so that they can still be freed after the reference has been changed
(e.g. in case of array indexing or record field accesses) (mantis #33628)
git-svn-id: trunk@38814 -
o separate information for reading and writing, because e.g. in a
try-block, only the writes to local variables and parameters are
volatile (they have to be committed immediately in case the next
instruction causes an exception)
o for now, only references to absolute memory addresses are marked
as volatile
o the volatily information is (should be) properly maintained throughout
all code generators for all archictures with this patch
o no optimizers or other compiler infrastructure uses the volatility
information yet
o this functionality is not (yet) exposed at the language level, it
is only for internal code generator use right now
git-svn-id: trunk@34996 -
it was AT_NONE, which is invalid and should never be used
* explicitly pass the correct value for all calls to those methods elsewhere
in the compiler
git-svn-id: trunk@34250 -
tasmdata.DefineAsmSymbol() and all routines that call it
o will be used to automatically generate AB_INDIRECT sybols when
necessary
git-svn-id: trunk@34164 -
names, and disabled them for ppc64 ELFv2
* disabling those also disables the function descriptors, so use the
_CALL_ELF compiler variable to check whether there is in fact a
function descriptor
git-svn-id: trunk@30196 -
that the type of the parameters can be determined automatically
o added compilerproc declarations for all helpers called in the compiler
via their assembler name, so we can look up the corresponding procdef
git-svn-id: trunk@23325 -
symbols on darwin/ppc and darwin/i386, and also for common symbols on
darwin/ppc, as they're not required for other kinds of symbols on those
platforms (gcc doesn't use them either with -O1 and higher; it does use
them always for darwin/ppc64 except for local symbols, and hence so do we)
git-svn-id: trunk@22271 -
getintparaloc + adapted all call sites of getintparaloc. This
led to a number of additional, related changes:
o corrected the type information for some getintparaloc parameters
o don't allocate some intparalocs in cases they aren't used
o changed "const tvardata" parameter into "constref tvardata" for
fpc_variant_copy_overwrite to make pass-by-reference semantics
explicit
o moved a number of routines that now have to call find_system_type()
from cgobj to hlcgobj so that cgobj doesn't have to start depending
on the symtable unit
o added versions of the cpureg alloc/dealloc methods to hlcgobj that
call through to their cgobj counter parts, so we can call save/restore
the cpu registers before/after calling system helpers from hlcgobj
(not implemented in hlcgobj itself, because all basic register
allocator functionality is still part of cgobj/cgcpu)
git-svn-id: trunk@21696 -
method is only used anymore internally in cgobj.tcg and its descendants
* made tcg.g_indirect_sym_load() protected to ensure it stays that way
git-svn-id: trunk@21392 -
future use by high level code generator targets
o this in turn required that all a_load*_loc* methods are called via
hlcg rather than via cg, since a location can be a subsetref/reg and
and those are no longer handled in tcg
o that then required moving several force_location_* routines into
thlcg because they use a_load_loc*, but did not take tdef size
parameters (which are required by the thlcg a_load_loc* routines)
o the only practical consequence is that from now on, you have to
use hlcg.location_force_mem/reg() (fpureg not yet) and
hlcg.gen_load_loc_cgpara() instead of the removed versions from ncgutil,
and hlcg.a_load*loc*() instead of cg.a_load*loc* if a subsetref/reg
might be involved
git-svn-id: trunk@21287 -
be generated for a single object file on AIX, automatically switch to
an indirection scheme that uses much less TOC entries, but is slower to
access global variables
* manually merged infrastructure for target-specific code generation
switches from JVM branch (-CTxxx switches)
* -CTsmalltoc switch for AIX that forces the indirection scheme for TOC
entries from the start in case the automatic one does not conserve
a sufficient amount (or in case you bump up against the global TOC
entries limit during linking)
git-svn-id: trunk@20963 -
to low addresses in case the target cpu/OS does not support this (enabled
for reads on AIX/PPC because on AIX the first 16KB are readable)
git-svn-id: trunk@20832 -
of the AVR-specific ifdef'ed variant
o since the only special character we use in mangled names on all platforms
is $, added a new field to tasminfo called "dollarsign" that holds the
character $'s should be replaced with (if it doesn't have to be replaced,
leave it at $)
git-svn-id: trunk@20801 -
* renamed some ppc64 stackframe offset constants to the same names as their
32 bit counterparts so they can be used in shared ppc code
git-svn-id: trunk@20794 -
* fixed code dealing with symbol+offsets on 64 bit platforms in
case of offsets > 32 bit (and to use smallint() typecasts
instead of lo(), since the return value of lo() depends on
the type passed in)
git-svn-id: trunk@20793 -
* $CPU/cgcpu.pas: disable the generation of VMT loading code
* dbgstabs.pas, dbgdwarf.pas: treat virtual methods of helpers as normal methods
* ncgcal.pas: don't register virtual helper methods for WPO
* ncgrtti.pas: write virtual helper methods as normal methods to RTTI
* nobj.pas: correctly handle final and override cases in helpers
* pdecvar.pas: property getters
* rautils.pas: no VMT offset in records
git-svn-id: branches/svenbarth/classhelpers@17150 -
- sort of reverted r14134, which is no longer required after the above
change (new_section() inserts the alignment itself)
* made the tai_section.create() constructor private so it cannot be
called directly anymore
git-svn-id: trunk@15482 -
represent complex locations (required for full x86-64 ABI support,
which is not yet implemented) -> lots of special result handling
code has been removed and replaced by the parameter handling
routines
+ added support for composite parameters (and hence function
results) to tcg.a_load_ref_cgpara() (so it can be used for
handling, e.g., 64 bit parameters on 32 bit platforms)
* the above fixed writing past the end of allocated memory when
handling records returned in registers on x86-64 whose size is
not a multiple of 8 bytes (mantis #16357)
- removed the x86-64 and PPC specific versions of a_load_ref_cgpara(),
as they are now handled correctly by the generic version
* moved the responsibility of allocating tcgpara cpu registers
(using paramanager.allocparaloc()) from the callers of
cg.a_load*_cgpara() to the cg.a_load*_cgpara() methods
themselves (so the register allocation can be done efficiently
when dealing with function results)
* for the above, renamed paramanager.alloc/freeparaloc() to
paramanager.alloc/freecgpara(), and use paramanager.allocparaloc()
to allocate individual pcgparalocations instead
* fixed the register size of SSE2 function result registers for
x86-64 (when used for floating point), which results in removing
a few superfluous "movs? %xmm0,%xmm0" instructions
* fixed compilation of paramanagers of avr, m68k and mips after r13695
and also updated them for these new changes
git-svn-id: trunk@15350 -
* the objc unit links against the Foundation instead of against the Cocoa
framework, and inludes an interface to either the fragile or non-fragile
obj-c run time depending on the target platform
+ support for the non-fragile Objective-C runtime/ABI, as used on Mac OS X
for ARM (iPhone) 64 bit (PowerPC/64, x86_64) -- all these targets now
are now also supported for the objectivec1 modeswitch
+ support for private_extern symbol bindings, required for the above
* mark objcclasses that are declared in the implementation section of a
unit as "hidden" (not sure what the effect is, since the Objective-C
runtime does not seem to do anything with this flag)
* enabled all obj-c tests for the newly supported platforms
git-svn-id: branches/objc@13763 -
alignment for each memory reference (mantis #12137, and
test/packages/fcl-registry/tregistry1.pp on sparc). This also
enables better code generation for packed records in many cases.
o several changes were made to the compiler to minimise the chances
of accidentally forgetting to set the alignment of memory references
in the future:
- reference_reset*() now has an extra alignment parameter
- location_reset() can now only be used for non LOC_(C)REFERENCE,
use location_reset_ref() for those (split the tloc enum so the
compiler can catch errors using range checking)
