* Reworked register operands - all vector registers are now
platform::Vec deriving from UniVec (universal vector operand),
additionally, there is no platform::Reg, instead asmjit::Reg
provides all necessary features to make it a base register for
each target architecture
* Reworked casting between registers - now architecture agnostic
names are preferred - use Gp32 instead of Gpd or GpW, Gp64
instead of Gpq and GpX, etc...
* Reworked vector registers and their names - architecture
agnostic naming is now preferred Vec32, Vec64, Vec128, etc...
* Reworked naming conventions used across AsmJit - for clarity
Identifiers are now prefixed with the type, like sectionId(),
labelId(), etc...
* Reworked how Zone and ZoneAllocator are used across AsmJit,
prefering Zone in most cases and ZoneAllocator only for
containers - this change alone achieves around 5% better
performance of Builder and Compiler
* Reworked LabelEntry - decreased the size of the base entry
to 16 bytes for anonymous and unnamed labels. Avoided an
indirection when using labelEntries() - LabelEntry is now
a value and not a pointer
* Renamed LabelLink to Fixup
* Added a new header <asmjit/host.h> which would include
<asmjit/core.h> + target tools for the host architecture,
if enabled and supported
* Added new AArch64 instructions (BTI, CSSC, CHKFEAT)
* Added a mvn_ alternative of mvn instruction (fix for Windows
ARM64 SDK)
* Added more AArch64 CPU features to CpuInfo
* Added better support for Apple CPU detection (Apple M3, M4)
* Added a new benchmarking tool asmjit_bench_overhead, which
benchmarks the overhead of CodeHolder::init()/reset() and
creating/attaching emitters to it. Thanks to the benchmark the
most common code-paths were optimized
* Added a new benchmarking tool asmjit_bench_regalloc, which
aims to benchmark the cost and complexity of register allocation.
* Renamed asmjit_test_perf to asmjit_bench_codegen to make it
clear what is a test and what is a benchmark
* Renamed all eq() methods to equals() (consistency) (ABI)
* Reorganized some X86 instructions in X86 database
* Properly detect RISC-V CPU at compile time (Environment)
* Removed CallConvId::kNone in favor of defaulting to kCDecl (ABI)
* CallConvId::kHost is now alias to CallConvId::kCDecl (ABI)
* Added FloatABI to Environment to disginguish between softfloat
and hardfloat
* Added more AArch64 CPU features and their detection (ABI)
* Because of CallConvId changes it's now possible to run
compiler tests on 32-bit ARM (fixes a bug in test cases)
* Added QEMU to CI build matrix to test different architectures
This is unfortunately API/ABI break, which cannot be deprecated
instead of removed as arm::Vec would collide with a64::Vec if present.
This is a preparetion for ARM32 tooling.
This changeset contains an updated instruction database that brings
ARM32 instructions for the first time. It also updates instruction
database tooling especially for ARM64, which will also be used by
ARM32 generator.
Additionally, new operan has been added, which represents a register
list as used by ARM32 instruction set.
Other minor changes are related to ARM - some stuff had to be moved
to a64 namespace from arm namespace as it's incompatible between
32-bit and 64-bit ISA.
* Refactored workflows to use a single workflow for both VM and non-VM builds
* Compiler tests are now able to test compilation of different architectures
