and aliases for result and function name are added using absolutesym
* vs_hidden parameter for funcret passed in parameter
* vs_hidden fixes
* writenode changed to printnode and released from extdebug
* -vp option added to generate a tree.log with the nodetree
* nicer printnode for statements, callnode
* Fixed registers that are allocated but not freed in several nodes
* Tweak to register allocator to cause less spills
* 8-bit registers now interfere with esi,edi and ebp
Compiler can now compile rtl successfully when using new register
allocator
+ getregisterint will return imaginary registers with $newra
+ -sr switch added, will skip register allocation so you can see
the direct output of the code generator before register allocation
+ first parameter offset in stack now portable
* rename some constants
+ move some cpu stuff to other units
- remove unused constents
* fix stacksize for some targets
* fix generic size problems which depend now on EXTEND_SIZE constant
* LOC_CONSTANT added for better constant handling
* secondadd splitted in multiple routines
* location_force_reg added for loading a location to a register
of a specified size
* secondassignment parses now first the right and then the left node
(this is compatible with Kylix). This saves a lot of push/pop especially
with string operations
* adapted some routines to use the new cg methods
* register allocation is now handled by a class and is mostly processor
independent (+rgobj.pas and i386/rgcpu.pas)
* temp allocation is now handled by a class (+tgobj.pas, -i386\tgcpu.pas)
* some small improvements and fixes to the optimizer
* some register allocation fixes
* some fpuvaroffset fixes in the unary minus node
* push/popusedregisters is now called rg.save/restoreusedregisters and
(for i386) uses temps instead of push/pop's when using -Op3 (that code is
also better optimizable)
* fixed and optimized register saving/restoring for new/dispose nodes
* LOC_FPU locations now also require their "register" field to be set to
R_ST, not R_ST0 (the latter is used for LOC_CFPUREGISTER locations only)
- list field removed of the tnode class because it's not used currently
and can cause hard-to-find bugs
