      1 This file is the short summary of the API changes:
      2 
      3 27.03.2017 - Non-backward compatible
      4     JIT stack is changed from bottom-up to top-town.
      5 
      6 15.01.2017 - Non-backward compatible
      7     Move with update may modifiy flags, the base register
      8     can only be used once and [reg+reg<<shift] addressing
      9     mode where shift > 0 is not supported anymore.
     10 
     11 12.01.2017 - Non-backward compatible
     12     Introducing a new flag mechanism which provides better
     13     compatibility with CPUs without flags. Only two flags
     14     remain: zero and variable. The current type of the
     15     variable flag is specified by the arithmetic operator.
     16     The SLJIT_KEEP_FLAGS is removed.
     17 
     18 29.02.2016 - Non-backward compatible
     19     Several types and instructions are renamed to improve
     20     readability. In general byte, half, and int are renamed
     21     to 8, 16, and 32. Floating point types are also renamed
     22     from d and s to f64 and f32.
     23 
     24       [s|u]b -> [s|u]8    (8 bit values)
     25       [s|u]h -> [s|u]16   (16 bit values)
     26       [s|u]i -> [s|u]32   (32 bit values)
     27       d -> f64            (64 bit floating point value)
     28       s -> f32            (32 bit floating point value)
     29 
     30 18.05.2015 - Non-backward compatible
     31     SLJIT_[I|]L[U|S]DIV is renamed to SLJIT_[I|][U|S]DIVMOD
     32 
     33 29.09.2014 - Non-backward compatible
     34     The sljit_create_compiler, sljit_allocate_stack, and
     35     sljit_free_stack functions have an allocator_data
     36     argument now.
     37 
     38 19.09.2014 - Non-backward compatible
     39     Using I, D, S prefixes in conditional and floating
     40     point operations. And an L prefix to long multiplication
     41     and division (op0 opcodes).
     42 
     43 11.08.2014 - Non-backward compatible
     44     A currently unused options parameter is added to sljit_emit_enter
     45     and sljit_set_context.
     46 
     47 06.07.2014 - Non-backward compatible
     48     SCRATCH registers are renamed to Rx and SAVED registers
     49     are renamed to Sx. See the explanation of these registers
     50     in sljitLir.h.
     51 
     52 31.05.2014 - Non-backward compatible
     53     SLJIT_TEMPORARY_EREGx registers were not renamed to
     54     SLJIT_SCRATCH_EREGx when the change was done on 08.11.2012
     55 
     56 05.03.2014 - Backward compatible
     57     The sljit_set_target now supports those jumps, which
     58     does not created with SLJIT_REWRITABLE_JUMP flag.
     59     Reason: sljit_emit_ijump does not support conditional
     60     jumps.
     61 
     62 03.03.2014 - Non-backward compatible
     63     SLJIT_MOV_UI cannot be combined with SLJIT_INT_OP.
     64     Reason: SLJIT_INT_OP flag is not recommended to use
     65     directly, and SLJIT_IMOV has no sign bit.
     66 
     67 29.01.2014 - Backward compatible
     68     Bits assigned to SLJIT_MEM and SLJIT_IMM flags are changed.
     69     Reason: the most common cases are fits into one byte now,
     70     and more registers can be supported in the future.
     71 
     72 08.11.2012 - Non-backward compatible
     73     SLJIT_TEMPORARY_REGx registers are renamed to SLJIT_SCRATCH_REGx.
     74 
     75 07.11.2012 - Non-backward compatible
     76     sljit_emit_cond_value is renamed to sljit_emit_op_flags. An
     77     extra source argument is added which will be used in the future.
     78 
     79 05.11.2012 - Backward compatible
     80     sljit_emit_cond_value now supports SLJIT_AND and SLJIT_INT_OP
     81     flags, which makes this function complete.
     82 
     83 01.11.2012 - Non-backward compatible
     84     SLJIT_F* opcodes are renamed to SLJIT_*D to show that
     85     they are double precision operators. Furthermore
     86     SLJIT_*S single precision opcodes are added.
     87 
     88 01.11.2012 - Non-backward compatible
     89     Register arguments of operations with SLJIT_INT_OP flag
     90     must be computed by another operation with SLJIT_INT_OP flag.
     91     The same way as SLJIT_SINGLE_OP flag works with floating point
     92     numbers. See the description of SLJIT_INT_OP.
     93 
     94 01.11.2012 - Backward compatible
     95     All operations whose support the SLJIT_INT_OP flag, have an
     96     alternate name now, which includes the SLJIT_INT_OP. These
     97     names starting with I.
     98 
     99 31.10.2012 - Non-backward compatible
    100     Renaming sljit_w to sljit_sw, sljit_i to sljit_si, sljit_h
    101     to sljit_sh, and sljit_b to sljit_sb. Reason: their sign
    102     bit is part of the type now.
    103 
    104 20.10.2012 - Non-backward compatible
    105     Renaming SLJIT_C_FLOAT_NAN to SLJIT_C_FLOAT_UNORDERED.
    106     Reason: all architectures call these unordered comparions.
    107
