Compiler, Code Generation

• scanner: support multiple instances (IDE uses separate scanner instance)

• code generator

  • proc calls: only save registers that carry live values
  • use movem to save/restore registers
  • only save/restore registers on proc entry/exit that are actually used inside
  • peephole optimizer
  • cache (var) pointer temps
  • escape analysis: keep local variables in registers only (m68kframe inReg)
  • optimizing assembler (32 bit condition jumps, clr., ...)
  • frame/var size >32KByte support
  • register arguments
  • SSA (static single assignment) intermediate form
  • backend abstraction layer, enable alternative backends (RISC-V, ARM, x86, LLVM, ...)
  • if / condition constant propagation (test w/ while)
  • fix spilling
  • translate.c: add #0, tmp ; mul *1 ; div / 1 ; ...
  • optionally: initialize all variables to 0?
  • T_Cast that results in NOP or simple MOVE: introduce T_TypeView node

• create Icons for Binaries
