21 /// DisassemblerEmitter - Contains disassembler table emitters for various
24 /// X86 Disassembler Emitter
26 /// *** IF YOU'RE HERE TO RESOLVE A "Primary decode conflict", LOOK DOWN NEAR
27 /// THE END OF THIS COMMENT!
29 /// The X86 disassembler emitter is part of the X86 Disassembler, which is
30 /// documented in lib/Target/X86/X86Disassembler.h.
32 /// The emitter produces the tables that the disassembler uses to translate
33 /// instructions. The emitter generates the following tables:
35 /// - One table (CONTEXTS_SYM) that contains a mapping of attribute masks to
36 /// instruction contexts. Although for each attribute there are cases where
37 /// that attribute determines decoding, in the majority of cases decoding is
38 /// the same whether or not an attribute is present. For example, a 64-bit
39 /// instruction with an OPSIZE prefix and an XS prefix decodes the same way in
40 /// all cases as a 64-bit instruction with only OPSIZE set. (The XS prefix
41 /// may have effects on its execution, but does not change the instruction
42 /// returned.) This allows considerable space savings in other tables.
43 /// - Six tables (ONEBYTE_SYM, TWOBYTE_SYM, THREEBYTE38_SYM, THREEBYTE3A_SYM,
44 /// THREEBYTEA6_SYM, and THREEBYTEA7_SYM contain the hierarchy that the
45 /// decoder traverses while decoding an instruction. At the lowest level of
46 /// this hierarchy are instruction UIDs, 16-bit integers that can be used to
47 /// uniquely identify the instruction and correspond exactly to its position
48 /// in the list of CodeGenInstructions for the target.
49 /// - One table (INSTRUCTIONS_SYM) contains information about the operands of
50 /// each instruction and how to decode them.
52 /// During table generation, there may be conflicts between instructions that
53 /// occupy the same space in the decode tables. These conflicts are resolved as
54 /// follows in setTableFields() (X86DisassemblerTables.cpp)
56 /// - If the current context is the native context for one of the instructions
57 /// (that is, the attributes specified for it in the LLVM tables specify
58 /// precisely the current context), then it has priority.
59 /// - If the current context isn't native for either of the instructions, then
60 /// the higher-priority context wins (that is, the one that is more specific).
61 /// That hierarchy is determined by outranks() (X86DisassemblerTables.cpp)
62 /// - If the current context is native for both instructions, then the table
63 /// emitter reports a conflict and dies.
65 /// *** RESOLUTION FOR "Primary decode conflict"S
67 /// If two instructions collide, typically the solution is (in order of
70 /// (1) to filter out one of the instructions by editing filter()
71 /// (X86RecognizableInstr.cpp). This is the most common resolution, but
72 /// check the Intel manuals first to make sure that (2) and (3) are not the
74 /// (2) to fix the tables (X86.td and its subsidiaries) so the opcodes are
75 /// accurate. Sometimes they are not.
76 /// (3) to fix the tables to reflect the actual context (for example, required
77 /// prefixes), and possibly to add a new context by editing
78 /// lib/Target/X86/X86DisassemblerDecoderCommon.h. This is unlikely to be
81 /// DisassemblerEmitter.cpp contains the implementation for the emitter,
82 /// which simply pulls out instructions from the CodeGenTarget and pushes them
83 /// into X86DisassemblerTables.
84 /// X86DisassemblerTables.h contains the interface for the instruction tables,
85 /// which manage and emit the structures discussed above.
86 /// X86DisassemblerTables.cpp contains the implementation for the instruction
88 /// X86ModRMFilters.h contains filters that can be used to determine which
89 /// ModR/M values are valid for a particular instruction. These are used to
90 /// populate ModRMDecisions.
91 /// X86RecognizableInstr.h contains the interface for a single instruction,
92 /// which knows how to translate itself from a CodeGenInstruction and provide
93 /// the information necessary for integration into the tables.
