David Given a311e61360 Add support for preserved registers. 2016-10-29 20:22:44 +02:00
David Given 658db4ba71 Mangle label names (turns out that the ACK assembler can't really cope with
labels that are the same name as instructions...).
2016-10-27 23:17:16 +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 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 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 7aa60a6451 Register spilling to the stack frame works, more or less. 2016-10-15 22:53:56 +02:00
David Given 0eb32e7553 Fix yet another bug to do with IR register outputs. 2016-10-15 19:14:25 +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 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 bb53a7fb51 Fix stupid issue where hop output registers were being overwritten, leading to
invalid SSA form.
2016-10-14 23:12:29 +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 637aeed70a Only allocate an output vreg if the instruction actually wants one. 2016-10-08 12:15:21 +02:00
David Given 9ebf731335 Minor cleanup. 2016-10-08 11:07:28 +02:00
David Given 4e49830e09 Overhaul of everything phi related; critical edge splitting now happens before
anything SSA happens; liveness calculations now look like they might be
working.
2016-10-08 00:21:23 +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 c6f576f758 Bodge in enough phi support to let the instruction generator complete on basic
programs.
2016-10-04 21:58:31 +02:00
David Given e13ff5be31 Don't allocate new vregs for REG and NOP --- a bit hacky, but suppresses stray
movs very effectively.
2016-10-04 21:29:03 +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 a3cfe6047f More rigorous dealing of IR groups; no need for is_generated and is_root any
more (but now passes are required to set IR roots properly when changing
instructions).
2016-10-01 22:58:29 +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 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 4572f1b774 Actually, I don't need vregs: hops work just as well. Particularly if I
restructure things so that I don't need to walk the blasted ir / burg tree
every time I look at an instruction.
2016-09-27 23:38:47 +02:00
David Given e77c5164cf Fleshed out hops and vregs. The result is almost looking like code now ---
uncanny.
2016-09-27 00:19:45 +02:00
David Given c4b8e00ae2 Revamp the array module not to use nasty macros any more. Slightly more verbose
to use, but definitely cleaner.
2016-09-26 22:48:58 +02:00
David Given 416b13fd76 Start factoring out the hardware op code. 2016-09-25 23:29:59 +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 bde5792b1a Collapse several rule arrays into one; actually generate the array properly. 2016-09-25 17:14:54 +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 717b77dd0a Instruction selection is so important the file needs a longer name. 2016-09-24 22:50:53 +02:00
Renamed from mach/proto/mcg/pass_instsel.c (Browse further)
