23 /// X86 Disassembler Emitter
25 /// *** IF YOU'RE HERE TO RESOLVE A "Primary decode conflict", LOOK DOWN NEAR
26 /// THE END OF THIS COMMENT!
28 /// The X86 disassembler emitter is part of the X86 Disassembler, which is
29 /// documented in lib/Target/X86/X86Disassembler.h.
31 /// The emitter produces the tables that the disassembler uses to translate
32 /// instructions. The emitter generates the following tables:
34 /// - One table (CONTEXTS_SYM) that contains a mapping of attribute masks to
35 /// instruction contexts. Although for each attribute there are cases where
36 /// that attribute determines decoding, in the majority of cases decoding is
37 /// the same whether or not an attribute is present. For example, a 64-bit
38 /// instruction with an OPSIZE prefix and an XS prefix decodes the same way in
39 /// all cases as a 64-bit instruction with only OPSIZE set. (The XS prefix
40 /// may have effects on its execution, but does not change the instruction
41 /// returned.) This allows considerable space savings in other tables.
42 /// - Six tables (ONEBYTE_SYM, TWOBYTE_SYM, THREEBYTE38_SYM, THREEBYTE3A_SYM,
43 /// THREEBYTEA6_SYM, and THREEBYTEA7_SYM contain the hierarchy that the
44 /// decoder traverses while decoding an instruction. At the lowest level of
45 /// this hierarchy are instruction UIDs, 16-bit integers that can be used to
46 /// uniquely identify the instruction and correspond exactly to its position
47 /// in the list of CodeGenInstructions for the target.
48 /// - One table (INSTRUCTIONS_SYM) contains information about the operands of
49 /// each instruction and how to decode them.
51 /// During table generation, there may be conflicts between instructions that
52 /// occupy the same space in the decode tables. These conflicts are resolved as
53 /// follows in setTableFields() (X86DisassemblerTables.cpp)
55 /// - If the current context is the native context for one of the instructions
56 /// (that is, the attributes specified for it in the LLVM tables specify
57 /// precisely the current context), then it has priority.
58 /// - If the current context isn't native for either of the instructions, then
59 /// the higher-priority context wins (that is, the one that is more specific).
60 /// That hierarchy is determined by outranks() (X86DisassemblerTables.cpp)
61 /// - If the current context is native for both instructions, then the table
62 /// emitter reports a conflict and dies.
64 /// *** RESOLUTION FOR "Primary decode conflict"S
66 /// If two instructions collide, typically the solution is (in order of
69 /// (1) to filter out one of the instructions by editing filter()
70 /// (X86RecognizableInstr.cpp). This is the most common resolution, but
71 /// check the Intel manuals first to make sure that (2) and (3) are not the
73 /// (2) to fix the tables (X86.td and its subsidiaries) so the opcodes are
74 /// accurate. Sometimes they are not.
75 /// (3) to fix the tables to reflect the actual context (for example, required
76 /// prefixes), and possibly to add a new context by editing
77 /// include/llvm/Support/X86DisassemblerDecoderCommon.h. This is unlikely
80 /// DisassemblerEmitter.cpp contains the implementation for the emitter,
81 /// which simply pulls out instructions from the CodeGenTarget and pushes them
82 /// into X86DisassemblerTables.
83 /// X86DisassemblerTables.h contains the interface for the instruction tables,
84 /// which manage and emit the structures discussed above.
85 /// X86DisassemblerTables.cpp contains the implementation for the instruction
87 /// X86ModRMFilters.h contains filters that can be used to determine which
88 /// ModR/M values are valid for a particular instruction. These are used to
89 /// populate ModRMDecisions.
90 /// X86RecognizableInstr.h contains the interface for a single instruction,
91 /// which knows how to translate itself from a CodeGenInstruction and provide
92 /// the information necessary for integration into the tables.
