This makes it a little simpler to generate 'match' statements, and
it performs deduplication of identical arms. And it means I don't
have to think about as many strings like '{} {{ {}.. }} => {}'
when I'm trying to think about how instructions work :-).
This allows the assertions to be disabled in release builds, so that
the code is faster and smaller, at the expense of not performing the
checks. Assertions can be re-enabled in release builds with the
debug-assertions flag in Cargo.toml, as the top-level Cargo.toml
file does.
* gen_settings: dont try to display a Preset descriptor in Flags
Trying to display a preset doesnt make sense, and before this commit it
does not display anything meaningful - the printout just says e.g.
"haswell =\n".
The offset byte a preset descriptor isnt a valid offset into the
flag bytes, it is actually an offset into the PRESETS table. It will
cause a panic when the offset is out of bounds for the flag bytes,
which happens in the intel isa as of this commit.
* intel settings: test that display impl doesnt panic
The name of a predicate was only ever used for named settings that are
computed as a boolean expression of other settings.
- Record the names of these settings in named_predicates instead.
- Remove the name field from all predicates.
Named predicates does not interact well with the interning of predicates
through isa.unique_pred().
The encoding tables contain references to numbered ISA predicates.
- Give the ISA Flags types a predicate_view() method which returns a
PredicateView.
- Delete the old predicate_bytes() method which returned a raw &[u8].
- Use a 'static lifetime for the encoding list slice in the Encodings
iterator, and a single 'a lifetime for everything else.
Fixes#11.
Presets are groups of settings and values applied at once. This is used
as a shorthand in test files, so for example "isa intel nehalem" enables
all of the CPUID bits that the Nehalem micro-architecture provides.
* Implement an iterator over encodings
* Implement TargetIsa::legal_encodings
* Exclude non-boolean settings of isa flags bytes
* Address flake8 long line error
The intel, arm32, and arm32 targets were only defined in the meta
language previously. Add Rust implementations too.
This is mostly boilerplate, except for the unit tests in the
registers.rs files.
The 'lib/cretonne' directory will be the new root of a stand-alone
cretonne crate containg both Python and Rust sources.
This is in preparation for publishing crates on crates.io.
