In the prior code, enabling optimization effectively diabled
critical expression checking, because the optimization passes
took place before checking was enabled.
Clean up remaining build warnings. None of this should affect code
operations. The only warnings which were actually relevant might have
been the ones in ldrdf.c, but it's not clear if anyone ever uses that.
Permit opcode names to be used as labels if and only if they are
succeeded by a colon. Opcode names occurring when parsing expressions
are all treated as labels; a leading colon occurred when parsing an
instruction forces a parser restart with the instruction forcibly
treated as an identifier.
Use a 32-bit limb size ("like a digit, but bigger") for floating-point
conversion. This cuts the number of multiplications per constant by a
factor of four.
This means supporting fractional-limb-sized numbers, so while we're at
it, add support for 8-bit floating point numbers (apparently used in
graphics and in audio compression applications.)
Revamp the address- and prefix-handling code to make more sense in
64-bit mode. We are now a lot closer to where we want to be, but
we're not quite there yet.
ndisasm may very well have problems, or give counterintuitive output.
However, checking it in so we can make forward progress.
Both C and C++ have "bool", "true" and "false" in lower case; C
requires <stdbool.h> for this, in C++ it is an inherent type built
into the compiler. Use those instead of the old macros; emulate with
a simple typedef enum if unavailable.
Change cloc_t to struct location, and reorder the members so that it
should fit in 16 bytes instead of needing 8 bytes of extra padding on
64-bit machines.
Change loc_t to cloc_t to avoid AIX conflict.
We really shouldn't use _t names at all; they are usually considered
platform types, but worry about that later.
Concentrate compiler dependencies to compiler.h; make sure compiler.h
is included first in every .c file (since some prototypes may depend
on the presence of feature request macros.)
Actually use the conditional inclusion of various functions (totally
broken in previous releases.)
Implement oword, reso, do, as well as the SO flag to instructions. No
instructions are actually flagged with SO yet, but this allows us to
specify 128-bit sizes in instruction patterns.
Support r/m operands for non-integer operands types, i.e. mmx or xmm
operands. This allows mmx and xmm operands to be written more
compactly, speeding up the assembler.
We have a lot of enumerations; by declaring fields as such, we make it
easier when debugging, since the debugger can display the enumerations
in cleartext. However, make sure exceptional values (like -1) are
included in the enumeration, since the compiler otherwise may not
include it in the valid range of the enumeration.
Finish the perfect hash tokenizer, and actually enable it.
Move stdscan() et al to a separate file, since it's not needed in any
of the clients of nasmlib other than nasm itself.
Run make alldeps.
Implement "REL" and "ABS" modifiers for offsets in 64-bit mode. This
replaces "rip+XXX" type addressing. The infrastructure to set the default
mode is there, but there is nothing to throw the switch just yet.
a) Automatically generate dependencies for all Makefiles;
b) Move register definitions to a separate .dat file;
c) Add support for "unimplemented but there in theory" registers.
