<span class="muComment">## Mu's instructions and their table-driven translation</span>
See <a href="http://akkartik.name/akkartik-convivial-20200607.pdf">http://akkartik.name/akkartik-convivial-20200607.pdf</a> for the complete
story. In brief: Mu is a statement-oriented language. Blocks consist of flat
lists of instructions. Instructions can have inputs after the operation, and
outputs to the left of a '<span class="Special"><-</span>'. Inputs and outputs must be variables. They can't
include nested expressions. Variables can be literals ('n'), or live in a
register ('var/reg') or in memory ('var') at some 'stack-offset' from the 'ebp'
register. Outputs must be registers. To modify a variable in memory, pass it in
by reference as an input. (Inputs are more precisely called 'inouts'.)
Conversely, registers that are just read from must not be passed as outputs.
The following chart shows all the instruction forms supported by Mu, along with
the SubX instruction they're translated to.

These instructions use the general-purpose registers.

Remember, when these instructions use indirect mode, they still use an integer
register. Floating-point registers can't hold addresses.
Most instructions operate exclusively on integer or floating-point operands.
The only exceptions are the instructions for converting between integers and
floating-point numbers.
var/xreg <span class="Special"><-</span> convert var2/reg2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 2a/convert-to-float %"</span> reg2 <span class="Constant">" "</span> xreg <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>

Converting floats to ints performs rounding by default. (We don't mess with the
MXCSR control register.)
var/reg <span class="Special"><-</span> convert var2/xreg2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 2d/convert-to-int %"</span> xreg2 <span class="Constant">" "</span> reg <span class="Constant">"/r32"</span>
var/reg <span class="Special"><-</span> convert var2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 2d/convert-to-int *(ebp+"</span> var2.stack-offset <span class="Constant">") "</span> reg <span class="Constant">"/r32"</span>

There's a separate instruction for truncating the fractional part.
var/reg <span class="Special"><-</span> truncate var2/xreg2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 2c/truncate-to-int %"</span> xreg2 <span class="Constant">" "</span> reg <span class="Constant">"/r32"</span>
var/reg <span class="Special"><-</span> truncate var2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 2c/truncate-to-int *(ebp+"</span> var2.stack-offset <span class="Constant">") "</span> reg <span class="Constant">"/r32"</span>

There are no instructions accepting floating-point literals. To obtain integer
literals in floating-point registers, copy them to general-purpose registers
and then convert them to floating-point.
One pattern you may have noticed above is that the floating-point instructions
above always write to registers. The only exceptions are `copy` instructions,
which can write to memory locations.
var/xreg <span class="Special"><-</span> copy var2/xreg2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 11/<- %"</span> xreg <span class="Constant">" "</span> xreg2 <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>
copy-to var1, var2/xreg => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 11/<- *(ebp+"</span> var1.stack-offset <span class="Constant">") "</span> xreg <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>
var/xreg <span class="Special"><-</span> copy var2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 10/-> *(ebp+"</span> var2.stack-offset <span class="Constant">") "</span> xreg <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>
var/xreg <span class="Special"><-</span> copy *var2/reg2 => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 10/-> *"</span> reg2 <span class="Constant">" "</span> xreg <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>
Comparisons must always start with a register:
compare var1/xreg1, var2/xreg2 => <span class="Constant">"0f 2f/compare %"</span> xreg2 <span class="Constant">" "</span> xreg1 <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>
compare var1/xreg1, var2 => <span class="Constant">"0f 2f/compare *(ebp+"</span> var2.stack-offset <span class="Constant">") "</span> xreg1 <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>
<span class="muComment">## Blocks</span>
In themselves, blocks generate no instructions. However, if a block contains
variable declarations, they must be cleaned up when the block ends.
Clean up var on the stack => <span class="Constant">"81 0/subop/add %esp "</span> size-of(var) <span class="Constant">"/imm32"</span>
Clean up var/reg => <span class="Constant">"8f 0/subop/pop %"</span> reg
Clean up var/xreg => <span class="Constant">"f3 0f 10/-> *esp "</span> xreg <span class="Constant">"/x32"</span>
<span class="Constant">"81 0/subop/add %esp 4/imm32"</span>
<span class="muComment">## Jumps</span>

themselves and their target, jumps translate like this:
<span class="PreProc">break</span> => <span class="Constant">"e9/jump break/disp32"</span>

Similar float variants like `<span class="PreProc">break-if-float<`</span> are aliases for the corresponding
`addr` equivalents. The x86 instruction set stupidly has floating-point
operations only update a subset of flags.
<span class="muComment">## Returns</span>
The `<span class="PreProc">return</span>` instruction cleans up variable declarations just like an unconditional
`<span class="PreProc">jump</span>` to end of function, but also emits a series of copies before the final
`<span class="PreProc">jump</span>`, copying each argument of `<span class="PreProc">return</span>` to the register appropriate to the
respective function output. This doesn't work if a function output register
contains a later `<span class="PreProc">return</span>` argument (e.g. if the registers for two outputs are
swapped in `<span class="PreProc">return</span>`), so you can't do that.
<span class="PreProc">return</span> => <span class="Constant">"c3/return"</span>
