rucc_target/
regs.rs

1//! The register file: what registers a target has, and what classes they fall into.
2//!
3//! Design: `spec/10-backend.md` section 10.8.
4//!
5//! A register file is data rather than code, which is the same claim the rest of this crate
6//! makes and the one `M10` puts a number on. A class is a set of registers that an operand of
7//! that class may be assigned to, and a physical register is its number inside its class, so
8//! the allocator works in dense small integers and only the printer and the parser ever deal in
9//! names.
10//!
11//! The file lives here rather than in `rucc-mir` because more than one thing reads it. The
12//! machine IR needs it to print, the allocator needs the set it may assign from, and the ABI
13//! description needs to name the registers arguments arrive in. All three are above this crate,
14//! and the alternative is the register file living in whichever of them happens to be lowest,
15//! which is how a layering ends up describing itself as historical.
16//!
17//! Names are unique across the whole file, not merely inside a class. That is what lets a
18//! register be written `$rax` in a dump rather than `$gpr.0`, and it is a real constraint on a
19//! target that gives one register two classes: it has to say which class it is in, or use two
20//! names. [`RegFile::duplicate`] is what a target's own test asks to find out.

263/// committed, and one page below what is committed is a guard page whose whole job is to be touched:
264/// the fault it raises is what tells the kernel to commit another page and move the guard down. So a
265/// frame larger than a page has to be reached a page at a time or the guard is stepped over, and the

269///
270/// Every Windows toolchain calls a routine for it rather than writing the walk out, and the routine
271/// is in the C runtime, so the name is the platform's. It reads the size in one register, touches
272/// each page down to there, and comes back having moved nothing, which is why the caller still has
273/// to take the frame afterwards.

275/// A convention that answers `None` is one where reaching the pages is not the convention's
