With a couple of small patches, I got CGEN to accept the basic
specification of a VLIW
machine with 256 bit instructions. [Of course, at this point, I only
have defined
- TWO instructions (one of them's NOP, and the other is bogus :-)
- ONE operand (CGEN generates bad C code without any operand
definitions.)
Of course, since this is a VLIW machine, there IS only one
instruction, with about 40 subfields.
Is there anyone else working on a VLIW port? Want to coordinate
figuring out what needs
fixing for machines where the instruction is larger than "long long"?
