Observe the C conventions for use of the FP register stack. In particular, free up any live fp registers prior to non-local control transfers. Sigh. This is not good. The FP situation needs to be reviewed once the rest of x86 nativeGen is stable.

genCCall (x86): pass float args in double format.

Julian Seward authored
spillReg, loadReg (x86): always spill fp registers using double-sized loads/stores, even if they nominally contain only a float value -- otherwise the spill loses the extra guard bits.

Changed default text size to "normal".

spillReg, loadReg (x86): spill above %esp, not below it. Duh. If you spill below %esp, ccalls, which use stack below %esp, can trash the spill area.

Sven's first autoheader commandment: Don't change config.h.in manually...! (Why is mk/config.h.in in the repository? configure is not, either.)

amodeToStix, GET_TAG: implement correctly for little-endian-32 and supply implementation for big-endian-32. Definitely won't work on 64-bit platforms.

x86: free up all FP regs before doing a ccall. This appears to be a part of the x86 calling convention(s).

Added a bunch of #defines for {SIZEOF,ALIGNMENT}_{INT,WORD}{8,16,32,64}. All this is a real hack: The include files need a more thorough restructuring.

Julian Seward authored
genCCall for x86, as supplied, used PUSH et al to move args onto the C stack ready for the call. Reasonable as this seems, it causes a problem with spill code, since the spiller spills relative to %esp and assumes that %esp doesn't move. If the args of a ccall involved any spilled values, the resulting code would be wrong. The One True Way is to do it like a RISC: move args to the stack without adjusting %esp for each argument, then adjust it all at once immediately prior to the call insn and un-adjust it immediately afterwards. genCCall now does this. In general, push/pop and other C-stack effecting operations should not be generated for the same reason.
