The legalize_signature() function will return ArgumentLoc::Reg arguments
that contain a register unit. However, the register also needs to be
able to associate a register class with the argument values to fully
track the used registers.
When values are defined by instructions, the register class is part for
the operand constraints for the instruction. For values defined on ABI
boundaries like function arguments and return values from a call, the
register class is provided by the new regclass_for_abi_type() function.
Provide implementations of this function in abi modules of all the
targets, even those that don't have a legalize_signature()
implementation yet.
Since we're adding abi modules to all targets, move the
legalize_signature() stubs in there and make the function mandatory in
TargetIsa. All targets will eventually need this function.
Soon, InstructionData won't have sufficient information to compute this.
Give TargetIsa::encode() an explicit ctrl_typevar argument. This
function does not require the instruction to be inserted in the DFG
tables.
Two new pieces of information are available for all encoding recipes:
- The size in bytes of an encoded instruction, and
- The range of a branch encoded with the recipe, if any.
In the meta language, EncRecipe takes two new constructor arguments. The
size is required for all encodings and branch_range is required for all
recipes used to encode branches.
The tables returned by recipe_names() and recipe_constraints() are now
collected into an EncInfo struct that is available from
TargetIsa::encoding_info(). This is equivalent to the register bank
tables available fro TargetIsa::register_info().
This cleans of the TargetIsa interface and makes it easier to add
encoding-related information.
Use the meta language encoding recipes to generate an emit_inst()
function for each ISA. The generated calls into recipe_*() functions
that must be implemented by hand.
Implement recipe_*() functions for the RISC-V recipes.
Add the TargetIsa::emit_inst() entry point which emits an instruction to
a CodeSink trait object.
Some polymorphic instructions don't return the controlling type
variable, so it has to be computed from the designated operand instead.
- Add a requires_typevar_operand() method to the operand constraints
which indicates that.
- Add a ctrl_typevar(dfg) method to InstructionData which computes the
controlling type variable correctly, and returns VOID for monomorphic
instructions.
- Use ctrl_typevar(dfg) to drive the level-1 encoding table lookups.
On ISAs with no instruction predicates, just emit an unimplemented!()
stub for the check_instp() function. It is unlikely that a finished ISA
will not have any instruction predicates.
Every encoding recipe must specify register constraints on input and
output values.
Generate recipe constraint tables along with the other encoding tables.
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.
