Predcates are boolean functions. There will be ISA predicates and instruction
predicates.
The ISA predicates will be turned into member functions on the generated Flags
structs.
Add an isa::lookup() function which serves as a target registry for creating
Box<TargetIsa> trait objects.
An isa::Builder makes it possible to confugure the trait object before it is
created.
- Move detail data structures into a settings::detail module to avoid polluting
the settings namespace.
- Rename generated data types to 'Flags' in anticipation of computed predicate
flags that can't be set. The Flags struct is immutable.
- Use a settings::Builder struct to manipulate settings, then pass it to
Flags::new().
This trait allows settings to be manipulated as strings, using descriptors and
constant hash-table lookups.
Amend gen_settings.py to generate the necessary constant tables.
Clarify terminology by always referring to a 'Target ISA' instead of just
'Target'. Use 'isa' as a module name instead of 'target' both in Rust and Python
code.
This is only to clarify terminology and not at all because Cargo insists on
using the 'target' sub-directory for build products. Oh, no. Not at all.
The shift instructions have two type variables since the shift amount can be a
differently sized integer. Fix the RISC-V shift encodings to reflect this, and
allow i64 registers to be shifted by an i32 amount.
Move the CPUMode reference from EncRecipe to the Encoding itself, allowing
EncRecipes to be shared between CPU modes. At least RISC-V should be able to
share some recipes between RV32 and RV64 modes.
Require this trait on the value type stored in an EntityMap to 'unlock' the
methods intended for primary entity maps that are allowed to create references
with the 'push method.
This prevents accidentally depending on these methods in secondary maps.
This iterator enumerates all EBB references whether they are in the layout or
not. That is usually not what is needed when working with the CFG.
It is better to iterate over EBB referrences in layout order, or in reverse
post-order and then call the get_predecessors() method for each Ebb reference.
See the new implementation of print_cfg::cfg_connections().
Create a secondary entity map with space reserved for a known range of entity
references.
Add dfg.num_ebbs() and dfg.num_insts() methods to provide capacities.
Rather than switching on instruction formats to discover the destination of a
branch, use the analyze_branch method which returns a BranchInfo enum with just
the relevant information.
This makes CFG algorithms independent of future instruction formats for
branches. Only analyze_branch needs to be updated when adding a new format.
- Add a ir::jumptable module with a JumpTableData struct representing the vector
of destinations.
- Add an entity map of jump tables to the Function.
- Parse and write jump tables in the function preamble.
- Rewrite EBB references in jumptables after parsing.
