And other related fields so integer is now int (and uinteger is uint). I
really don't know why I went with integer in the first place, but this
will make using macros easier for dealing with types.
They are both gone, and pr_pointer_t is now pr_ptr_t (pointer may be a
little clearer than ptr, but ptr is consistent with things like intptr,
and keeps the type name short).
I don't know why they were ever signed (oversight at id and just
propagated?). Anyway, this resulted in "unsigned" spreading a bit, but
all to reasonable places.
This includes calls and unconditional jumps, relative and through a
table. The parameters are all lumped into the one object, with some
being unused by the different types (eg, args and ret_type used only by
call expressions). Just having nice names for the parameters (instead of
e1 and e2) makes it nice, even with all the sub-types lumped together.
No mysterious type aliasing bugs this time ;)
The move operator names are definitely obsolete (due to dropping the
expressions a year or two ago) and the precedence checks seem to be
handled elsewhere. Memset and state expressions went away a while back
too.
While this was a pain to get working, that pain only went to prove the
value of using proper "types" (even if only an enum) for different
expression types: just finding all the places to edit was a chore, and
easy to make mistakes (forgetting bits here and there).
Strangely enough, this exposed a pile of *type* aliasing bugs (next
commit).
v6 vs v6p are more or less as before, with ruamoko added in. qfcc will
now try (and fail, due to the opcode table opnames being wrong) to
create ruamoko progs when given the ruamoko target option.
At this stage, I doubt emit.c will need to know the details of the
target (v6, v6p, ruamoko) since the instruction formats are identical,
just different meanings for the opcode itself.
This allows v6, v6p (older QF VM) or ruamoko (new QF VM) to be targeted.
Currently defaults to v6p to allow QF to continue building without too
much hassle.
While qfcc dealing sensibly with mixed target VMs in the object files
has always been an outstanding issue, with the new instruction set it
has become a priority. Most importantly, this should allow QF to
continue building while I work on qfcc targeting the new IS.
It does little good for documentation to refer to fields that don't
exist (because a certain someone forgot to change the docs when changing
the field names, I wonder who :P).
And partial implementations in qfcc (most places will generate an
internal error (not implemented) or segfault, but some low-hanging fruit
has already been implemented).
This allows the VM to select the right execution loop and qfcc currently
still produces only the old IS (it doesn't know how to deal with the new
IS yet)
build_struct was unconditionally setting the type's alignment. This was
not a problem before because no types were requesting alignments larger
than those requested by their members (for structs). However, with the
upcoming new instruction set, quaternions need to be 4-word aligned.
For int, long, float and double. I've been meaning to add them for a
while, and they're part of the new Ruamoko instructions set (which is
progressing nicely).
The opcode table is a nightmare to maintain, but this does clean it up
and speed up opcode lookups since they can now be indexed. Of course, it
turns out I had missed adding several instructions, so had to fix that,
and qfcc needed a bit of a re-jigger to get the opcode out of the table.
The assignment to the node's variable must come after any uses of that
node, which the node's parent set indicates. In the swap test, this was
not a problem as the node had no parents, and in the link order test, it
just happened(?) to work.
While using just the label node's reachable set was sufficient for a
simple swap (t = a; a = b; b = t;), it is not sufficient for
read-before-write dependencies such as found in linked-list building:
{ o = array[ind]; o.next = obj; obj = o; }
The assignment to o.next uses obj, but that use is hidden because obj's
reachable nodes does not include o thus assigning o to obj causes the
array dereference to be assigned directly to obj and thus o.next winds
up pointing to o instead of whatever obj was. The parent nodes of obj's
node are its users, so any new assigned to obj must come after those
parents as well as any node reachable by obj's node.
Fixes a runaway loop error when adding a frikbot to the server.
qfo_to_progs was modifying the space data pointers in the input qfo,
making it impossible to reuse the qfo. However, qfo_relocate_refs needs
the updated pointers, thus do a shallow copy of the qfo and its spaces
(but not any of the data)
build_builtin_function does the right thing, and it was only legacy
syntax functions that were affected anyway. Certainly, external
variables should not be initialized, but klik uses @extern { } wrapped
around several builtin functions and I had added the feature to allow
just this as it is rather convenient.
I decided that the check for whether control reaches the end of the
function without performing some necessary action (eg, invoking
[super dealoc] in a derived -dealoc) is conceptually the return
statement using a pseudo operand and the necessary action defining that
pseudo operand and thus is the same as checking for uninitialised
variables. Thus, add a pseudo operand type and use one to represent the
invocation of [super alloc], with a special function to call when the
"used" pseudo operand is "uninitialised".
While I currently don't know what else pseudo operands could be used
for, the system should be flexible enough to add any check.
Fixes#24
I want to use the function's pseudo address that was used for managing
aliased temporary variables for other pseudo operands as well. The new
name seems to better reflect the variable's purpose even without the
other pseudo operands as temporary variables are, effectively, pseudo
operands until they are properly allocated.
Forgetting to invoke [super dealloc] in a derived class's -dealloc
method has caused me to waste far too much time chasing down the
resulting memory leaks and crashes. This is actually the main focus of
issue #24, but I want to take care of multiple paths before I consider
the issue to be done.
However, as a bonus, four cases were found :)
While get_selector does the job of getting a selector from a selector
reference expression, I have long considered lumping various expression
types under ex_expr to be a mistake. Not only is this a step towards
sorting that out, it will make working on #24 easier.
I have gotten tired of chasing memory leaks caused by me forgetting to
add [super dealloc] to my dealloc methods, so getting qfcc to chew me
out when I do seems to be a good idea (having such a warning would have
saved me many hours, just as missing return warnings have).
