It was the caller's responsibility to call TargetIsa::check() before;
now one can't manipulate a TargetIsa without calling the
TargetIsaBuilder::finish() method, which is less error-prone and more in
line with what's coming for other things we're going to generate in the
meta crate.
Also splits the construction of a RegClass in two parts: a prototype is
made first when declaring the RegClass, and missing bits are filled in
when adding it to the TargetIsa(Builder). This avoids an awkward passing
of the isa to the RegClass ctor.
Add an explicit "is_ghost" property to selected instructions, and use
that to determine whether reload and coloring should visit instructions.
This allows them to visit fallthrough_return instructions and insert
fills and register moves as needed.
When one value is used multiple times for separate return values, we
need to copy it to produce a new value, so that each value can be
allocated a different register.
The new wasmparser API provides dedicated reader types for each section
type, which significantly simplifies the code.
This also changes WasmError::from_binary_reader_error into a From
trait so that we don't have to do .map_err(from_binary_reader_error)
throughout the code.
Passing it by reference was an artifact of an earlier version of the
TargetFrontendConfig code, but it's no longer needed, as
TargetFrontendConfig is now a Copy type.
* Introduce a `TargetFrontendConfig` type.
`TargetFrontendConfig` is information specific to the target which is
provided to frontends to allow them to produce Cranelift IR for the
target. Currently this includes the pointer size and the default calling
convention.
The default calling convention is now inferred from the target, rather
than being a setting. cranelift-native is now just a provider of target
information, rather than also being a provider of settings, which gives
it a clearer role.
And instead of having cranelift-frontend routines require the whole
`TargetIsa`, just require the `TargetFrontendConfig`, and add a way to
get the `TargetFrontendConfig` from a `Module`.
Fixes#529.
Fixes#555.
We no longer need the Ubuntu LTS restriction, so now the only only
constraint I'm aware of is Firefox's policy. Fortunately, that tracks
the latest stable delayed by only two weeks. So this puts is at
Rust 1.29 now.
