* 4638 - extract some common libraries from appsKartik Agaram2018-10-011-0/+0
| | | | | | | I'm still trying to figure out what the defaults should be. At the moment you have to explicitly pass in every file you want loaded into the output binary. Maybe that control is a good thing. The examples need no libraries so far.

| | | | | | | More calling convention tweaks. Use EBP to get consistently at parameters and locals. Always put the first function argument closest to EBP.

| | | | Get the calling convention right, per http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~evans/cs216/guides/x86.html

| | | | Upgrade the test harness for the factorial "app" from ex11.

| | | | | | | | | | | | check_ints_equal now prints a newline after the failure message on failure. We still don't know how to print a final newline after all the tests have run, for the common case when all tests pass. Ideally I could just emit a few instructions to `run_tests`. But I'd also need to add a variable for the newline to the data segment. Or I need some literal syntax for newlines in strings. We don't have support for backslash-escapes yet.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Extract a helper from the factorial unit test: check_ints_equal. Start of a vocabulary for unit tests. I *could* also start thinking of supporting multi-file programs, but I'm going to resist the temptation for now. Copy helpers as necessary, and allow them to mutate and diverge for a while before we pummel them into a Procrustean "standard library". Extracting a body of shared code immediately starts to discourage innovation in the shared code.
* 4586 - factorial checks commandline to run testsKartik Agaram2018-09-211-0/+0
| | | | | No automated tests for argv_equal because we need it to run automated tests. But maybe we should have them anyway.
* 4567 - support automated tests in SubXKartik Agaram2018-09-211-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | All it takes is to code-generate a simple function called 'run_tests' that calls all functions starting with 'test_' one by one. I've temporarily switched the factorial app to run as a test. But that's temporary, because all the code to print '.' vs 'F' needs to get extracted out into a helper.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Streamline the factorial function; we don't need to save a stack variable into a register before operating on it. All instructions can take a stack variable directly. In the process we found two bugs: a) Opcode f7 was not implemented correctly. It was internally consistent but I'd never validated it against a natively running program. Turns out it encodes multiple instructions, not just 'not'. b) The way we look up imm32 operands was sometimes reading them before disp8/disp32 operands.
