This switches from a custom list of architectures to use the
target-lexicon crate.
- "set is_64bit=1; isa x86" is replaced with "target x86_64", and
similar for other architectures, and the `is_64bit` flag is removed
entirely.
- The `is_compressed` flag is removed too; it's no longer being used to
control REX prefixes on x86-64, ARM and Thumb are separate
architectures in target-lexicon, and we can figure out how to
select RISC-V compressed encodings when we're ready.
This adds a "colocated" flag to function and symbolic global variables which
indicates that they are defined along with the current function, so they can
use PC-relative addressing.
This also changes the function decl syntax; the name now always precedes the
signature, and the "function" keyword is no longer included.
To keep cross-compiling straightforward, Cretonne shouldn't have any
behavior that depends on the host. This renames the "Native" calling
convention to "SystemV", which has a defined meaning for each target,
so that it's clear that the calling convention doesn't change
depending on what host Cretonne is running on.
* Add a pre-opt optimization to change constants into immediates.
This converts 'iadd' + 'iconst' into 'iadd_imm', and so on.
* Optimize away redundant `bint` instructions.
Cretonne has a concept of "Testable" values, which can be either boolean
or integer. When the an instruction needing a "Testable" value receives
the result of a `bint`, converting boolean to integer, eliminate the
`bint`, as it's redundant.
* Postopt: Optimize using CPU flags.
This introduces a post-legalization optimization pass which converts
compare+branch sequences to use flags values on CPUs which support it.
* Define a form of x86's `urm` that doesn't clobber FLAGS.
movzbl/movsbl/etc. don't clobber FLAGS; define a form of the `urm`
recipe that represents this.
* Implement a DCE pass.
This pass deletes instructions with no side effects and no results that
are used.
* Clarify ambiguity about "32-bit" and "64-bit" in comments.
* Add x86 encodings for icmp_imm.
* Add a testcase for postopt CPU flags optimization.
This covers the basic functionality of transforming compare+branch
sequences to use CPU flags.
* Pattern-match irsub_imm in preopt.
This makes it easier to debug testcases:
- the entity numbers in a .cton file match the entity numbers used
within Cretonne.
- serializing and deserializing doesn't cause indices to change.
One disadvantage is that if a .cton file uses sparse entity numbers,
deserializing to the in-memory form doesn't compact it. However, the
text format is not intended to be performance-critical, so this isn't
expected to be a big burden.
We want to disable dominance checks in unreachable code. The
is_reachable() check for EBB parameter values was checking if the
defining EBB was reachable, not the EBB using the value.
This bug showed up in fuzzing and in #213.
Add EBB parameter and EBB argument to the langref glossary to clarify
the distinction between formal EBB parameter values and arguments passed
to branches.
- Replace "ebb_arg" with "ebb_param" in function names that deal with
EBB parameters.
- Rename the ValueDef variants to Result and Param.
- A bunch of other small langref fixes.
No functional changes intended.
The extend and reduce instructions have additional type constraints.
Stop inserting sextend instructions after ctz, clz, and popcnt when
translating from WebAssembly. The Cretonne instructions have the same
signature as the WebAssembly equivalents.
Add a settings::FlagsOrIsa struct which represents a flags reference and
optionally the ISA it belongs to. Use this for passing flags/isa
information to the verifier.
The verify_function() and verify_context() functions are now generic so
they accept either a &Flags or a &TargetISa argument.
Fix the return_at_end verifier tests which no longer require an ISA
specified. The signle "set return_at_end" flag setting now makes it to
the verifier even when no ISA is present to carry it.
The flag guarantees that the generated function does not have any
internal return instructions. If the function returns at all, the return
must be the last instruction.
For now just implement a verifier check for this property. When we get
CFG simplifiers and block layout optimizations, they will need to heed
the flag.
* Function names should start with %
* Create FunctionName from string
* Implement displaying of FunctionName as %nnnn with fallback to #xxxx
* Run rustfmt and fix FunctionName::with_string in parser
* Implement FunctionName::new as a generic function
* Binary function names should start with #
* Implement NameRepr for function name
* Fix examples in docs to reflect that function names start with %
* Rebase and fix filecheck tests
This test runs the verifier on each function and matches the resulting
verifier error against the "error:" annotation.
Move the existing verifier test into filetests/verifier/ and use the new
syntex.
