LLVM backend for 6502
0fa193b086
The ldr-pseudo opcode is a convenience for loading 32-bit constants.
It is converted into a pc-relative load from a constant pool. For
example,
ldr r0, =0x10001
ldr r1, =bar
will generate this output in the final assembly
ldr r0, .Ltmp0
ldr r1, .Ltmp1
...
.Ltmp0: .long 0x10001
.Ltmp1: .long bar
Sketch of the LDR pseudo implementation:
Keep a map from Section => ConstantPool
When parsing ldr r0, =val
parse val as an MCExpr
get ConstantPool for current Section
Label = CreateTempSymbol()
remember val in ConstantPool at next free slot
add operand to ldr that is MCSymbolRef of Label
On finishParse() callback
Write out all non-empty constant pools
for each Entry in ConstantPool
Emit Entry.Label
Emit Entry.Value
Possible improvements to be added in a later patch:
1. Does not convert load of small constants to mov
(e.g. ldr r0, =0x1 => mov r0, 0x1)
2. Does reuse constant pool entries for same constant
The implementation was tested for ARM, Thumb1, and Thumb2 targets on
linux and darwin.
