nu+ toolchain can be extended to support 64-bit operations. A git branch with full 64-bit support is provided. Consequently, if it is necessary to compile the toolchain supporting this extension, a checkout on llvm-7 branch is required.
Changes are related to both frontend and backend.
nu+ Frontend Modifications
nu+ frontend abstracts target informations through the TargetInfo class, extending it in the NuPlusTargetInfo implementation.
Since 64-bit operations require to support double-integer and double-floating-point formats, the following changes and additions are required in the target definition:
class LLVM_LIBRARY_VISIBILITY NuPlusTargetInfo : public TargetInfo {
...
public:
NuPlusTargetInfo(const llvm::Triple &Triple, const TargetOptions &Opts)
: TargetInfo(Triple) {
...
resetDataLayout("e-m:e-p:32:32-i64:64:64-i32:32:32-f32:32:32-f64:64:64");
LongDoubleWidth = 64;
LongDoubleAlign = 64;
DoubleWidth = 64;
DoubleAlign = 64;
LongWidth = 64;
LongAlign = 64;
LongLongWidth = 64;
LongLongAlign = 64;
}
