exception handling. There are now two layers an error or warning goes
through before it hits the user: first an error is logged via
yasm_error_set() (or yasm_warn_set() for a warning). Only one error may
be set, whereas multiple warnings can be set (yasm_warn_set maintains a
linked list). Then, calling yasm_errwarn_propagate() propagates any error
and/or warning(s) to an errwarns structure and associates the
errors/warnings with a line number at that time; this call also clears the
pending errors/warnings and allows new ones to be set. The propagate
function can safely be called when there are no pending error/warnings.
In addition, there are some helper errwarn functions that allow clearing of
an error/warning without propagating, getting it separately, etc.
Still yet to be done: changing most/all uses of yasm_internal_error() into
yasm_error_set(YASM_ERROR_ASSERTION).
The main advantage this change has is making libyasm functions feel much
more library like, and separating the user code line numbers from the inner
function error handling (e.g. intnum create functions only needed the line
number to trigger errors; this is no longer required).
The set/propagate/etc functions use global data structures to avoid passing
around a pointer to every function. This would need to be made thread-local
data in a threaded app. Errwarns containers (that keep associated line
numbers) are no longer global, so multiple source streams can be processed
separately with no conflict (at least if there's only a single thread of
execution).
svn path=/trunk/yasm/; revision=1521
As yasm has evolved, various minor additions have been made to libyasm to
support the new features. These minor additions have accumulated, and
some contain significant redundancies. In addition, the core focus of
yasm has begun to move away from the front-end commandline program "yasm"
to focusing on libyasm, a collection of reusable routines for use in all
sorts of programs dealing with code at the assembly level, and the modules
that provide specific features for parsing such code.
This libyasm/module update focuses on cleaning up much of the cruft that
has accumulated in libyasm, standardizing function names, eliminating
redundancies, making many of the core objects more reusable for future
extensions, and starting to make libyasm and the modules thread-safe by
eliminating static variables.
Specific changes include:
- Making a symbol table data structure (no longer global). It follows a
factory model for creating symrecs.
- Label symbols now refer only to bytecodes; bytecodes have a pointer to
their containing section.
- Standardizing on *_create() and *_destroy() for allocation/deallocation.
- Adding a standardized callback mechanism for all data structures that
allow associated data. Allowed the removal of objfmt and
dbgfmt-specific data callbacks in their interfaces.
- Unmodularizing linemgr, but allowing multiple linemap instances (linemgr
is now renamed linemap).
- Remove references to lindex; all virtual lines (from linemap) are now
just "line"s.
- Eliminating the bytecode "type" enum, instead adding a standardized
callback mechanism for custom (and standard internal) bytecode types.
This will make it much easier to add new bytecodes, and eliminate the
possibility of type collisions. This also allowed the removal of the
of_data and df_data bytecodes, as objfmts and dbgfmts can now easily
implement their own bytecodes, and the cleanup of arch's bytecode usage.
- Remove the bytecodehead and sectionhead pseudo-containers, instead
making true containers: section now implements all the functions of
bytecodehead, and the new object data structure implements all the
functions of sectionhead.
- Add object data structure: it's a container that contains sections, a
symbol table, and a line mapping for a single object. Every former use
of sectionhead now takes an object.
- Make arch interface and all standard architectures thread-safe:
yasm_arch_module is the module interface; it contains a create()
function that returns a yasm_arch * to store local yasm_arch data; all
yasm_arch_module functions take the yasm_arch *.
- Make nasm parser thread-safe.
To be done in phase 2: making other module interfaces thread-safe. Note
that while the module interface may be thread-safe, not all modules may be
written in such a fashion (hopefully all the "standard" ones will be, but
this is yet to be determined).
svn path=/trunk/yasm/; revision=1058
- Switch to bit-based output, including shift capability
- This means the standard intnum output functions can be used for non-byte
oriented archs like LC-3b (implemented)
- Default out of range (overflow) warnings for intnum (bugzilla bug 14)
- Change floating point overflow/underflow errors to warnings
To do (hooks but not implemented):
- Shifting floatnums into destination
- Floatnum destinations larger than floatnum value
- Big endian support for intnum and floatnum
Related simultaneous changes:
- Use bc instead of ep in objfmt output_expr() functions; while bc->line
should == (*ep)->line, in case they differ, we want to use the bc->line
so as not to confuse users.
- lc3b-mp22NC test was not properly offsetting the accessed variables, but
since the variable "sections" started at an aligned offset, the output
was actually correct. The new intnum warnings uncovered this issue, so
fix code to be correct (and not generate warnings).
svn path=/trunk/yasm/; revision=1017
- Move config.h and util.h from libyasm (and installed libyasm) to top level.
- Move yasm_* functions from util.h to coretype.h.
- Remove a number of autoconf-related YASM_*_INTERNAL options from libyasm.h.
- Rename YASM_INTERNAL to YASM_LIB_INTERNAL; it now actually means what the
comment describes: enables definitions that violate the yasm_* namespace.
While we're at it, no longer define YASM_LIB_INTERNAL from yasm frontend, so
it's closer to what a real typical libyasm-using application would look like.

Move replace_extension() from file.c to main.c.
Clean up some extern variable declarations in various places (particularly
nasm-compatible parser).

file functions to use bits instead of byte/short/long, and create both little

sections of C files. Also remove IdPath from top comment in files where
RCSID() is used. Move RCSID() to immediately after util.h include.
svn path=/trunk/yasm/; revision=313
- New intnum module to replace using just unsigned long (for >32 bit values).
Read values using BitVector instead of strtoul().
- Brought both floatnum and intnum into expr (still need to integrate calc for
floatnum).
- Add traversal function to ternary tree (for use by symrec_foreach).
- Change floatnum output interface from single/double/extended to byte size.
- Try to make floatnum/intnum interfaces very similar. Still needs work.
- Add/fix *_print functions, including interating ones for sections/bytecodes.
- Fix handling of $ and $$. Both now are properly parsed and bytecode'd.
- Print out all sections and symbol table in main() in preparation for work
on "cleanup" functionality between parser and optimizer stages (really part
of the parser stage).

overall structure much more modular.
The test files, which need access to the internals of the structures being
tested, now include the source file instead of the header file to gain access
to all internal formats and functions.

svn path=/trunk/yasm/; revision=190
Moved token.l.in, bison.y.in, and gen_instr.pl to parsers/nasm/.
New parser, preproc, and outfmt structures. None are complete; outfmt
needs the most work.
The raw preprocessor added (for no preprocessing).
Currently the default for the nasm parser is to use the raw preproc; this
should be changed to nasm_preproc once the nasm preprocessor is finished.
A dbg output format is also new; because outfmt isn't done yet, there's not
much implementation.
What structures still need creating: listfmt, debugfmt.
