21 /* Instruction decode table:
22
23 <options>:<first>:<last>:<force-first>:<force-last>:<force-expand>:<special>...
24
25
26
27 Ignore the below:
28
29
30 The instruction decode table contains rules that dictate how igen
31 is going to firstly break down the opcode table and secondly
32
33 The table that follows is used by gen to construct a decision tree
34 that can identify each possible instruction. Gen then outputs this
35 decision tree as (according to config) a table or switch statement
36 as the function idecode.
37
38 In parallel to this, as mentioned above, WITH_EXPANDED_SEMANTICS
39 determines of the semantic functions themselves should be expanded
40 in a similar way.
41
42 <first>
43 <last>
44
45 Range of bits (within the instruction) that should be searched for
46 an instruction field. Within such ranges, gen looks for opcodes
47 (constants), registers (strings) and reserved bits (slash) and
48 according to the rules that follows includes or excludes them from
49 a possible instruction field.
50
51 <force_first>
52 <force_last>
53
54 If an instruction field was found, enlarge the field size so that
55 it is forced to at least include bits starting from <force_first>
56 (<force_last>). To stop this occuring, use <force_first> = <last>
57 + 1 and <force_last> = <first> - 1.
58
59 <force_slash>
60
61 Treat `/' fields as a constant instead of variable when looking for
62 an instruction field.
63
64 <force_expansion>
65
66 Treat any contained register (string) fields as constant when
67 determining the instruction field. For the instruction decode (and
68 controled by IDECODE_EXPAND_SEMANTICS) this forces the expansion of
69 what would otherwize be non constant bits of an instruction.
70
71 <use_switch>
72
73 Should this table be expanded using a switch statement (val 1) and
74 if so, should it be padded with entries so as to force the compiler
75 to generate a jump table (val 2). Or a branch table (val 3).
76
77 <special_mask>
78 <special_value>
79 <special_rule>
80 <special_constant>
81
82 Special rule to fine tune how specific (or groups) of instructions
83 are expanded. The applicability of the rule is determined by
84
85 <special_mask> != 0 && (instruction> & <special_mask>) == <special_value>
86
87 Where <instruction> is obtained by looking only at constant fields
88 with in an instructions spec. When determining an expansion, the
89 rule is only considered when a node contains a single instruction.
90 <special_rule> can be any of:
91
92 0: for this instruction, expand by earlier rules
93 1: expand bits <force_low> .. <force_hi> only
94 2: boolean expansion of only zero/non-zero cases
95 3: boolean expansion of equality of special constant
