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 a311e61360 Add support for preserved registers. 2016-10-29 20:22:44 +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 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.

David Given d6984d60ac Add parsing support for register aliases. 2016-10-20 21:47:28 +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 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 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 3aa30e50d1 Come up with a syntax for register constraints. 2016-10-02 21:51:25 +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 b32883b013 More properly keep track of register classes. 2016-09-29 22:32:43 +02:00
David Given 39aa672422 Sort of keep track of registers and register classes. Start walking the
generated instruction tree --- holy cow, they look like instructions!
2016-09-25 22:17:14 +02:00
David Given bcc74ba18d Stupid stringlist is stupid. Use a proper data structure, properly abstracted
out (so other things can use it).
2016-09-25 12:18:39 +02:00
David Given 9f78e0b36b Rethink the way patterns are mapped to rules; generate emitters (probably
badly).
2016-09-25 11:49:51 +02:00
David Given 7c028bdd45 We now record the code fragments to be emitted by each rule. 2016-09-25 00:21:46 +02:00
David Given 629e0ddfc6 Some instruction selection is now happening. 2016-09-24 22:46:08 +02:00
David Given c8fcbe282a More grammar changes. 2016-09-24 19:03:55 +02:00
David Given 2acc4ed29d IR codes are now owned by mcgg; ir terminals are inserted into the table during
compilation (so you can refer to them).
2016-09-24 18:31:35 +02:00
David Given 960259f0b0 Add support for labelled tree nodes. 2016-09-24 12:11:30 +02:00
David Given 4546dd5f22 Massive grammar overhaul and refactor. Hacked in support for predicates, where
instructions can be turned on and off based on their parameters. New lexer
using a lexer. Now quite a lot of the way towards being a real instruction
selector.
2016-09-21 00:43:10 +02:00
David Given 2183c6c622 Run through clang-format. 2016-09-20 21:00:16 +02:00
David Given 13c117d15d Import iburg. 2016-09-20 20:37:16 +02:00
