"make alldeps" doesn't really like it when included files end in *.c.
Instead of renaming insnsb.c to insnsb.h, make it an actual
compilation unit, since there really isn't any reason for it not to
be.
Generate a byte array instead of using C compiler strings for the byte
codes. This has a few advantages:
- No need to special-case zero due to broken C compilers.
- Only insns.pl only ever reads the string, so we can invent our own
syntax.
- Compaction.
- We can give it the proper, unsigned type.
When using temporaries in macros, given them a unique prefix to avoid
namespace collisions when using one macro inside another.
Move the WSAA*() macros from outelf32/outelf64 to a separate header
file.
To deal with fools^Wpeople trying to keep really old systems alive,
create a proper framework for substitution functions, and make it
possible to deal with the lack of snprintf/vsnprintf in particular.
Add special operators to allow the use of floating-point constants in
contexts other than DW/DD/DQ/DT/DO.
As part of this checkin, make MAX_KEYWORD generated by tokhash.pl,
since it knows what all the keywords are so it can tell which one is
the longest.
Update nasm.spec.in to match modern conventions, and make it handle rc
releases by using the "mangled" version of the name (1.99.99.91
instead of 2.0rc1).
Sort the dependency lists generated by "mkdep.pl", to make sure that
re-running "make alldeps" doesn't change anything unless there has
been real dependency changes. The previous version could produce
different output between runs and across platforms.
Use the new hash table function library to store labels. When
compiling on my 64-bit system, it reduces the assembly time for the
output of test/perf/label.pl from 73 to 7 seconds.
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.
Since we fold the f- and g-functions together, if we guarantee that g is
bipartite, we can make g twice the size of f without cost. This greatly
improves the odds of generating a smaller hash.
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.
actually *use* the resulting configuration file, but it keeps autoconf
from creating an insanely long compiler command line, which can cause
problems all by itself. Eventually we can do:
#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
#include "config.h"
#endif
... to get the same information.
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.
