- -- Implementation of Packed Arrays --
- -------------------------------------
-
- -- When a packed array (sub)type is frozen, we create a corresponding
- -- type that will be used to hold the bits of the packed value, and
- -- store the entity for this type in the Packed_Array_Type field of the
- -- E_Array_Type or E_Array_Subtype entity for the packed array.
-
- -- This packed array type has the name xxxPn, where xxx is the name
- -- of the packed type, and n is the component size. The expanded
- -- declaration declares a type that is one of the following:
-
- -- For an unconstrained array with component size 1,2,4 or any other
- -- odd component size. These are the cases in which we do not need
- -- to align the underlying array.
-
- -- type xxxPn is new Packed_Bytes1;
-
- -- For an unconstrained array with component size that is divisible
- -- by 2, but not divisible by 4 (other than 2 itself). These are the
- -- cases in which we can generate better code if the underlying array
- -- is 2-byte aligned (see System.Pack_14 in file s-pack14 for example).
-
- -- type xxxPn is new Packed_Bytes2;
-
- -- For an unconstrained array with component size that is divisible
- -- by 4, other than powers of 2 (which either come under the 1,2,4
- -- exception above, or are not packed at all). These are cases where
- -- we can generate better code if the underlying array is 4-byte
- -- aligned (see System.Pack_20 in file s-pack20 for example).
-
- -- type xxxPn is new Packed_Bytes4;
-
- -- For a constrained array with a static index type where the number
- -- of bits does not exceed the size of Unsigned:
-
- -- type xxxPn is new Unsigned range 0 .. 2 ** nbits - 1;
-
- -- For a constrained array with a static index type where the number
- -- of bits is greater than the size of Unsigned, but does not exceed
- -- the size of Long_Long_Unsigned:
-
- -- type xxxPn is new Long_Long_Unsigned range 0 .. 2 ** nbits - 1;
-
- -- For all other constrained arrays, we use one of
-
- -- type xxxPn is new Packed_Bytes1 (0 .. m);
- -- type xxxPn is new Packed_Bytes2 (0 .. m);
- -- type xxxPn is new Packed_Bytes4 (0 .. m);
-
- -- where m is calculated (from the length of the original packed array)
- -- to hold the required number of bits, and the choice of the particular
- -- Packed_Bytes{1,2,4} type is made on the basis of alignment needs as
- -- described above for the unconstrained case.
-
- -- When a variable of packed array type is allocated, gigi will allocate
- -- the amount of space indicated by the corresponding packed array type.
- -- However, we do NOT attempt to rewrite the types of any references or
- -- to retype the variable itself, since this would cause all kinds of
- -- semantic problems in the front end (remember that expansion proceeds
- -- at the same time as analysis).
-
- -- For an indexed reference to a packed array, we simply convert the
- -- reference to the appropriate equivalent reference to the object
- -- of the packed array type (using unchecked conversion).
-
- -- In some cases (for internally generated types, and for the subtypes
- -- for record fields that depend on a discriminant), the corresponding
- -- packed type cannot be easily generated in advance. In these cases,
- -- we generate the required subtype on the fly at the reference point.
-
- -- For the modular case, any unused bits are initialized to zero, and
- -- all operations maintain these bits as zero (where necessary all
- -- unchecked conversions from corresponding array values require
- -- these bits to be clear, which is done automatically by gigi).
-
- -- For the array cases, there can be unused bits in the last byte, and
- -- these are neither initialized, nor treated specially in operations
- -- (i.e. it is allowable for these bits to be clobbered, e.g. by not).
-
- ---------------------------
- -- Endian Considerations --
- ---------------------------
-
- -- The standard does not specify the way in which bits are numbered in
- -- a packed array. There are two reasonable rules for deciding this:
-
- -- Store the first bit at right end (low order) word. This means
- -- that the scaled subscript can be used directly as a left shift
- -- count (if we put bit 0 at the left end, then we need an extra
- -- subtract to compute the shift count).
-
- -- Layout the bits so that if the packed boolean array is overlaid on
- -- a record, using unchecked conversion, then bit 0 of the array is
- -- the same as the bit numbered bit 0 in a record representation
- -- clause applying to the record. For example:
-
- -- type Rec is record
- -- C : Bits4;
- -- D : Bits7;
- -- E : Bits5;
- -- end record;
-
- -- for Rec use record
- -- C at 0 range 0 .. 3;
- -- D at 0 range 4 .. 10;
- -- E at 0 range 11 .. 15;
- -- end record;
-
- -- type P16 is array (0 .. 15) of Boolean;
- -- pragma Pack (P16);
-
- -- Now if we use unchecked conversion to convert a value of the record
- -- type to the packed array type, according to this second criterion,
- -- we would expect field D to occupy bits 4..10 of the Boolean array.
-
- -- Although not required, this correspondence seems a highly desirable
- -- property, and is one that GNAT decides to guarantee. For a little
- -- endian machine, we can also meet the first requirement, but for a
- -- big endian machine, it will be necessary to store the first bit of
- -- a Boolean array in the left end (most significant) bit of the word.
- -- This may cost an extra instruction on some machines, but we consider
- -- that a worthwhile price to pay for the consistency.
-
- -- One more important point arises in the case where we have a constrained
- -- subtype of an unconstrained array. Take the case of 20 bits. For the
- -- unconstrained representation, we would use an array of bytes:
-
- -- Little-endian case
- -- 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 16-15-14-13-12-11-10-9 x-x-x-x-20-19-18-17
-
- -- Big-endian case
- -- 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16 17-18-19-20-x-x-x-x
-
- -- For the constrained case, we use a 20-bit modular value, but in
- -- general this value may well be stored in 32 bits. Let's look at
- -- what it looks like:
-
- -- Little-endian case
-
- -- x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-20-19-18-17-...-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
-
- -- which stored in memory looks like
-
- -- 8-7-...-2-1 16-15-...-10-9 x-x-x-x-20-19-18-17 x-x-x-x-x-x-x
-
- -- An important rule is that the constrained and unconstrained cases
- -- must have the same bit representation in memory, since we will often
- -- convert from one to the other (e.g. when calling a procedure whose
- -- formal is unconstrained). As we see, that criterion is met for the
- -- little-endian case above. Now let's look at the big-endian case:
-
- -- Big-endian case
-
- -- x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-...-17-18-19-20
-
- -- which stored in memory looks like
-
- -- x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x x-x-x-x-1-2-3-4 5-6-...11-12 13-14-...-19-20
-
- -- That won't do, the representation value in memory is NOT the same in
- -- the constrained and unconstrained case. The solution is to store the
- -- modular value left-justified:
-
- -- 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-...-17-18-19-20-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
-
- -- which stored in memory looks like
-
- -- 1-2-...-7-8 9-10-...15-16 17-18-19-20-x-x-x-x x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
-
- -- and now, we do indeed have the same representation for the memory
- -- version in the constrained and unconstrained cases.

- -- Subprograms --
- -----------------
-
- procedure Create_Packed_Array_Type (Typ : Entity_Id);
- -- Typ is a array type or subtype to which pragma Pack applies. If the
- -- Packed_Array_Type field of Typ is already set, then the call has no
- -- effect, otherwise a suitable type or subtype is created and stored
- -- in the Packed_Array_Type field of Typ. This created type is an Itype
- -- so that Gigi will simply elaborate and freeze the type on first use
- -- (which is typically the definition of the corresponding array type).
- --
- -- Note: although this routine is included in the expander package for
- -- packed types, it is actually called unconditionally from Freeze,
- -- whether or not expansion (and code generation) is enabled. We do this
- -- since we want gigi to be able to properly compute type characteristics
- -- (for the Data Decomposition Annex of ASIS, and possible other future
- -- uses) even if code generation is not active. Strictly this means that
- -- this procedure is not part of the expander, but it seems appropriate
- -- to keep it together with the other expansion routines that have to do
- -- with packed array types.
-
- procedure Expand_Packed_Boolean_Operator (N : Node_Id);
- -- N is an N_Op_And, N_Op_Or or N_Op_Xor node whose operand type is a
- -- packed boolean array. This routine expands the appropriate operations
- -- to carry out the logical operation on the packed arrays. It handles
- -- both the modular and array representation cases.
-
- procedure Expand_Packed_Element_Reference (N : Node_Id);
- -- N is an N_Indexed_Component node whose prefix is a packed array. In
- -- the bit packed case, this routine can only be used for the expression
- -- evaluation case, not the assignment case, since the result is not a
- -- variable. See Expand_Bit_Packed_Element_Set for how the assignment case
- -- is handled in the bit packed case. For the enumeration case, the result
- -- of this call is always a variable, so the call can be used for both the
- -- expression evaluation and assignment cases.
-
- procedure Expand_Bit_Packed_Element_Set (N : Node_Id);
- -- N is an N_Assignment_Statement node whose name is an indexed
- -- component of a bit-packed array. This procedure rewrites the entire
- -- assignment statement with appropriate code to set the referenced
- -- bits of the packed array type object. Note that this procedure is
- -- used only for the bit-packed case, not for the enumeration case.
-
- procedure Expand_Packed_Eq (N : Node_Id);
- -- N is an N_Op_Eq node where the operands are packed arrays whose
- -- representation is an array-of-bytes type (the case where a modular
- -- type is used for the representation does not require any special
- -- handling, because in the modular case, unused bits are zeroes.
-
- procedure Expand_Packed_Not (N : Node_Id);
- -- N is an N_Op_Not node where the operand is packed array of Boolean
- -- in standard representation (i.e. component size is one bit). This
- -- procedure expands the corresponding not operation. Note that the
- -- non-standard representation case is handled by using a loop through
- -- elements generated by the normal non-packed circuitry.
-
- function Involves_Packed_Array_Reference (N : Node_Id) return Boolean;
- -- N is the node for a name. This function returns true if the name
- -- involves a packed array reference. A node involves a packed array
- -- reference if it is itself an indexed component referring to a bit-
- -- packed array, or it is a selected component whose prefix involves
- -- a packed array reference.
-
- procedure Expand_Packed_Address_Reference (N : Node_Id);
- -- The node N is an attribute reference for the 'Address reference, where
- -- the prefix involves a packed array reference. This routine expands the
- -- necessary code for performing the address reference in this case.
