A "TableGen backend" is just a function. See below for a 12239310Sdim// precise description. 13239310Sdim// 14239310Sdim//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// 15239310Sdim 16239310Sdim 17239310Sdim// A TableGen backend is a function that looks like 18239310Sdim// 19239310Sdim// EmitFoo(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS /*, anything else you need */ ) 20239310Sdim// 21239310Sdim// What you do inside of that function is up to you, but it will usually 22239310Sdim// involve generating C++ code to the provided raw_ostream. 23239310Sdim// 24239310Sdim// The RecordKeeper is just a top-level container for an in-memory 25239310Sdim// representation of the data encoded in the TableGen file. What a TableGen 26239310Sdim// backend does is walk around that in-memory representation and generate 27239310Sdim// stuff based on the information it contains. 28239310Sdim// 29239310Sdim// The in-memory representation is a node-graph (think of it like JSON but 30239310Sdim// with a richer ontology of types), where the nodes are subclasses of 31239310Sdim// Record. The methods `getClass`, `getDef` are the basic interface to 32239310Sdim// access the node-graph. RecordKeeper also provides a handy method 33239310Sdim// `getAllDerivedDefinitions`. Consult "include/llvm/TableGen/Record.h" for 34239310Sdim// the exact interfaces provided by Record's and RecordKeeper. 35239310Sdim// 36239310Sdim// A common pattern for TableGen backends is for the EmitFoo function to 37239310Sdim// instantiate a class which holds some context for the generation process, 38239310Sdim// and then have most of the work happen in that class's methods. This 39239310Sdim// pattern partly has historical roots in the previous TableGen backend API 40239310Sdim// that involved a class and an invocation like `FooEmitter(RK).run(OS)`. 41239310Sdim// 42239310Sdim// Remember to wrap private things in an anonymous namespace. For most 43239310Sdim// backends, this means that the EmitFoo function is the only thing not in 44239310Sdim// the anonymous namespace. 45239310Sdim 46239310Sdim 47239310Sdim// FIXME: Reorganize TableGen so that build dependencies can be more 48239310Sdim// accurately expressed. Currently, touching any of the emitters (or 49239310Sdim// anything that they transitively depend on) causes everything dependent 50239310Sdim// on TableGen to be rebuilt (this includes all the targets!). Perhaps have 51239310Sdim// a standalone TableGen binary and have the backends be loadable modules 52239310Sdim// of some sort; then the dependency could be expressed as being on the 53239310Sdim// module, and all the modules would have a common dependency on the 54239310Sdim// TableGen binary with as few dependencies as possible on the rest of 55239310Sdim// LLVM. 56239310Sdim 57239310Sdim 58239310Sdimnamespace llvm { 59239310Sdim 60239310Sdimclass raw_ostream; 61239310Sdimclass RecordKeeper; 62239310Sdim 63239310Sdimvoid EmitIntrinsics(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS, bool TargetOnly = false); 64239310Sdimvoid EmitAsmMatcher(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 65239310Sdimvoid EmitAsmWriter(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 66239310Sdimvoid EmitCallingConv(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 67239310Sdimvoid EmitCodeEmitter(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 68239310Sdimvoid EmitDAGISel(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 69239310Sdimvoid EmitDFAPacketizer(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 70239310Sdimvoid EmitDisassembler(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 71239310Sdimvoid EmitFastISel(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 72239310Sdimvoid EmitInstrInfo(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 73239310Sdimvoid EmitPseudoLowering(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 74239310Sdimvoid EmitRegisterInfo(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 75239310Sdimvoid EmitSubtarget(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 76243830Sdimvoid EmitMapTable(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 77249423Sdimvoid EmitOptParser(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 78249423Sdimvoid EmitCTags(RecordKeeper &RK, raw_ostream &OS); 79239310Sdim 80239310Sdim} // End llvm namespace 81
