I guess it is related to mips/ncpucvn.pas: tmipseltypeconvnode.first_int_to_real when compared to ncnv.pas, it seems ignore the floatype of resultdef. But using the inherited first_int_to_real is impossible since int64_to_float64/float32 etc. are not implemented(how can the sparc version work if so, it call the inherited one?)
Because of the two blocks rtl/linux/system.pp that are bracked with {$if defined(CPUARM) or defined(CPUM68K) or defined(CPUSPARC)}. You should probably add CPUMIPS to them, so it also imports the necessary helpers.
BTW, for the statement i := j / 10.0, is that in the div node,
It's a slash node, not a div node (a div node represents the "div" operator).
resultdef refers to i, left refers to j, and right refers to 10.0?
resultdef refers to whatever the default result type of that division is, which in turn depends on the result types of the arguments (j and 10.0). It will be set by the pass_typecheck method, which is called during parsing.
The assignment node will insert a type conversion from this resultdef (which is the resultdef of its right node, the division) to the resultdef of the target of the assignment node (its left node, "i" in this case). If the types are the same, the typeconversion will be optimized away.
In general, the type using which Pascal expressions are evaluated is completely independently from how the result is used afterwards.
Currency is a special case because of all the scaling going on though. In addition to the resultdef, there's also the nf_is_currency node flag to determine whether or not the value still has to be scaled.
But for the typeconvnode, what is the result/left/right node?
There is no right node in a typeconvnode, only a left node (ttypeconvnode inherits from tunarynode, not from binary node). Left is whatever you are converting from, and resultdef (once it has been set from ttypeconvnode.totypedef) is what you are converting to.
