The new PrimaryMap replaces the primary EntityMap and the PrimaryEntityData
marker trait which was causing some confusion. We now have a clear
division between the two types of maps:
- PrimaryMap is used to assign entity numbers to the primary data for an
entity.
- EntityMap is a secondary mapping adding additional info.
The split also means that the secondary EntityMap can now behave as if
all keys have a default value. This means that we can get rid of the
annoying ensure() and get_or_default() methods ther were used everywhere
instead of indexing. Just use normal indexing now; non-existent keys
will return the default value.
The Cursor navigation methods all just depend on the cursor's position
and layout reference. Make a CursorBase trait that provides access to
this information with methods and implement the navigation methods on
top of that.
This makes it possible to have multiple types implement the cursor
interface.
A CallConv enum on every function signature makes it possible to
generate calls to functions with different calling conventions within
the same ISA / within a single function.
The calling conventions also serve as a way of customizing Cretonne's
behavior when embedded inside a VM. As an example, the SpiderWASM
calling convention is used to compile WebAssembly functions that run
inside the SpiderMonkey virtual machine.
All function signatures must have a calling convention at the end, so
this changes the textual IL syntax.
Before:
sig1 = signature(i32, f64) -> f64
After
sig1 = (i32, f64) -> f64 native
sig2 = (i32) spiderwasm
When printing functions, the signature goes after the return types:
function %r1() -> i32, f32 spiderwasm {
ebb1:
...
}
In the parser, this calling convention is optional and defaults to
"native". This is mostly to avoid updating all the existing test cases
under filetests/. When printing a function, the calling convention is
always included, including for "native" functions.
* Avoid floating-point types in Ieee32::new and Ieee64::new.
This eliminates the need for unsafe code in code that uses Cretonne, a few
instances of unsafe code in Cretonne itself, and eliminates the only instance
of floating point in Cretonne.
* Rename new to with_bits, and new_from_float to with_float.
* API and data structures proposal for the SSA construction module
* Polished API and implemented trivial functions
* API more explicit, Variable now struct parameter
* Sample test written to see how the API could be used
* Implemented local value numbering for SSABuilder
* Implemented SSA within a single Ebb
* Unfinished unoptimized implementation for recursive use and seal
* Working global value numbering
The SSABuilder now create ebb args and modifies jump instructions accordingly
* Updated doc and improved branch argument modifying.
Removed instructions::branch_arguments and instructions::branch_argument_mut
* SSA building: bugfix, asserts and new test case
Missing a key optimization to remove cycles of Phi
* SSA Building: small changes after code review
Created helper function for seal_block (which now contains sanity checks)
* Optimization: removed useless phis (ebb arguments)
Using pessimistic assumption that when using a non-def variable in an unsealed block we create an ebb argument which is removed when sealing if we detect it as useless
Using aliases to avoid rewriting variables
* Changed the semantics of remove_ebb_arg and turned it into a proper API method
* Adapted ssa branch to changes in the DFG API
* Abandonned SparseMaps for EntityMaps, added named structure for headr block data.
* Created skeletton for a Cretonne IL builder frontend
* Frontend IL builder: first draft of implementation with example of instruction methods
* Working basic implementation of the frontend
Missing handling of function arguments and return values
* Interaction with function signature, sample test, more checks
* Test with function verifier, seal and fill sanity check
* Implemented python script to generate ILBuilder methods
* Added support for jump tables and stack slot
* Major API overhaul
* No longer generating rust through Python but implements InstBuilder
* No longer parametrized by user's blocks but use regular `Ebb`
* Reuse of allocated memory via distinction between ILBuilder and FunctionBuilder
* Integrate changes from StackSlot
* Improved error message
* Added support for jump arguments supplied by the user
* Added an ebb_args proxy method needed
* Adapted to Entity_ref splitted into a new module
* Better error messages and fixed tests
* Added method to change jump destination
* We whould be able to add unreachable code
* Added inst_result proxy to frontend
* Import support
* Added optimization for SSA construction:
If multiple predecessors but agree on value don't create EBB argument
* Move unsafe and not write-only funcs apart, improved doc
* Added proxy function for append_ebb_arg
* Support for unreachable code and better layout of the Ebbs
* Fixed a bug yielding an infinite loop in SSA construction
* SSA predecessors lookup code refactoring

* Extended set of characters printable in function names
To be able to print names of functions in test suite
* Fixes and improvements of SSA construction after code review
* Bugfixes for frontend code simplification
* On-the-fly critical edge splitting in case of br_table with jump arguments
* No more dangling undefined values, now attached as EBB args
* Bugfix: only split corresponding edges on demand, not all br_table edges
* Added signature retrieval method
* Bugfix for critical edge splitting not sealing the ebbs it created
