As far as I can tell, there should be no more regressions, but that's
no guarantee of anything. Assuming no more are found, this should go
out as version 2.0.0. :-D
There's still a ways to go before this will work properly as we need to
add proper fixup handling and origin (".org") bookkeeping. As it is now,
the addition of all the miscellaneous bits and bobs to support the main
56K assembler are in place but they don't cause any regressions to the
existing assemblers already present in RMAC. Stay tuned for Round 2!
RMAC has needed a struct for fixups for some time, and now it has one.
All of the credit for pushing (and patching!) in that direction goes to
ggn; blame for the way it's implemented goes to me. There's still room
for improvement; but for now, this should leave us in much better shape.
Now at v1.12.0.
- New command line switch -m[cpu] enables you to switch to a different cpu from the command line
- BYTESWAP64 macro fix
- New optimisation flags o6 and o7 turn null branches to NOP and convert clr.l Dx to moveq #0,Dx
- Remove tons of FPU/PMMU codegen functions in mech.c. They are now handled in a more smart way. Condition codes now stored in 68ktab - updated 68ktab to reflect that
The last commit had gone a bit overboard with the 32 vs 64 bit token
changes; this has been rectified. There's still a ways to go with the
floating point code, but this should be stable for now. Version now at
1.10.1.
The float changes will need some going over to ensure that we don't end
up with what we had when pointers were shoved into the token stream
willy-nilly.
Version bump to 1.9.0. Right now the only thing that supports it is
dc.d; now that the infrastructure supports it, anything else that needs
64-bit support (such as FPUs and the like) can be done very easily now.
- Source fixed to work with current rmac implementation
- Removed ultra kludgy output mode and replaced it with .com/.exe./.xex output module (activated using -fx)
- Added #< and #> to give low and high bytes off an immediate word
- Included tester in "tests" folder.
- Updated docs.
ggn deserves most of the credit for this, as my job was going through
and tossing out the stuff that wasn't needed. ;-) There might be some
ELFish things that still need fixing; time, as usual, will tell.
This stemmed from the fact that EQUR symbols somehow made it on to the
symbol declaration list. If such symbol was later .equrundef'd, it would
find it's way back onto the the sdecl list *twice*, with the result
that any symbols that came after it would be summarily discarded into
the ether. Really, really bad mojo.
For some reason, there was code in several places that marked fixups/symbols
as belonging to a RISC section when it was clearly not the case. As a result,
it caused serious problems by reversing words in 68K sections just because a
symbol had been seen in a MOVEI # statement in a RISC section. Probably not
the last nasty surprise in this pile of spaghetti. :-/
