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

Mu is a statement-oriented language. Blocks consist of flat lists of instructions.
The chart at the bottom of this page shows all the instruction forms supported
by Mu, one to a line. Each line shows an example of the instruction on the
left. Past the first column, everything inside the {..} is a summary of the
data structure the Mu compiler uses (`Primitives` in apps/mu.subx) to translate
it.

The syntax of the data structure is intended to be similar to C++'s aggregate
initializers (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/aggregate_initialization)
However, there are differences:
  - We use adjacency for string concatenation.
  - We use [] for array literals.
  - The objects inside [] are not fully described. They include various
    metadata about the variable in the instruction. For our purposes, assume
    that variables on the stack have a stack offset computed for them, and
    register variables evaluate to their register.
  - registers may be specified by name: /eax /ecx /edx /ebx /esi /edi
  - registers may be specified as a wildcard: /reg
  - integer literals are always called 'n'
  - any other variable names that don't specify a register are assumed to be on the stack

There are no checks for types yet, because Mu programs only have `int` types so far.

Example 1 (use the widest screen you can for this page):
   -- instruction form --   |         -------------------------- data structure ----------------------------
                            |<------------- pattern matching ---------->|<--- code generation ------------------->
  var/reg <- add var2/reg   {.name="add", .inouts=[reg], .outputs=[reg], .subx-name="01/add<-", .rm32=outputs[0], .r32=inouts[0]}

Read this as:
  if an instruction's name is "add"
    and it has one inout that's in a register
    and it has one output that's in a register,
  then emit the following on a single line
    "01/add<-" (the opcode or subx-name)
    "%{reg}", interpolating the output's register
    "{reg}/r32", interpolating the inout's register code.

Example 2:
   -- instruction form --   |         -------------------------- data structure ----------------------------
                            |<------- pattern matching ------>|<--- code generation ------------------->
  add-to var, n             {.name="add-to", .inouts=[var, n], .subx-name="81 0/subop/add", .rm32="*(ebp+" inouts[0].stack-offset ")", .imm32=inouts[1]}

Read this as:
  if an instruction's name is "add-to"
    and it has two inouts
    the first on the stack
    and the second a literal,
  then emit the following on a single line
    "81 0/subop/add" (the opcode or subx-name)
    "*(ebp+{stack})", interpolating the first inout's stack offset
    "{n}/imm32", interpolating the second inout's contents

Ok, here's the complete chart.

 -- instruction form --     |         -------------------------- data structure ----------------------------

Jumps have a slightly simpler format. Most of the time they take no inouts or
outputs. Occasionally you give them a label for a containing block to jump to
the start or end of. (Conditional branches read different combinations of CPU
flags.)

We repeat all the 'break' variants almost identically for 'loop' instructions.
This works because the compiler inserts ':loop' labels at the start of such
named blocks, and ':break' labels at the end.

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: field name => 8d/copy-addr *(reg2+offset(f))
                            {.name="get",             .inouts=[reg2, f],                .subx-name="8d/copy-address",       .rm32="*(" inouts[0] "+" offset(f) ")",     .r32=outputs[0]}
var/reg: (addr T_f) <- get var2: (addr F), f: field name
                            {.name="get",             .inouts=[reg2, f],                .subx-name="8d/copy-address",       .rm32="*(ebp+" inouts[0].stack-offset "+" offset(f) ")",  .r32=outputs[0]}
