1
Assembler:
 
2
 
 
3
Peephole optimiser:
 
4
- Could e.g. turn "ldr lr,[sp,#OFF]; mov pc,lr"
 
5
  into "ldr pc,[sp#OFF]", but then the LR save slot must
 
6
  be in the caller's frame not the callee's.
 
7
- Also kill "mov r0,r0" which seems to occur often.
 
8
 
 
9
hipe_arm:
 
10
- Handle more non-trivial immediates in mk_li/mk_load/mk_store.
 
11
  See e.g. big_list, which has many 11-bit character constants.
 
12
 
 
13
Floating point:
 
14
- Drop no_inline_fp. Implement FP ops as calls to C or ASM
 
15
  primops. All FP values passed by reference in memory.
 
16
  This should at least reduce consing costs.
 
17
 
 
18
Linear scan:
 
19
- Do not hardcode temp1/temp2/temp3. Instead just take three
 
20
  regs from (All\Fixed)\Params. (Ditto in PowerPC.)
