* switch to new syntax for segment headers in C++Kartik Agaram2019-05-1836-514/+481

* support the new segment syntax in assort.subxKartik Agaram2019-05-172-51/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | Now all implemented phases of the SubX translator in SubX support the new syntax: ✓ hex.subx (no changes required) survey.subx (not yet started) ✓ pack.subx (fixed here) ✓ assort.subx ✓ dquotes.subx (has failing tests for other reasons)
* another phase that supports the new segment syntaxKartik Agaram2019-05-172-18/+18

* start of new syntax for segment headersKartik Agaram2019-05-172-26/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now SubX defines headers with the following syntax: ``` === ... ``` The `...` can be either a numeric address or a name. Numeric addresses are useful for tests where we want to check addresses of individual instructions. Names are useful in real programs where we want to add to a segment in many places. This approach has long seemed a mess. It's hard to explain, and there's a certain amount of historical evolution that led to it that should be irrelevant to comprehend the current state of the codebase. I started out assuming the first segment was always code, before adding the special names 'code' and 'data'. We pretend to support more than two segments but we don't really. To simplify the code and explanation we'll move to a new syntax: ``` === <name> <address> ``` Code will always belong in the special name 'code', but it no longer has to be first. We need to migrate both our SubX-in-SubX phases and the C++ version. The plan is to start from the top down and update bootstrapping phases that've already been built (see commit 5102 for the list of phases). This commit updates pack.subx. Current state: ✓ hex.subx (no changes required) survey.subx ✓ pack.subx (fixed here) assort.subx dquotes.subx

| | | | | | | Clean up some old TODOs related to our pre-mmap limitations. Also caught another case of using the wrong comparison. When comparing addresses, one must always use unsigned rather than signed jump instructions.

* complete the skeleton of dquotes.subxKartik Agaram2019-05-1512-49/+210
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Still some failing tests: - emit-string-literal-data doesn't ignore metadata when computing the length of literal strings - emit-string-literal-data doesn't handle escape sequences One issue doesn't have a failing test: - emit-metadata doesn't handle string literals containing '/' All these open issues involve a common design question: how to parse a 'word' that includes a string literal that may include spaces. For everything else I know words can't contain spaces and datums can't contain slashes. But for string literals things are tougher.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | How did things seem to be working until now? - We were saving an address from the stack to stream.read - When we read this address in skip-chars-matching:loop, we used to stop early But now we've moved the stack to a larger address, one where the most significant byte is set. When the stack address now gets to skip-chars-matching:loop, it's treated as a negative number and we proceed through the loop. At which point we try to index into the array using it. No real test to be written to protect against this :(

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Standardize layout of some code fragments, and fix several bugs in computing the overflow flag in the process. a64 = b32 + c32 doesn't benefit from `a` being 64-bit without casting `b`.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tests failing. This approach seems wrong. I'm not sure even the tests are correct. Also, some open questions: 1. Should setting the overflow flag always set the carry flag? 2. Should the carry flag only be set on add/subtract/compare, or by all arithmetic ops? 3. Had to turn off the -ftrapv flag in `build`. Is there a way to detect overflow without actually causing overflow? Once we start setting CF correctly we have to implement jump above/below instructions (8- and 32-bit displacement variants). https://github.com/akkartik/mu/issues/30

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pretty blunt for now; just abort the entire program on any failure to write. I'm encountering it because I'm somehow treating a stream address as a file descriptor. Maybe mmap is returning addresses below 0x08000000?
