add a declaration for the -Bxyz module name flag, used by the B compiler.
Rename some of the Basic flags to avoid confusion.
2016-12-29 17:12:40 +00:00
David Given 0e10329876 Fix an issue throughout where B couldn't be built by ackprogram due to symbol
laziness.
2016-12-29 17:11:53 +00:00
David Given a43258fe9d Build the B compiler and standard library (also the Basic one, which was
missing).
2016-12-29 17:11:07 +00:00
David Given ebd424e7f1 First draft of the B module code; a module name can now be specified as a
compiler flag, which is used to set the name of the patch table. The compiler
now understands C preprocessor line directives. Extend the standard library
somewhat.
2016-12-29 17:10:21 +00:00
David Given e3f8fb84dc Change the i80 assembler to be three-pass, which allows forward references;
required for assembling B.
2016-12-29 17:08:53 +00:00

David Given decf0f5e9c Merge pull request #29 from kernigh/pr-elf-symbol
ELF symbol table from aelflod
2016-12-14 22:30:44 +01:00
George Koehler 7e39a821f4 Update aelflod.1 to describe options, mention symbol table. 2016-12-13 17:22:45 -05:00
George Koehler 5cf2a68438 Teach aelflod to write the ELF symbol table.
Convert each ack.out symbol to ELF, preserving its name and value, and
some but not all other symbol info.  The ELF symbol table comes with
ELF section headers.  If the input file has no symbols (ack -Rled-s),
then the output file has no ELF section headers.

Append the symbol table and section headers to the ELF file.  Linux
ignores this appended info when it execs the file.  The info might
pollute the last page of the ELF segment, but Linux clears this
pollution.  Tools like nm and gdb can read the ELF symbol table.

I include code to translate debugger symbols to an ELF .stab section.
I did not test this code, because I did not find a platform that can
put S_STB symbols in the ack.out file.

George Koehler 8280ca8745 In aslod, remove some unused m68k2 stuff. 2016-12-13 16:02:38 -05:00
George Koehler 2874806048 Tweak man syntax in aelflod.1 and aslod.1
Put end of sentence at end of line.  This is roff(7) syntax so the
formatter can make spacing between sentences.

Use the macro .PP to break paragraphs.  Use bold for the command name
in SYNOPSIS, to match other ack manuals.

David Given bf2e0be69a Merge pull request #27 from kernigh/pr-qemu-doze
Teach qemuppc to halt the cpu on _exit().
2016-12-11 23:17:12 +01:00
David Given 62edb90641 Convert the inn test to work with the test library and not import InOut; it now
runs on qemuppc again. Reenable qemuppc tests.
