From c782286080cbd837a29d1dafa47dc198d74cd7ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Selfhosting Dev Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2025 15:35:56 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] feat(llvm): LoopForm IR experimental scaffolding (Phase 1) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit - Add NYASH_ENABLE_LOOPFORM=1 gate for experimental loop normalization - Detect simple while-patterns in Branch terminator (header→body→header) - Add loopform.rs with scaffold for future Signal-based lowering - Wire detection in codegen/mod.rs (non-invasive, logs only) - Update CURRENT_TASK.md with LoopForm experimental plan - Goal: Centralize PHIs at dispatch blocks, simplify terminator management This is the first step towards the LoopForm IR revolution where "Everything is Box × Everything is Loop". Currently detection-only, actual lowering will follow once basic patterns are validated. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude --- CURRENT_TASK.md | 11 ++ .../compiler/codegen/instructions/flow.rs | 108 ++++++++++++++++++ .../compiler/codegen/instructions/loopform.rs | 84 ++++++++++++++ .../llvm/compiler/codegen/instructions/mod.rs | 2 + src/backend/llvm/compiler/codegen/mod.rs | 58 ++++++++++ 5 files changed, 263 insertions(+) create mode 100644 src/backend/llvm/compiler/codegen/instructions/loopform.rs diff --git a/CURRENT_TASK.md b/CURRENT_TASK.md index 6da8b3fc..ba7e14c3 100644 --- a/CURRENT_TASK.md +++ b/CURRENT_TASK.md @@ -180,6 +180,17 @@ Next (short, focused) - Ensure every lowered block has a terminator; use builder.get_insert_block().get_terminator() guard before fallback - Instrument per‑block lowering (bid, has terminator?, emitted kind) to isolate misses - Keep fallback minimal and only when MIR.block.terminator is None and LLVM has no terminator + +LoopForm IR — Experimental Plan (gated) +- Goal: Centralize PHIs and simplify terminator management by normalizing loops to a fixed block shape with a dispatch join point. +- Gate: `NYASH_ENABLE_LOOPFORM=1` enables experimental lowering in LLVM path (MIR unchanged in Phase 1). +- Representation: Signal-like pair `{ i8 tag, i64 payload }` (0=Next,1=Break initially).
