<p>This document is another way to learn about LLVM. Unlike the
|
||||
<a href="LangRef.html">LLVM Reference Manual</a> or
|
||||
<a href="ProgrammersManual.html">LLVM Programmer's Manual</a>, this
|
||||
document walks you through the implementation of a programming language
|
||||
named Stacker. Stacker was invented specifically as a demonstration of
|
||||
LLVM. The emphasis in this document is not on describing the
|
||||
intricacies of LLVM itself, but on how to use it to build your own
|
||||
compiler system.</p>

<div class="doc_text">
|
||||
<p>Amongst other things, LLVM is a platform for compiler writers.
|
||||
Because of its exceptionally clean and small IR (intermediate
|
||||
representation), compiler writing with LLVM is much easier than with
|
||||
other system. As proof, the author of Stacker wrote the entire
|
||||
compiler (language definition, lexer, parser, code generator, etc.) in
|
||||
about <em>four days</em>! That's important to know because it shows
|
||||
how quickly you can get a new
|
||||
language up when using LLVM. Furthermore, this was the <em >first</em>
|
||||
language the author ever created using LLVM. The learning curve is
|
||||
included in that four days.</p>
|
||||
<p>The language described here, Stacker, is Forth-like. Programs
|
||||
are simple collections of word definitions and the only thing definitions
|
||||
can do is manipulate a stack or generate I/O. Stacker is not a "real"
|
||||
programming language; its very simple. Although it is computationally
|
||||
complete, you wouldn't use it for your next big project. However,
|
||||
the fact that it is complete, its simple, and it <em>doesn't</em> have
|
||||
a C-like syntax make it useful for demonstration purposes. It shows
|
||||
that LLVM could be applied to a wide variety of language syntaxes.</p>
|
||||
<p>The basic notions behind stacker is very simple. There's a stack of
|
||||
integers (or character pointers) that the program manipulates. Pretty
|
||||
much the only thing the program can do is manipulate the stack and do
|
||||
some limited I/O operations. The language provides you with several
|
||||
built-in words that manipulate the stack in interesting ways. To get
|
||||
your feet wet, here's how you write the traditional "Hello, World"
|
||||
program in Stacker:</p>
|
||||
<p><code>: hello_world "Hello, World!" >s DROP CR ;<br>
|
||||
: MAIN hello_world ;<br></code></p>
|
||||
<p>This has two "definitions" (Stacker manipulates words, not
|
||||
functions and words have definitions): <code>MAIN</code> and <code>
|
||||
hello_world</code>. The <code>MAIN</code> definition is standard, it
|
||||
tells Stacker where to start. Here, <code>MAIN</code> is defined to
|
||||
simply invoke the word <code>hello_world</code>. The
|
||||
<code>hello_world</code> definition tells stacker to push the
|
||||
<code>"Hello, World!"</code> string onto the stack, print it out
|
||||
(<code>>s</code>), pop it off the stack (<code>DROP</code>), and
|
||||
finally print a carriage return (<code>CR</code>). Although
|
||||
<code>hello_world</code> uses the stack, its net effect is null. Well
|
||||
written Stacker definitions have that characteristic. </p>
|
||||
<p>Exercise for the reader: how could you make this a one line program?</p>

|

<p>Stacker was written for two purposes: (a) to get the author over the
|
||||
learning curve and (b) to provide a simple example of how to write a compiler
|
||||
using LLVM. During the development of Stacker, many lessons about LLVM were
|
||||
learned. Those lessons are described in the following subsections.<p>

<div class="doc_subsection"><a name="stack"></a>The Stack</div>
|
||||
<div class="doc_text">
|
||||
<p>Stacker definitions define what they do to the global stack. Before
|
||||
proceeding, a few words about the stack are in order. The stack is simply
|
||||
a global array of 32-bit integers or pointers. A global index keeps track
|
||||
of the location of the to of the stack. All of this is hidden from the
|
||||
programmer but it needs to be noted because it is the foundation of the
|
||||
conceptual programming model for Stacker. When you write a definition,
|
||||
you are, essentially, saying how you want that definition to manipulate
|
||||
the global stack.</p>
|
||||
<p>Manipulating the stack can be quite hazardous. There is no distinction
|
||||
given and no checking for the various types of values that can be placed
|
||||
on the stack. Automatic coercion between types is performed. In many
|
||||
cases this is useful. For example, a boolean value placed on the stack
|
||||
can be interpreted as an integer with good results. However, using a
|
||||
word that interprets that boolean value as a pointer to a string to
|
||||
print out will almost always yield a crash. Stacker simply leaves it
|
||||
to the programmer to get it right without any interference or hindering
|
||||
on interpretation of the stack values. You've been warned :) </p>

<div class="doc_subsection"> <a name="punctuation"></a>Punctuation</div>
|
||||
<div class="doc_text">
|
||||
<p>Punctuation in Stacker is very simple. The colon and semi-colon
|
||||
characters are used to introduce and terminate a definition
|
||||
(respectively). Except for <em>FORWARD</em> declarations, definitions
|
||||
are all you can specify in Stacker. Definitions are read left to right.
|
||||
Immediately after the semi-colon comes the name of the word being defined.
|
||||
The remaining words in the definition specify what the word does.</p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<!-- ======================================================================= -->
|
||||
<div class="doc_subsection"><a name="literals"></a>Literals</div>
|
||||
<div class="doc_text">
|
||||
<p>There are three kinds of literal values in Stacker. Integer, Strings,
|
||||
and Booleans. In each case, the stack operation is to simply push the
|
||||
value onto the stack. So, for example:<br/>
|
||||
<code> 42 " is the answer." TRUE </code><br/>
|
||||
will push three values onto the stack: the integer 42, the
|
||||
string " is the answer." and the boolean TRUE.</p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<!-- ======================================================================= -->
|
||||
<div class="doc_subsection"><a name="words"></a>Words</div>
|
||||
<div class="doc_text">
|
||||
<p>Each definition in Stacker is composed of a set of words. Words are
|
||||
read and executed in order from left to right. There is very little
|
||||
checking in Stacker to make sure you're doing the right thing with
|
||||
the stack. It is assumed that the programmer knows how the stack
|
||||
transformation he applies will affect the program.</p>
|
||||
<p>Words in a definition come in two flavors: built-in and programmer
|
||||
defined. Simply mentioning the name of a previously defined or declared
|
||||
programmer-defined word causes that words definition to be invoked. It
|
||||
is somewhat like a function call in other languages. The built-in
|
||||
words have various effects, described below.</p>
|
||||
<p>Sometimes you need to call a word before it is defined. For this, you can
|
||||
use the <code>FORWARD</code> declaration. It looks like this</p>
|
||||
<p><code>FORWARD name ;</code></p>
|
||||
<p>This simply states to Stacker that "name" is the name of a definition
|
||||
that is defined elsewhere. Generally it means the definition can be found
|
||||
"forward" in the file. But, it doesn't have to be in the current compilation
|
||||
unit. Anything declared with <code>FORWARD</code> is an external symbol for
|
||||
linking.</p>
|
||||

<!-- ======================================================================= -->
|
||||
<div class="doc_subsection"><a name="builtins"></a>Built In Words</div>
|
||||
<div class="doc_text">
|
||||
<p>The built-in words of the Stacker language are put in several groups
|
||||
depending on what they do. The groups are as follows:</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li><em>Logical</em>These words provide the logical operations for
|
||||
comparing stack operands.<br/>The words are: < > <= >=
|
||||
= <> true false.</li>
|
||||
<li><em>Bitwise</em>These words perform bitwise computations on
|
||||
their operands. <br/> The words are: << >> XOR AND NOT</li>
|
||||
<li><em>Arithmetic</em>These words perform arithmetic computations on
|
||||
their operands. <br/> The words are: ABS NEG + - * / MOD */ ++ -- MIN MAX</li>
|
||||
<li><em>Stack</em>These words manipulate the stack directly by moving
|
||||
its elements around.<br/> The words are: DROP DUP SWAP OVER ROT DUP2 DROP2 PICK TUCK</li>
|
||||
<li><em>Memory></em>These words allocate, free and manipulate memory
|
||||
areas outside the stack.<br/>The words are: MALLOC FREE GET PUT</li>
|
||||
<li><em>Control</em>These words alter the normal left to right flow
|
||||
of execution.<br/>The words are: IF ELSE ENDIF WHILE END RETURN EXIT RECURSE</li>
|
||||
<li><em>I/O</em> These words perform output on the standard output
|
||||
and input on the standard input. No other I/O is possible in Stacker.
|
||||
<br/>The words are: SPACE TAB CR >s >d >c <s <d <c.</li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>While you may be familiar with many of these operations from other
|
||||
programming languages, a careful review of their semantics is important
|
||||
for correct programming in Stacker. Of most importance is the effect
|
||||
that each of these built-in words has on the global stack. The effect is
|
||||
not always intuitive. To better describe the effects, we'll borrow from Forth the idiom of
|
||||
describing the effect on the stack with:</p>
|
||||
<p><code> BEFORE -- AFTER </code></p>
|
||||
<p>That is, to the left of the -- is a representation of the stack before
|
||||
the operation. To the right of the -- is a representation of the stack
|
||||
after the operation. In the table below that describes the operation of
|
||||
each of the built in words, we will denote the elements of the stack
|
||||
using the following construction:</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li><em>b</em> - a boolean truth value</li>
|
||||
<li><em>w</em> - a normal integer valued word.</li>
|
||||
<li><em>s</em> - a pointer to a string value</li>
|
||||
<li><em>p</em> - a pointer to a malloc's memory block</li>
