-This directory contains a MIPS64-style architecture specification
-written in Sail. To support integration with the CHERI ISA it is
-split across several files, which must be given to sail in the
-following order:
-
- 1. mips_prelude.sail contains definitions used in the rest of the
- ISA, including register declarations and helper functions, for
- example for performing address translation.
-
- 2. mips_wrappers.sail contains wrappers and hooks around certain
- functions. In straight MIPS these are mostly identity functions, but
- on CHERI they are substituted for functions which implement
- CHERI-specific behaviour.
-
- 3. mips_insts.sail contains descriptions of instructions in the form
- of AST members, decode and execute function clauses (using Sail's
- scattered union/function definitions).
-
- 4. mips_epilogue.sail just closes the function and AST union definitions.
-
-The CHERI sail model extends this model by adding more declarations in a
-file cheri_prelude.sail, included after mips_prelude.sail, replacing
-the functions in mips_wrappers.sail and adding new instruction
-definitions in cheri_insts.sail.
