2018-02-12Add support for top-level letbindings to C backendAlasdair Armstrong
2018-01-30Generate functions from enums to numbers and vice versaAlasdair Armstrong
For an enumeration type T, we can create a function T_of_num and num_of_T which convert from the enum to and from a numeric type. The numeric type is range(0, n) where n is the number of constructors in the enum minus one. This makes sure the conversion is type safe, but maybe this is too much of a hassle. It would be possible to automatically overload all these functions into generic to_enum and from_enum as in Haskell's Enum typeclass, but we don't do this yet. Currently these functions affect a few lem test cases, but I think that is only because they are tested without any prelude functions and pattern rewrites require a few functions to be defined What is really broken is if one tries to generate these functions like enum x = A | B | C function f A = 0 function f B = 1 function f C = 2 the rewriter really doesn't like function clauses like this, and it seems really hard to fix properly (I tried and gave up), this is a shame as the generation code is much more succinct with definitions like above
2018-01-22Update Lem shallow embedding to Sail2Thomas Bauereiss
- Remove vector start indices - Library refactoring: Definitions in sail_operators.lem now use Bitvector type class and work for both bit list and machine word representations - Add Lem bindings to AArch64 and RISC-V preludes TODO: Merge specialised machine word operations from sail_operators_mwords into sail_operators.
2018-01-16Created version of typecheck test suite for sail2 branchAlasdair Armstrong
Currently doesn't try to compile to lem or use the MIPS spec All the failing tests have been removed because I intend to handle them differently - they were very fragile before because there was no indication of why they failed, so as sail evolved they tended to start failing for the wrong reasons and not testing what they were supposed to.
2018-01-05Added bitfield syntax to replicate register bits typeAlasdair Armstrong
For example: bitfield cr : vector(8, dec, bit) = { CR0 : 7 .. 4, LT : 7, CR1 : 3 .. 2, CR2 : 1, CR3 : 0, } The difference this creates a newtype wrapper around the vector type, then generates getters and setters for all the fields once, rather than having to handle this construct separately in every backend.
2017-12-11Prototype interactive mode for sail.Alasdair Armstrong
Requires linenoise library (opam install linenoise) for readline support. Use 'make isail' to build sail with interactive support. Plain 'make sail' should work as before with no additional dependencies. Use 'sail -i <commands>' to run sail interactively, e.g. sail -new_parser -i test/ocaml/prelude.sail test/ocaml/trycatch/tc.sail then try some commands for typechecking and evaluation sail> :t main sail> main () Doesn't use the lem interpreter right now, instead has a small operational semantics in src/interpreter.ml, but this is not very complete and will be changed/removed.

2017-12-06Make AST after rewriting for Lem backend type-checkableThomas Bauereiss
- Add support for some internal nodes to type checker - Add more explicit type annotations during rewriting - Remove hardcoded rewrites for E_vector_update etc from Lem pretty-printer; these will be resolved by the type checker during rewriting now

2017-11-30Improvements to enable parsing and checking intermediate rewritingAlasdair Armstrong
steps Parser now has syntax for mutual recusion blocks mutual { ... fundefs ... } which is used for parsing and pretty printing DEF_internal_mutrec. It's stripped away by the initial_check, so the typechecker never sees DEF_internal_mutrec. Maybe this could change, as forcing mutual recursion to be explicit would probably be a good thing. Added record syntax to the new parser New option -dmagic_hash is similar to GHC's -XMagicHash in that it allows for identifiers to contain the special hash character, which is used to introduce new autogenerated variables in a way that doesn't clash with existing names. Option -sil compiles sail down to the intermediate language defined in sil.ott (not complete yet).

2017-07-27Parameterise convert_ast by the bitvector orderAlasdair Armstrong
2017-07-21Everything moved to new typecheckerAlasdair Armstrong
Modified initial_check.ml so it no longer requires type_internal. It's still needs cleaned up in a few ways. Most of the things it's trying to do could be done nicer if we took some time to re-factor it, and some of the things should just be handled by the main typechecker, leaving it as a think layer between the parse_ast and the ast. Now that's done everything can be switched to the new typechecker and the _new suffixes were deleted from everything except the monomorphisation pass because I don't know the status of that.

2014-07-29A file can now declare that a default order is either inc or dec, and this ↵Kathy Gray
will be reflected in short hand type syntax, inc is still the default if undeclared So: default order dec register bit[32] t (* Declares t as a decreasing vector, starting at 31 on the left and decreasing to 0 *) default order inc register bit[32] o (* Declares o as an increasing vector, starting at 0 on the left and increasing to 31 *) It is presently possible to change the default mid-file; this is almost certainly bad and I will turn it into an error soon.
