## Mu's instructions and their table-driven translation

Mu is a statement-oriented language. Blocks consist of flat lists of instructions.
The following chart shows all the instruction forms supported by Mu, along
with the instruction they're translated to. Variables of the form "var/reg"
live in a register, and other variables are assumed to live on the stack at
some 'stack-offset' from ebp.

In the following instructions types are provided for clarity even if they must
be provided in an earlier 'var' declaration.

Address operations

var/reg: (addr T) <- address var: T
  => "8d/copy-address *(ebp+" var.stack-offset ") " reg "/r32"

Array operations (TODO: bounds-checking)

var/reg <- length arr/reg2: (addr array T)
  => "8b/-> *" reg2 " " reg "/r32"
var/reg <- index arr/rega: (addr array T), idx/regi: int  # if size(T) is 4 or 8

var/reg <- index arr/rega: (addr array T), n

var/reg <- index arr: (array T sz), n

var/reg: (offset T) <- compute-offset arr: (addr array T), idx/regi: int  # arr can be in reg or mem

var/reg <- index arr/rega: (addr array T), o/rego: offset
  => "8d/copy-address *(" rega "+" rego "+4) " reg "/r32"

User-defined types

If a record (product) type T was defined to have elements a, b, c, ... of
types T_a, T_b, T_c, ..., then accessing one of those elements f of type T_f:

var/reg: (addr T_f) <- get var2/reg2: (addr F), f
  => "8d/copy-address *(" reg2 "+" offset(f) ") " reg "/r32"
var/reg: (addr T_f) <- get var2: (addr F), f
  => "8d/copy-address *(ebp+" var2.stack-offset "+" offset(f) ") " reg "/r32"
