ovm - ARCHIVED - A stack based virtual machine to act as a target for other programming languages

Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2023-10-15	Split off instruction structure to its own file	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Added an instruction setup	Aryadev Chavali
	op_t provides opcodes, inst_t provides a wrapper with operands. vm_t carries around a pointer to a set of instructions, and vm_execute attempts to execute that one. I do some weird stuff here, and it's definitely not complete.
2023-10-15	stack.size -> stack.max	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Main now loads a stack allocated byte array for VM stack	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Added a routine to load a pointer as stack memory	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Changed stack data to be a pointer	Aryadev Chavali
	I wouldn't really want this to be malloc'd per se, you could make a byte array on the stack then pass it into the VM?
2023-10-15	Split off general types and structures into separate header	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Changed stack.pointer->stack.ptr	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Added floats (64 bit floating point) push and pop routines	Aryadev Chavali
	Not machine independent, uses the underlying memcpy routine.
2023-10-15	Force big endian when pushing words	Aryadev Chavali
	This ensures that if one wanted to pop a word byte by byte, they'd go from least to most significance. Machine independent so that's nice.
2023-10-15	Add macro for size of a word	Aryadev Chavali
	Smaller number of changes necessary to change types.
2023-10-15	Added macro constructors for union types	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Implemented functions to pop a byte and a word	Aryadev Chavali

2023-10-15	Implemented a union type to make vm_push_* routines uniform	Aryadev Chavali
	Function dispatch
2023-10-15	Added functions to push a byte and a word	Aryadev Chavali
	Maybe I should make a union for the type, so I can dispatch via function pointers?
2023-10-15	Defined a simple virtual machine data structure	Aryadev Chavali
	Currently just contains a "stack".
2023-10-15	Added some type aliases	Aryadev Chavali
	Nicer to refer to a byte as "byte" rather than "uint8_t"
2023-10-15	First commit!	Aryadev Chavali
	This is a from the ground rework of an old project of the same name. I'm hoping to be more concerned with runtime efficiency, bytecode size and all those things that should actually matter for something that may host time/space critical code.
