An SSA value is usually biased towards a specific register class or a
stack slot, depending on the constraints of the instructions using it.
Represent this bias as an Affinity enum, and implement a merging
algorithm for updating an affinity to satisfy a new constraint.
Affinities will be computed as part of the liveness analysis. This is
not implemented yet.
Every encoding recipe must specify register constraints on input and
output values.
Generate recipe constraint tables along with the other encoding tables.
This set of available register units also manages register aliasing in
an efficient way.
Detect if the units in a register straddles mask words. The algorithm
for allocating multi-unit registers expect the whole register to be
inside a single mask word. We could handle this if necessary, but so far
no ISAs need it.
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.
Give these crates each a more standard directory layout with sources in
a 'src' sub-sirectory and Cargo.toml in the top lib/foo directory.
Add license and description fields to each.
The build script for the cretonne crate now lives in
'lib/cretonne/build.rs' separating it from the normal library sources
under 'lib/cretonne/src'.
