1. Updates to portable graph code. |
| 21 |
|
|
| 22 |
|
2. Major update to ml-nlffigen and ml-nlffi-lib. Things are much |
| 23 |
|
more scalable now so that even huge interfaces such as the one |
| 24 |
|
for GTK compile in finite time and space. :-) |

Description: |

|
|
| 33 |
|
Removed the native COPY and FCOPY instructions |
| 34 |
|
from all the architectures and replaced it with the |
| 35 |
|
explicit COPY instruction from the previous commit. |
| 36 |
|
|
| 37 |
|
It is now possible to simplify many of the optimizations |
| 38 |
|
modules that manipulate copies. This has not been |
| 39 |
|
done in this change. |

Tag: george-20011206-mlrisc-instruction |
| 45 |
|
Description: |
| 46 |
|
|
| 47 |
|
Changed the representation of instructions from being fully abstract |
| 48 |
|
to being partially concrete. That is to say: |
| 49 |
|
|
| 50 |
|
from |
| 51 |
|
type instruction |
| 52 |
|
|
| 53 |
|
to |
| 54 |
|
type instr (* machine instruction *) |
| 55 |
|
|
| 56 |
|
datatype instruction = |
| 57 |
|
LIVE of {regs: C.cellset, spilled: C.cellset} |
| 58 |
|
| KILL of {regs: C.cellset, spilled: C.cellset} |
| 59 |
|
| COPYXXX of {k: CB.cellkind, dst: CB.cell list, src: CB.cell list} |
| 60 |
|
| ANNOTATION of {i: instruction, a: Annotations.annotation} |
| 61 |
|
| INSTR of instr |
| 62 |
|
|
| 63 |
|
This makes the handling of certain special instructions that appear on |
| 64 |
|
all architectures easier and uniform. |
| 65 |
|
|
| 66 |
|
LIVE and KILL say that a list of registers are live or killed at the |
| 67 |
|
program point where they appear. No spill code is generated when an |
| 68 |
|
element of the 'regs' field is spilled, but the register is moved to |
| 69 |
|
the 'spilled' (which is present, more for debugging than anything else). |
| 70 |
|
|
| 71 |
|
LIVE replaces the (now deprecated) DEFFREG instruction on the alpha. |
| 72 |
|
We used to generate: |
| 73 |
|
|
| 74 |
|
DEFFREG f1 |
| 75 |
|
f1 := f2 + f3 |
| 76 |
|
trapb |
| 77 |
|
|
| 78 |
|
but now generate: |
| 79 |
|
|
| 80 |
|
f1 := f2 + f3 |
| 81 |
|
trapb |
| 82 |
|
LIVE {regs=[f1,f2,f3], spilled=[]} |
| 83 |
|
|
| 84 |
|
Furthermore, the DEFFREG (hack) required that all floating point instruction |
| 85 |
|
use all registers mentioned in the instruction. Therefore f1 := f2 + f3, |
| 86 |
|
defines f1 and uses [f1,f2,f3]! This hack is no longer required resulting |
| 87 |
|
in a cleaner alpha implementation. (Hopefully, intel will not get rid of |
| 88 |
|
this architecture). |
| 89 |
|
|
| 90 |
|
COPYXXX is intended to replace the parallel COPY and FCOPY available on |
| 91 |
|
all the architectures. This will result in further simplification of the |
| 92 |
|
register allocator that must be aware of them for coalescing purposes, and |
| 93 |
|
will also simplify certain aspects of the machine description that provides |
| 94 |
|
callbacks related to parallel copies. |
| 95 |
|
|
| 96 |
|
ANNOTATION should be obvious, and now INSTR represents the honest to God |
| 97 |
|
machine instruction set! |
| 98 |
|
|
| 99 |
|
The <arch>/instructions/<arch>Instr.sml files define certain utility |
| 100 |
|
functions for making porting easier -- essentially converting upper case |
| 101 |
|
to lower case. All machine instructions (of type instr) are in upper case, |
| 102 |
|
and the lower case form generates an MLRISC instruction. For example on |
| 103 |
|
the alpha we have: |
| 104 |
|
|
| 105 |
|
datatype instr = |
| 106 |
|
LDA of {r:cell, b:cell, d:operand} |
| 107 |
|
| ... |
| 108 |
|
|
| 109 |
|
val lda : {r:cell, b:cell, d:operand} -> instruction |
| 110 |
|
... |
| 111 |
|
|
| 112 |
|
where lda is just (INSTR o LDA), etc. |

|
1. Modifications to the SML/NJ code generator and to the runtime system |
| 151 |
|
so that code object name strings are directly inserted into code |
| 152 |
|
objects at code generation time. The only business the runtime system |
| 153 |
|
has with this is now to read the name strings on occasions. |
| 154 |
|
(The encoding of the name string has also changed somewhat.) |
| 155 |
|
|
| 156 |
|
2. CM now implements a simple "set calculus" for specifying export lists. |
| 157 |
|
In particular, it is now possible to refer to the export lists of |
| 158 |
|
other libraries/groups/sources and form unions as well as differences. |
| 159 |
|
See the latest CM manual for details. |
| 160 |
|
|
| 161 |
|
3. An separate notion of "proxy" libraries has again be eliminated from |
| 162 |
|
CM's model. (Proxy libraries are now simply a special case of using |
| 163 |
|
the export list calculus.) |
| 164 |
|
|
| 165 |
|
4. Some of the existing libraries now take advantage of the new set |
| 166 |
|
calculus. |
| 167 |
|
(Notice that not all libraries have been converted because some |
| 168 |
|
of the existing .cm-files are supposed to be backward compatible |
| 169 |
|
with 110.0.x.) |
| 170 |
|
|
| 171 |
|
5. Some cleanup in stand-alone programs. (Don't use "exnMessage" -- use |
| 172 |
|
"General.exnMessage"! The former relies on a certain hook to be |
| 173 |
|
initialized, and that often does not happen in the stand-alone case.) |

|

|
Fix for a backpatching bug reported by Allen. |
| 210 |
|
|
| 211 |
|
Because the boundary between short and long span-dependent |
| 212 |
|
instructions is +/- 128, there are an astounding number of |
| 213 |
|
span-dependent instructions whose size is over estimated. |
| 214 |
|
|
| 215 |
|
Allen came up with the idea of letting the size of span |
| 216 |
|
dependent instructions be non-monotonic, for a maxIter |
| 217 |
|
number of times, after which the size must be monotonically |
| 218 |
|
increasing. |
| 219 |
|
|
| 220 |
|
This table shows the number of span-dependent instructions |
| 221 |
|
whose size was over-estimated as a function of maxIter, for the |
| 222 |
|
file Parse/parse/ml.grm.sml: |
| 223 |
|
|
| 224 |
|
maxIter # of instructions: |
| 225 |
|
10 687 |
| 226 |
|
20 438 |
| 227 |
|
30 198 |
| 228 |
|
40 0 |
| 229 |
|
|
| 230 |
|
In compiling the compiler, there is no significant difference in |
| 231 |
|
compilation speed between maxIter=10 and maxIter=40. Actually, |
| 232 |
|
my measurements showed that maxIter=40 was a tad faster than |
| 233 |
|
maxIter=10! Also 96% of the files in the compiler reach a fix |
| 234 |
|
point within 13 iterations, so fixing maxIter at 40, while high, |
| 235 |
|
is okay. |

| 246 |
|
* Changed the return type of TypeUtil.getFunction accordingly. |
| 247 |

if there is a mismatch. |

NLFFIGEN: |

* temporarily disabled the mechanism that suppresses ML output for |

C definitions whose identifiers start with an underscore character |

|
* generate val bindings for enum constants |
| 266 |
|
* user can request that only one style (light or heavy) is being used; |
| 267 |
|
default is to use both (command-line arguments: -heavy and -light) |
| 268 |
|
* fixed bug in handling of function types involving incomplete pointers |
| 269 |
|
* generate ML entry points that take record arguments (i.e., using |

I provided a non-hook implementation of exnName (at the toplevel) and |
| 329 |
|
made the "dummy" implementation of exnMessage (at the toplevel) more |
| 330 |
|
useful: if nothing gets "hooked in", then at least you are going to |
| 331 |
|
see the exception name and a message indicating why you don't see more. |
| 332 |
|
|
| 333 |
|
[For the time being, programs that need exnMessage and want to use |
| 334 |
|
ml-build should either use General.exnMessage (strongly recommended) or |
| 335 |
|
refer to structure General at some other point so that CM sees a |
| 336 |
|
static dependency.] |
| 337 |
|
|

[Similar remarks go for "print" and "use": If you want to use their |

functionality in stand-alone programs generated by ml-build, then use |
| 340 |
|
TextIO.output and Backend.Interact.useFile (from $smlnj/compiler.cm).] |

that arguments that contain delimiters are passed through correctly. |

|
John committed some changes that Allen made, in particular a (hopefully) |
| 401 |
|
correctly working version of the x86-fp module. |
| 402 |
|
|
| 403 |
|
I changed the default setting of the Control.MLRISC.getFlag "x86-fast-fp" |
| 404 |
|
flag to "true". Everything seems to compile to a fixpoint ok, and |
| 405 |
|
"mandelbrot" speeds up by about 15%. |

1. Stefan Monnier's patch to fix a miscompilation problem that |
| 414 |
|
was brought to light by John Reppy's work on Moby. |
| 415 |
|
|
| 416 |
|
2. Implemented a minimal "structure Compiler" that contains just |
| 417 |
|
"version" and "architecture". The minimal version will be |
| 418 |
|
available when the full version is not. This is for backward- |
| 419 |
|
compatibility with code that wants to test Compiler.version. |
