|    Convert pseudo register-based assembly t    |
|    12 Dec 07 15:24:05    |
      Hi all,              I'm currently working on a compiler. I use graph coloring to allocate       registers. The compiler targets different platforms, one of them being       the x86. I currently generate code to bypass the fpu stack problem,       every operation being prefixed by a load and postfixed by a store.       The generated code is currently working.              Now I want to optimize that code by using the fpu stack. I've thought       of using the register allocation with pseudo fpu instructions and       pseudo fpu registers. After the register allocation, I would convert       pseudo-instruction into real fpu stack, allocating stack slot to       register. LLVM is using such a technique to allocate stack slot. But I       can't find any information on this process. Does anybody have       experience on this or have information about it?              Thanks              Julien Hamaide              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
