* NCG: Split up the native code generator into arch specific modules
- nativeGen/Instruction defines a type class for a generic
instruction set. Each of the instruction sets we have,
X86, PPC and SPARC are instances of it.
- The register alloctors use this type class when they need
info about a certain register or instruction, such as
regUsage, mkSpillInstr, mkJumpInstr, patchRegs..
- nativeGen/Platform defines some data types enumerating
the architectures and operating systems supported by the
native code generator.
- DynFlags now keeps track of the current build platform, and
the PositionIndependentCode module uses this to decide what
to do instead of relying of #ifdefs.
- It's not totally retargetable yet. Some info info about the
build target is still hardwired, but I've tried to contain
most of it to a single module, TargetRegs.
- Moved the SPILL and RELOAD instructions into LiveInstr.
- Reg and RegClass now have their own modules, and are shared
across all architectures.
Nice going Ben! This was long overdue.
Cheers,
Simon
