The array access code was loading the vector, modifying the element,
then forgetting to write the modified vector back to whence it came.
However, that would be rather sub-optimal, so now when the vector is
accessed by a pointer, the array code switches to field access to get at
the vector element thus avoiding the need to copy the whole vector.
Needed for proper analysis (ud-chains etc). Of course, it was then
necessary to remove the parameter defs from the uninitialized defs.
Also, plug a couple of memory leaks (forgot to free some temporary
sets).
That is, `array + offset`. This actually works around the bug
highlighted by arraylife.r (because the array is explicitly used), but
is not a proper solution, so that test still fails of course. However,
with this, it's no longer necessary to use `&array[index]` instead of
`array + index`.
I could never remember what any of the numbers meant. While define is
still a little fuzzy (they're (pseudo)statement numbers), at least now
I'll always know that the numbers are the define set. Also, having the
flow address of the variable helps with understanding the reaching defs
output.
It seems that the optimizer keeps array assignments live when passing
the array as a pointer, but not when passing the address of an element.
Found when testing the following code:
BasisBlade *pga_blades[16] = {
blades[1], blades[2], blades[3], blades[4],
blades[7], blades[6], blades[5], blades[0],
blades[8], blades[9], blades[10], blades[15],
blades[14], blades[13], blades[12], blades[11],
};
BasisGroup *pga_groups[4] = {
[BasisGroup new:4 basis:&pga_blades[ 0]],
[BasisGroup new:4 basis:&pga_blades[ 4]],
[BasisGroup new:4 basis:&pga_blades[ 8]],
[BasisGroup new:4 basis:&pga_blades[12]],
};
Only the first element of pga_blades is being assigned in the optimized
code, but everything is correct when not optimizing.
I had messed up the handling of declarators for combinations of pointer,
function, and array: the pointer would get lost (and presumably arrays
of functions etc). I think I had gotten confused and thought things were
a tree rather than a simple list, but Holub set me straight once again
(I've never regretted getting that book). Once I understood that, it was
just a matter of finding all the places that needed to be fixed. Nicely,
most of the duplicated code has been refactored and should be easier to
debug in the future.
It turns out I broke the type system when it comes to pointers to
functions and arrays. This test checks basic function and array pointers
and passes with qfcc from before the type system rework.
The type system rewrite had lost some of the checks for function fields.
This puts the actual code in the one place and covers parameters as well
as globals.
Internally, * is not really a valid operator for vectors since it can
have many meanings. This didn't cause trouble until trying to build
everything in game-source (since there's still a lot of legacy code in
there).
The precedence check changes done in
63795e790b seem to have been incorrect
(game-source/ctf produced many false positives), so putting that check
against '=' back into the code seems like a good idea (no more false
positives). That sounds a bit cargo-cult, but I'm really not sure what I
was thinking when I did the changes (probably just tired).
This applies only to the top-level scope of the function. I'm not sure
if it's right for traditional quakec code, but that can be adjusted
easily enough.
The symtab code itself cares only about global/not global for the size
of the hash table, but other code can use the symtab type for various
checks (eg, parameter shadowing).
Along with QuakeC's, of course. This fixes type typeredef2 test (a lot
of work for one little syntax error). Unfortunately, it came at the cost
of requiring `>>` in front of state expressions on C-style functions
(QuakeC-style functions are unaffected). Also, there are now two
shift/reduce conflicts with structs and unions (but these same conflicts
are in gcc 3.4).
This has highlighted the need for having the equivalent of the
expression tree for the declaration system as there are now several
hacks to deal with the separation of types and declarators. But that's a
job for another week.
The grammar constructs for declarations come from gcc 3.4's parser (I
think it's the last version of gcc that used bison. Also, 3.4 is still
GPL 2, so no chance of an issue there).
This simplifies type type_specifier rule significantly as now TYPE_SPEC
(was TYPE) includes all types and their basic modifiers (long, short,
signed, unsigned). This should allow me to make the type system closer
to gcc's (as of 3.4 as that seems to be the last version that used a
bison parser) and thus fix typeredef2.
typeredef1 parses properly but fails due to it erroneously complaining
that foo is redeclared as a different kind of object (it's the same
kind).
typeredef2 is the real problem in that it's a syntax error when it
should not be. This has proven to be a show-stopper for development on
my laptop as it has very recent vulkan headers which have such a
duplicate typedef.
Once a unicode char (ie, > 127) was used, any ascii chars would get the
tail of the last unicode char resulting in broken utf-8 streams. The
resulting null glyph boxes were not very appealing.
This fixes the basic vecconst test (extending it to other types breaks
because long and ulong are not properly supported yet). The conversion
is done by the progs VM rather than writing another 256 conversions
(though loops could be used). This works nicely as a test for using the
VM to help with compiling.
Raw 'x y z' style vector constants that look like ints (no fractional
parts) used to initialize vector globals/constants don't get converted
to float vectors, resulting in nans for negative values and denormals
for positive values. This tends to make game physics... interesting.
While the option to make '*' mean dot product for vectors is important,
it breaks vector scaling in ruamoko progs as the resultant vector op
becomes a dot product instead of the indented hadamard product (ie,
component-wise).
The common idiom for self init (below) causes a double-call when
compiling with --advanced, resulting in an incorrect retain count.
if (!(self = [super init])) {
return nil;
}
The support for the new vector types broke compiling code using
--advanced. Thus it's necessary to ensure vector constants are
float-type and vec3 and vec4 are treated as vector and quaternion, which
meant resurrecting the old vector expression code for v6p progs.
The method is still held by known_methods, so freeing it causes grief.
However, it may cause a leak thus the free is only commented out. More
investigation is needed. I'm surprised the problem didn't show on linux,
but cygwin-native hit it and valgrind on linux found the spot :)
While it does get a bit cluttered currently, being able to see the
contents of structures makes a huge difference. Also highlights that
vector immediates do not get the correct type encodings.
This fixes the internal error generated by the likes of
`(sv_gravity * '0 0 1')` where sv_gravity is a float and `'0 0 1'` is an
ivec3: the vector is promoted to vec3 first so that expanding sv_gravity
is expanded to vec3 instead of ivec3 (which is not permitted for a
float: expansion requires the destination base type to be the same as
the source).
For now, anyway, as the generated code looks good. There might be
problems with actual pointer expressions, but it allows entity.field to
work as expected rather than generate an ICE.
The resultant unicode is encoded as utf-8, which does conflict with the
quake character map, but right now unicode is useful only with font
text, and those support only standard unicode (currently only as utf-8),
but something will need to be sorted out.
Arrays are passed as a pointer to the first element, so are always valid
parameters. Fixes a bogus "formal parameter N is too large to be passed
by value" error.
