Build Status

full-stack-hello

Implement minimal instruction set and assembler/compiler in order to allow the execution of classic Hello World program.

Instruction set

Opcode Description
OP_ADD sum two operands
OP_SUB subtract two operands
OP_MUL multiply two operands
OP_DIV divide two two operands
OP_MOD Modulo, remainder of operand 1 divided by operand 2
OP_PRINT print integer or string
OP_JLT jump to specified address (in operand 2) if operand 1 is less than 0
OP_JLE jump to specified address (in operand 2) if operand 1 is less than or equal to 0
OP_JZ jump to specified address (in operand 2) if operand 1 is equal to 0
OP_JGE jump to specified address (in operand 2) if operand 1 is greater than or equal to 0
OP_JGT jump to specified address (in operand 2) if operand 1 is greater than 0
OP_JNZ jump to specified address (in operand 2) if operand 1 is not equal to 0
OP_JMP jump to specified address
OP_CALL call to specified address
OP_RET return to where called from
OP_HALT terminate VM

Assembler Usage

Specify -h to obtain the description of the assembler.

$ ./as_exec -h
Usage: as_exec [-w] [-x] [-o <out_file>] <in_file>
       -w Assemble <in_file> and write to an ELF file, see -o below
       -o if -w is specifed, <out_file> is used to store the object code
       -x Load <in_file> and execute it

       <in_file> the file name to be used by commands above

For example, if the assembly file in concern is tests/coverage.s

  1. Assemble an assembly source file and evaluate (execute) it.
    ./as_exec tests/hello.s
    
  2. Assemble an assembly source file and write to default ELF file tests/hello.o.
    ./as_exec -w tests/hello.s
    
  3. Assemble an assembly source file and write to default ELF file tests/temp.o.
    ./as_exec -o tests/temp.o -w tests/hello.s
    
  4. Laod an assembled ELF file tests/hello.o and evaluate (rexcute) it.
    ./as_exec -x tests/hello.o
    

The common ELF tools, such as objdump, can be applied to the output ELF file.

objdump -x tests/hello.o

Currently, the ELF support is very limited and could be improved when volunteer shows up.
