when applying a custom set of CFLAGS under clang that does not include
-std=c99, asm is treated as a keyword and as such can not be used as an
identifier. this prevents the issue by renaming the offending variables.
Support "file" and "loc" directives. "file" takes a string (a file name)
assigns it a number, sets the current file to that number and records
the string for later. "loc" takes a single number and outputs location
information with a reference to the current file.
It is handy to express when
the end of a block cannot be
reached. If a hlt terminator
is executed, it traps the
program.
We don't go the llvm way and
specify execution semantics as
undefined behavior.
Symbols are a useful abstraction
that occurs in both Con and Alias.
In this patch they get their own
struct. This new struct packages
a symbol name and a type; the type
tells us where the symbol name
must be interpreted (currently, in
gobal memory or in thread-local
storage).
The refactor fixed a bug in
addcon(), proving the value of
packaging symbol names with their
type.
The general idea is to give abis a
chance to talk before we've done all
the optimizations. Currently, all
targets eliminate {par,arg,ret}{sb,ub,...}
during this pass. The forthcoming
arm64_apple will, however, insert
proper extensions during abi0.
Moving forward abis can, for example,
lower small-aggregates passing there
so that memory optimizations can
interact better with function calls.
apple support is more than assembly syntax
in case of arm64 machines, and apple syntax
is currently useless in all cases but amd64;
rather than having a -G option that only
makes sense with amd64, we add a new target
amd64_apple
The recent changes in arm and riscv
typclass() set ngp to 1 when a struct
is returned via a caller-provided
buffer. This interacts bogusly with
selret() that ends up declaring a gp
register live when none is set in
the returning sequence.
The fix is simply to set cty to zero
(all registers dead) in case a caller-
provided buffer is used.
Many things got fixed, but the most
notable change is the proper support
of floating point types in aggregates.
Minor fixes:
- selpar() did not deal correctly
with Cfpint
- typclass() was reading out of
bounds in the gp/fp arrays
- support for env calls
The risc-v abi needs to know if a
type is defined as a union or not.
We cannot use nunion to obtain this
information because the risc-v abi
made the unfortunate decision of
treating
union { int i; }
differently from
int i;
So, instead, I introduce a single
bit flag 'isunion'.
It is mostly complete, but still has a few ABI bugs when passing
floats in structs, or when structs are passed partly in register,
and partly on stack.
