/* For VAX, relative addresses of "just the right length" are easy.
   The branch displacement is always the last operand, even in
   synthetic instructions.
   For VAX, we encode the relax_substateTs (in e.g. fr_substate) as:

  		    4       3       2       1       0	     bit number
  	---/ /--+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
  		|     what state ?	|  how long ?	|
  	---/ /--+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+

   The "how long" bits are 00=byte, 01=word, 10=long.
   This is a Un*x convention.
   Not all lengths are legit for a given value of (what state).
   The "how long" refers merely to the displacement length.
   The address usually has some constant bytes in it as well.

 groups for VAX address relaxing.

 1.	"foo" pc-relative.
 length of byte, word, long

 2a.	J<cond> where <cond> is a simple flag test.
 length of byte, word, long.
 VAX opcodes are:	(Hex)
 bneq/bnequ	12
 beql/beqlu	13
 bgtr		14
 bleq		15
 bgeq		18
 blss		19
 bgtru		1a
 blequ		1b
 bvc		1c
 bvs		1d
 bgequ/bcc	1e
 blssu/bcs	1f
 Always, you complement 0th bit to reverse condition.
 Always, 1-byte opcode, then 1-byte displacement.

 2b.	J<cond> where cond tests a memory bit.
 length of byte, word, long.
 Vax opcodes are:	(Hex)
 bbs		e0
 bbc		e1
 bbss		e2
 bbcs		e3
 bbsc		e4
 bbcc		e5
 Always, you complement 0th bit to reverse condition.
 Always, 1-byte opcode, longword-address, byte-address, 1-byte-displacement

 2c.	J<cond> where cond tests low-order memory bit
 length of byte,word,long.
 Vax opcodes are:	(Hex)
 blbs		e8
 blbc		e9
 Always, you complement 0th bit to reverse condition.
 Always, 1-byte opcode, longword-address, 1-byte displacement.

 3.	Jbs/Jbr.
 length of byte,word,long.
 Vax opcodes are:	(Hex)
 bsbb		10
 brb		11
 These are like (2) but there is no condition to reverse.
 Always, 1 byte opcode, then displacement/absolute.

 4a.	JacbX
 length of word, long.
 Vax opcodes are:	(Hex)
 acbw		3d
 acbf		4f
 acbd		6f
 abcb		9d
 acbl		f1
 acbg	      4ffd
 acbh	      6ffd
 Always, we cannot reverse the sense of the branch; we have a word
 displacement.
 The double-byte op-codes don't hurt: we never want to modify the
 opcode, so we don't care how many bytes are between the opcode and
 the operand.

 4b.	JXobXXX
 length of long, long, byte.
 Vax opcodes are:	(Hex)
 aoblss		f2
 aobleq		f3
 sobgeq		f4
 sobgtr		f5
 Always, we cannot reverse the sense of the branch; we have a byte
 displacement.

 The only time we need to modify the opcode is for class 2 instructions.
 After relax() we may complement the lowest order bit of such instruction
 to reverse sense of branch.

 For class 2 instructions, we store context of "where is the opcode literal".
 We can change an opcode's lowest order bit without breaking anything else.

 We sometimes store context in the operand literal. This way we can figure out
 after relax() what the original addressing mode was.  */

/*       BUGS, GRIPES,  APOLOGIA, etc.

   The opcode table 'votstrs' needs to be sorted on opcode frequency.
   That is, AFTER we hash it with hash_...(), we want most-used opcodes
   to come out of the hash table faster.

   I am sorry to inflict yet another VAX assembler on the world, but
   RMS says we must do everything from scratch, to prevent pin-heads
   restricting this software.

   This is a vaguely modular set of routines in C to parse VAX
   assembly code using DEC mnemonics. It is NOT un*x specific.

   The idea here is that the assembler has taken care of all:
     labels
     macros
     listing
     pseudo-ops
     line continuation
     comments
     condensing any whitespace down to exactly one space
   and all we have to do is parse 1 line into a vax instruction
   partially formed. We will accept a line, and deliver:
     an error message (hopefully empty)
     a skeleton VAX instruction (tree structure)
     textual pointers to all the operand expressions
     a warning message that notes a silly operand (hopefully empty)

   17may86 Dean Elsner. Bug if line ends immediately after opcode.
   30apr86 Dean Elsner. New vip_op() uses arg block so change call.
    6jan86 Dean Elsner. Crock vip_begin() to call vip_op_defaults().
    2jan86 Dean Elsner. Invent synthetic opcodes.
  	Widen vax_opcodeT to 32 bits. Use a bit for VIT_OPCODE_SYNTHETIC,
  	which means this is not a real opcode, it is like a macro; it will
  	be relax()ed into 1 or more instructions.
  	Use another bit for VIT_OPCODE_SPECIAL if the op-code is not optimised
  	like a regular branch instruction. Option added to vip_begin():
  	exclude	synthetic opcodes. Invent synthetic_votstrs[].
   31dec85 Dean Elsner. Invent vit_opcode_nbytes.
  	Also make vit_opcode into a char[]. We now have n-byte vax opcodes,
  	so caller's don't have to know the difference between a 1-byte & a
  	2-byte op-code. Still need vax_opcodeT concept, so we know how
  	big an object must be to hold an op.code.
   30dec85 Dean Elsner. Widen typedef vax_opcodeT in "vax-inst.h"
  	because vax opcodes may be 16 bits. Our crufty C compiler was
  	happily initialising 8-bit vot_codes with 16-bit numbers!
  	(Wouldn't the 'phone company like to compress data so easily!)
   29dec85 Dean Elsner. New static table vax_operand_width_size[].
  	Invented so we know hw many bytes a "I^#42" needs in its immediate
  	operand. Revised struct vop in "vax-inst.h": explicitly include
  	byte length of each operand, and it's letter-code datum type.
   17nov85 Dean Elsner. Name Change.
  	Due to ar(1) truncating names, we learned the hard way that
  	"vax-inst-parse.c" -> "vax-inst-parse." dropping the "o" off
  	the archived object name. SO... we shortened the name of this
  	source file, and changed the makefile.  */

/* This is a table of optional op-codes. All of them represent
   'synthetic' instructions that seem popular.

   Here we make some pseudo op-codes. Every code has a bit set to say
   it is synthetic. This lets you catch them if you want to
   ban these opcodes. They are mnemonics for "elastic" instructions
   that are supposed to assemble into the fewest bytes needed to do a
   branch, or to do a conditional branch, or whatever.

   The opcode is in the usual place [low-order n*8 bits]. This means
   that if you mask off the bucky bits, the usual rules apply about
   how long the opcode is.

   All VAX branch displacements come at the end of the instruction.
   For simple branches (1-byte opcode + 1-byte displacement) the last
   operand is coded 'b?' where the "data type" '?' is a clue that we
   may reverse the sense of the branch (complement lowest order bit)
   and branch around a jump. This is by far the most common case.
   That is why the VIT_OPCODE_SYNTHETIC bit is set: it says this is
   a 0-byte op-code followed by 2 or more bytes of operand address.

   If the op-code has VIT_OPCODE_SPECIAL set, then we have a more unusual
   case.

   For JBSB & JBR the treatment is the similar, except (1) we have a 'bw'
   option before (2) we can directly JSB/JMP because there is no condition.
   These operands have 'b-' as their access/data type.

   That leaves a bunch of random opcodes: JACBx, JxOBxxx. In these
   cases, we do the same idea. JACBxxx are all marked with a 'b!'
   JAOBxxx & JSOBxxx are marked with a 'b:'.  */

  	Arg block.

   There were a number of 'mismatched argument type' bugs to vip_op.
   The most general solution is to typedef each (of many) arguments.
   We used instead a typedef'd argument block. This is less modular
   than using separate return pointers for each result, but runs faster
   on most engines, and seems to keep programmers happy. It will have
   to be done properly if we ever want to use vip_op as a general-purpose
   module (it was designed to be).

 	G^

   Doesn't support DEC "G^" format operands. These always take 5 bytes
   to express, and code as modes 8F or 9F. Reason: "G^" deprives you of
   optimising to (say) a "B^" if you are lucky in the way you link.
   When someone builds a linker smart enough to convert "G^" to "B^", "W^"
   whenever possible, then we should implement it.
   If there is some other use for "G^", feel free to code it in!

  	speed

   If I nested if()s more, I could avoid testing (*err) which would save
   time, space and page faults. I didn't nest all those if()s for clarity
   and because I think the mode testing can be re-arranged 1st to test the
   commoner constructs 1st. Does anybody have statistics on this?

  	error messages

   In future, we should be able to 'compose' error messages in a scratch area
   and give the user MUCH more informative error messages. Although this takes
   a little more code at run-time, it will make this module much more self-
   documenting. As an example of what sucks now: most error messages have
   hardwired into them the DEC VAX metacharacters "#^@" which are nothing like
   the Un*x characters "$`*", that most users will expect from this AS.

   ----

   The input is a string, ending with '\0'.

   We also require a 'hint' of what kind of operand is expected: so
   we can remind caller not to write into literals for instance.

   The output is a skeletal instruction.

   The algorithm has two parts.
   1. extract the syntactic features (parse off all the @^#-()+[] mode crud);
   2. express the @^#-()+[] as some parameters suited to further analysis.

   2nd step is where we detect the googles of possible invalid combinations
   a human (or compiler) might write. Note that if we do a half-way
   decent assembler, we don't know how long to make (eg) displacement
   fields when we first meet them (because they may not have defined values).
   So we must wait until we know how many bits are needed for each address,
   then we can know both length and opcodes of instructions.
   For reason(s) above, we will pass to our caller a 'broken' instruction
   of these major components, from which our caller can generate instructions:
    -  displacement length      I^ S^ L^ B^ W^ unspecified
    -  mode                     (many)
    -  register                 R0-R15 or absent
    -  index register           R0-R15 or absent
    -  expression text          what we don't parse
    -  error text(s)            why we couldn't understand the operand

   ----

   To decode output of this, test errtxt. If errtxt[0] == '\0', then
   we had no errors that prevented parsing. Also, if we ever report
   an internal bug, errtxt[0] is set non-zero. So one test tells you
   if the other outputs are to be taken seriously.

   ----

   Dec defines the semantics of address modes (and values)
   by a two-letter code, explained here.

     letter 1:   access type

       a         address calculation - no data access, registers forbidden
       b         branch displacement
       m         read - let go of bus - write back    "modify"
       r         read
       v         bit field address: like 'a' but registers are OK
       w         write
       space	 no operator (eg ".long foo") [our convention]

     letter 2:   data type (i.e. width, alignment)

       b         byte
       d         double precision floating point (D format)
       f         single precision floating point (F format)
       g         G format floating
       h         H format floating
       l         longword
       o         octaword
       q         quadword
       w         word
       ?	 simple synthetic branch operand
       -	 unconditional synthetic JSB/JSR operand
       !	 complex synthetic branch operand

   The '-?!' letter 2's are not for external consumption. They are used
   for various assemblers. Generally, all unknown widths are assumed 0.
   We don't limit your choice of width character.

   DEC operands are hard work to parse. For example, '@' as the first
   character means indirect (deferred) mode but elsewhere it is a shift
   operator.
   The long-winded explanation of how this is supposed to work is
   cancelled. Read a DEC vax manual.
   We try hard not to parse anything that MIGHT be part of the expression
   buried in that syntax. For example if we see @...(Rn) we don't check
   for '-' before the '(' because mode @-(Rn) does not exist.

   After parsing we have:

   at                     1 if leading '@' (or Un*x '*')
   len                    takes one value from " bilsw". eg B^ -> 'b'.
   hash                   1 if leading '#' (or Un*x '$')
   expr_begin, expr_end   the expression we did not parse
                          even though we don't interpret it, we make use
                          of its presence or absence.
   sign                   -1: -(Rn)    0: absent    +1: (Rn)+
   paren                  1 if () are around register
   reg                    major register number 0:15    -1 means absent
   ndx                    index register number 0:15    -1 means absent

   Again, I dare not explain it: just trace ALL the code!
