David Given 25b6712e63 Rework all the ackbuilder scripts not to use wildcards, because we can't expand
them without luaposix, which isn't available (easily) on OSX or Windows.
2022-07-14 23:57:54 +02:00
David Given bbb708717a Add the OPTIONS clause to the mcgg grammar; add an optional pass which converts
sequences of PUSHes to a single STACKADJUST followed by STOREs. This should
dramatically improve code on stack-unfriendly architectures like MIPS.
2018-09-22 11:19:00 +02:00
David Given 83cf1be6a8 mcgg now checks that registers have at most one type attribute set. 2018-09-03 22:03:57 +02:00
David Given a023fd8591 Better error reporting for unterminated strings. 2018-09-02 18:55:44 +02:00
George Koehler 0fc0faef08 Restore an assignment deleted in commit 789f79b.
Because of the accidental deletion, mcgg on my machine followed a
garbage pointer, and never wrote calls to emit_fragment.

A wrong call to `data->emit_reg(0, 0)` instead of the correct
`data->emit_fragment(0)` caused PowerPC mcg to emit an empty string
instead of `8(fp)`, causing a syntax error in PowerPC as.

The wrong `data->emit_reg(0, 0)` called the function emit_reg() in
mach/proto/mcg/pass_instructionselection.c, but that function
unfortunately has `if (vreg) { ... }`.  The call had vreg == NULL
because the fragment wasn't a vreg, but emit_reg() ignored the problem
and emit nothing.

David Given 789f79b369 Ansification, warning fixes, C89ification. 2017-08-06 12:42:17 +02:00
David Given d5328492d7 Better handling of float conversions; more tests; converting to unsigned ints
works now.
2016-11-20 11:27:40 +01:00
David Given d31bc6a3f9 Made csa and csb work with mcg; adjust the libem functions and the
corresponding invocation in the ncg table so the same helpers can be used for
both mcg and ncg. Add a new IR opcode, FARJUMP, which jumps to a helper
function but saves volatile registers.
2016-11-19 10:55:41 +01:00
David Given a311e61360 Add support for preserved registers. 2016-10-29 20:22:44 +02:00
David Given 61349389fb More opcodes. sti can now cope with non-standard sizes (really need a better
fix for this). Hack in crude support for mismatched stack pushes and pops (ints
vs longs).
2016-10-29 12:48:05 +02:00
David Given 2cc2c0ae98 Lots more opcodes. Rearrange the stack layout so that fp->ab is a fixed value
(needed for CHAINFP and FPTOAB). Wire up lfrs to calls via a phi when
necessary, to allow call-bra-lfr chains.
2016-10-29 11:57:56 +02:00
David Given 9977ce841a Remove the bytes1, bytes2, bytes4, bytes8 attributes; remove the concept of a
register 'type'; now use int/float/long/double throughout to identify
registers. Lots of register allocator tweaks and table bugfixes --- we now get
through the dreading Mathlib.mod!
2016-10-25 23:04:20 +02:00
David Given abd0cedd61 Massive change to how IR types are handled; we use the type code for matching
rather than the size. Much cleaner and simpler.
2016-10-23 21:54:14 +02:00
David Given b1a3d76d6f Re-re-add the type inference layer, now I know more about how things work.
Remove that terrible float promotion code.
2016-10-22 23:04:13 +02:00
David Given 11b0bc1055 More opcodes. 2016-10-22 20:32:51 +02:00
David Given 2d52b1fdaa Remove GETRET; values are now returned directly by CALL. Fix a bug in
convertstackops which was resulting in duplicate IR groups.
2016-10-22 12:13:57 +02:00
David Given ceb938fb3c More opcodes. 2016-10-22 11:26:28 +02:00
David Given 7ae888b754 Hacky workaround the way the Modula-2 compiler generates non-standard sized
loads and saves. More opcodes; simplified table using macros.
2016-10-22 10:48:22 +02:00
David Given f851ab83af Better (and more correct) floating point conversions; fif; various new opcodes. 2016-10-22 00:48:26 +02:00
David Given 4db402f229 Add (pretty crummy) support for register aliases and static pairs of registers.
We should have enough functionality now for rather buggy 8-bit ints and
doubles. Rework the table and the platform.c to match.
2016-10-21 23:31:00 +02:00
David Given d6984d60ac Add parsing support for register aliases. 2016-10-20 21:47:28 +02:00
David Given e4fec71f9c Lots more opcodes; better eviction behaviour; better register moves. Lots more
PowerPC stuff (some working).
2016-10-19 23:29:05 +02:00
David Given 6a06ce798b Add missing header that was causing builds to fail on Travis. 2016-10-16 17:58:01 +02:00
David Given 9504aec2bd Function termination gets routed through an exit block; we now have prologues
and epilogues. mcgg now exports some useful data as headers. Start factoring
out some of the architecture-specific bits into an architecture-specific file.
2016-10-15 18:38:46 +02:00
David Given 5ad3aa8595 Add a pile of new instructions used by Pascal; I'm going to need to think about
how locals and the local base are handled.
2016-10-15 13:07:59 +02:00
David Given 517120d0fb Allow asm names for registers which are different from the friendly names shown
in the tracing (because PowerPC register names are just numbers).
2016-10-15 11:42:47 +02:00
David Given bb17aea73a You can now mark a register as corrupting a certain register class; calls work,
or at least look like they work. The bad news is that the register allocator
has a rare talent for putting things in the wrong register.
2016-10-15 01:15:08 +02:00
David Given 98fe70a7de Output register equality constraints work. 2016-10-14 22:17:02 +02:00
David Given f06b51c981 Keep track of register types as well as attributes --- the type being how we
find new registers when evicting values. Input constraints work (they were
being ignored before). Various bug fixing so they actually work.
2016-10-12 22:58:46 +02:00
David Given 23c3575f0f The register allocator now makes a spirited attempt to honour register
attributes when allocating. Unfortunately, backward edges don't work (because
the limited def-use chain stuff doesn't work across basic blocks). Needs more
thought.
2016-10-09 15:09:34 +02:00
David Given cfe5312fcc Predicates can now take numeric arguments. The PowerPC predicates have been
turned into generic ones (as they'll be useful everywhere). Node arguments for
predicates require the '%' prefix for consistency. Hex numbers are permitted.
2016-10-09 12:32:36 +02:00
David Given 2198db69b1 Instruction predicates work now. 2016-10-08 11:35:33 +02:00
David Given 7f901aa4d0 We're not using 'allocates' any more; clean up. 2016-10-06 21:33:43 +02:00
David Given 88fb231d6e Better constraint syntax; mcgg now passes register usage information up to mcg;
mcg can track individual hop inputs and outputs (needed for live range
analysis!); the register allocator now puts the basic blocks into the right
order in preparation for live range analysis.
2016-10-05 22:56:25 +02:00
David Given 92502901a7 Better management of register data. Add struct hreg. 2016-10-05 21:00:28 +02:00
David Given 8d4186130d Oops --- hadn't updated the nts array for the new child order. 2016-10-04 21:32:28 +02:00
David Given bd28bddb92 Massive rewrite of how emitters and the instruction selector works, after I
realised that the existing approach wasn't working. Now, hopefully, tracks the
instruction trees generated during selection properly.
2016-10-04 00:16:06 +02:00
David Given 68f98cbad7 Instruction selection now happens on a shadow tree, rather than on the IR tree
itself. Currently it's semantically the same but the implementation is cleaner.
2016-10-03 20:52:36 +02:00
David Given 288ee56203 Get quite a long way towards basic output-register equality constraints (needed
to make special nodes like NOP work properly). Realise that the way I'm dealing
with the instruction selector is all wrong; I need to physically copy chunks of
tree to give to burg (so I can terminate them correctly).
2016-10-02 23:25:54 +02:00
David Given 3aa30e50d1 Come up with a syntax for register constraints. 2016-10-02 21:51:25 +02:00
David Given c079e97492 Perform SSA conversion of locals. Much, *much* better code now, at least
inasmuch as it looks better before register allocation. Basic blocks now know
their own successors and predecessors (after a certain point in the IR
processing).
2016-10-02 17:50:34 +02:00
David Given 21898f784a We're going to need some type inference after all, I think. Let's do a little
for now and see how it goes.
2016-10-01 19:10:22 +02:00
David Given 91e277e046 Predicates work; we now have prefers and requires clauses. Predicates must be
functions. Not convinced that semantic types are actually working --- there are
still problems with earlier statements leaving things in the wrong registers.
2016-10-01 13:56:52 +02:00
David Given 4a3a9a98dc It doesn't really make a lot of sense to have BURG nonterminal names different
to register classes, so combine them. Refactor the map code.
2016-10-01 12:17:14 +02:00
David Given 3a973a19f3 Move fatal(), warning() and aprintf() into the new data module (because they're
really useful).
2016-09-30 19:10:30 +02:00
David Given b32883b013 More properly keep track of register classes. 2016-09-29 22:32:43 +02:00
David Given b27758b7de Error check fragment rules which don't emit anything. 2016-09-29 22:14:11 +02:00
David Given 0d246c0d73 Much better handling of fragments (no run-time code needed to distinguish them
from registers) and better handling of individual hops within a paragraph ---
no more ghastly hacks to try and distinguish the input from the output.
2016-09-29 22:06:04 +02:00
David Given a0131fdb47 You know what, the type inference stuff is a complete red herring. What this
actually needs is a more intelligent register allocator. So, remove the type
inference.
2016-09-29 19:58:02 +02:00
David Given cc176e5183 Keep more data around about ir instructions. Implement a half-baked type
inference routine to propagate information about floats up the tree, so we know
whether to put floats into special registers as early as possible.
2016-09-26 22:12:46 +02:00
