23 /// X86 Disassembler Emitter
24 ///
25 /// *** IF YOU'RE HERE TO RESOLVE A "Primary decode conflict", LOOK DOWN NEAR
26 ///     THE END OF THIS COMMENT!
27 ///
28 /// The X86 disassembler emitter is part of the X86 Disassembler, which is
29 /// documented in lib/Target/X86/X86Disassembler.h.
30 ///
31 /// The emitter produces the tables that the disassembler uses to translate
32 /// instructions.  The emitter generates the following tables:
33 ///
34 /// - One table (CONTEXTS_SYM) that contains a mapping of attribute masks to
35 ///   instruction contexts.  Although for each attribute there are cases where
36 ///   that attribute determines decoding, in the majority of cases decoding is
37 ///   the same whether or not an attribute is present.  For example, a 64-bit
38 ///   instruction with an OPSIZE prefix and an XS prefix decodes the same way in
39 ///   all cases as a 64-bit instruction with only OPSIZE set.  (The XS prefix
40 ///   may have effects on its execution, but does not change the instruction
41 ///   returned.)  This allows considerable space savings in other tables.
42 /// - Six tables (ONEBYTE_SYM, TWOBYTE_SYM, THREEBYTE38_SYM, THREEBYTE3A_SYM,
43 ///   THREEBYTEA6_SYM, and THREEBYTEA7_SYM contain the hierarchy that the
44 ///   decoder traverses while decoding an instruction.  At the lowest level of
45 ///   this hierarchy are instruction UIDs, 16-bit integers that can be used to
46 ///   uniquely identify the instruction and correspond exactly to its position
47 ///   in the list of CodeGenInstructions for the target.
48 /// - One table (INSTRUCTIONS_SYM) contains information about the operands of
49 ///   each instruction and how to decode them.
50 ///
51 /// During table generation, there may be conflicts between instructions that
52 /// occupy the same space in the decode tables.  These conflicts are resolved as
53 /// follows in setTableFields() (X86DisassemblerTables.cpp)
54 ///
55 /// - If the current context is the native context for one of the instructions
56 ///   (that is, the attributes specified for it in the LLVM tables specify
57 ///   precisely the current context), then it has priority.
58 /// - If the current context isn't native for either of the instructions, then
59 ///   the higher-priority context wins (that is, the one that is more specific).
60 ///   That hierarchy is determined by outranks() (X86DisassemblerTables.cpp)
61 /// - If the current context is native for both instructions, then the table
62 ///   emitter reports a conflict and dies.
63 ///
64 /// *** RESOLUTION FOR "Primary decode conflict"S
65 ///
66 /// If two instructions collide, typically the solution is (in order of
67 /// likelihood):
68 ///
69 /// (1) to filter out one of the instructions by editing filter()
70 ///     (X86RecognizableInstr.cpp).  This is the most common resolution, but
71 ///     check the Intel manuals first to make sure that (2) and (3) are not the
72 ///     problem.
73 /// (2) to fix the tables (X86.td and its subsidiaries) so the opcodes are
74 ///     accurate.  Sometimes they are not.
75 /// (3) to fix the tables to reflect the actual context (for example, required
76 ///     prefixes), and possibly to add a new context by editing
77 ///     lib/Target/X86/X86DisassemblerDecoderCommon.h.  This is unlikely to be
78 ///     the cause.
79 ///
80 /// DisassemblerEmitter.cpp contains the implementation for the emitter,
81 ///   which simply pulls out instructions from the CodeGenTarget and pushes them
82 ///   into X86DisassemblerTables.
83 /// X86DisassemblerTables.h contains the interface for the instruction tables,
84 ///   which manage and emit the structures discussed above.
85 /// X86DisassemblerTables.cpp contains the implementation for the instruction
86 ///   tables.
87 /// X86ModRMFilters.h contains filters that can be used to determine which
88 ///   ModR/M values are valid for a particular instruction.  These are used to
89 ///   populate ModRMDecisions.
90 /// X86RecognizableInstr.h contains the interface for a single instruction,
91 ///   which knows how to translate itself from a CodeGenInstruction and provide
92 ///   the information necessary for integration into the tables.
93 /// X86RecognizableInstr.cpp contains the implementation for a single
94 ///   instruction.
