//! Legalize instructions. //! //! A legal instruction is one that can be mapped directly to a machine code instruction for the //! target ISA. The `legalize_function()` function takes as input any function and transforms it //! into an equivalent function using only legal instructions. //! //! The characteristics of legal instructions depend on the target ISA, so any given instruction //! can be legal for one ISA and illegal for another. //! //! Besides transforming instructions, the legalizer also fills out the `function.encodings` map //! which provides a legal encoding recipe for every instruction. //! //! The legalizer does not deal with register allocation constraints. These constraints are derived //! from the encoding recipes, and solved later by the register allocator. use flowgraph::ControlFlowGraph; use ir::{Function, Cursor, DataFlowGraph, InstructionData, Opcode, InstBuilder}; use ir::condcodes::IntCC; use isa::{TargetIsa, Legalize}; mod boundary; mod split; /// Legalize `func` for `isa`. /// /// - Transform any instructions that don't have a legal representation in `isa`. /// - Fill out `func.encodings`. /// pub fn legalize_function(func: &mut Function, cfg: &mut ControlFlowGraph, isa: &TargetIsa) { boundary::legalize_signatures(func, isa); func.encodings.resize(func.dfg.num_insts()); // Process EBBs in a reverse post-order.
