every installed enhancement is a call to the interpreter's evaluator for its slot (`xrun`). o3 regions are not compiled to x86-64: a region entry is never chained to, so control reaches it through the c loop, which runs the region on the region interpreter exactly as the interpreter build does, and a store from either side into the other's code drops what it should (the regions mark their words in the same coverage map). the region interpreter is slower than the jit's own code for the same words (the `bench.sh` o3 kernels take 2 to 4 times longer than their plain versions on this jit, where they are 3 to 8 times faster on the interpreter), so `ZYNOO3=1` leaves regions alone and runs their vm code through the jit, as the microcore does, until a region compiler for x86-64 exists. +the x86-64 jit (linux hosts, `ZYJIT_X64`) keeps the same state in callee-saved registers: r12 is the memory base, r13 the data stack pointer, r14 the return stack pointer, r15 the translation table and rbx the state block, with rax, rcx, rdx, rsi, rdi and r8..r11 as scratch and rsp 16-byte aligned inside translated code so calls into c are plain system v calls. it shares everything but the emitter with the arm64 jit: the translation table, the coverage map, the store hook, the dropped-translation bookkeeping, the flush, the block rules below and the dispatch stubs' policy. inside a block it does not move r13 for every push and pop: the translator counts the words pushed and popped and addresses stack slots from r13 with that offset, and brings r13 up to date before a call into c and at every exit. it translates the base opcodes, the float and byte opcodes (the byte loads inline, the byte stores through a c helper), install, and the c abi call; every installed enhancement is a call to the interpreter's evaluator for its slot (`xrun`). o3 regions are compiled to x86-64 too, but not as on arm64: there are too few registers to keep the vars in them, so each var lives in its home frame slot (rbp points at the frame, reloaded at every entry), and a block's values get the six registers rsi, rdi, r8..r11. the vars a block changes are written home at its end, and the other slots that share a var get it at every exit. calls are plain vm calls through the dispatch stub, and ops the lowering lacks (floats, popcount) call the evaluator. a region that needs more than six live values, or makes native calls, runs on the region interpreter, entered from the c loop; `ZYO3INTERP=1` puts every region there, and `ZYNOO3=1` leaves regions alone and runs their vm code through the jit, as the microcore does. compilation is lazy. the first time control reaches an address, that block is translated from live memory. a block ends at call, jump, ret or halt. a `z` doesn't end it: the not-taken side keeps compiling, which makes superblocks. a literal followed by `c`, `j` or `z` is fused into a constant target. every exit goes through a dispatch stub that checks both stack pointers against their limits (kept in x24 and x25), bounds-checks the target, loads `tab[t]`, and branches straight to it when it's already compiled. otherwise it returns to c, which compiles the block and re-enters. enhancements are inlined: inputs load from the data stack into x0..x15, the optimized micro-ops run in registers with x16 and x17 as scratch, and the outputs go back. an install calls into c and invalidates translations and o3 regions that depend on its slot. invalidated code is rebuilt on its next entry. when the loop reaches an o3 entry point, it compiles the region (or reuses it) instead of translating a block. @@ -520,8 +520,8 @@ brief someone without re-reading the code. - [x] (done on work/line-tables, see "agent work at the end of the session") runtime source positions. architecture: at each statement start (`stmt()`) record (code address `here`, line); per function a permanent data block [entry, end, name, file, count, pairs...] linked into a runtime list (`rt.line_blocks`), or appended to run-only images by `build_image` like the symbol blob. `lines on;`/`lines off;` like `docs on;`; on for user programs, off for the genome unless the growth is small. a new syscall op returns the return-stack pointer (the return stack is in vm memory, 0x1A4100..0x1B40FF, growing up); implement it in `src/core/core.c`, `src/micro/micro.c`, `src/js/tinyvm.ts` and the wasm port. `rt.trace()` walks the return stack, printing ` at file:line in function` for words inside a known function range. the runtime's fatal reports (`oob`, bad heap pointer, double free, out of memory, frame overflow) print the trace after their unchanged first line. check mode skips all of it. - [ ] borrow returns tied to an argument. inference already works for a callee defined before the call: `char* skip(char* s) { ...; return s + i; }` makes `let r = skip(t); rt.free(t); r[0]` an error. the gap: when the call comes before the callee's definition, nothing is reported and the program reads freed memory. extend the deferred effect requirements (`effect_require`, `effect_finish` at unit end) so a forward-called function whose return turns out to alias a parameter produces the same error. for bodyless declarations, externs and function types, add an unobtrusive spelling, for example a `borrows s` clause after the parameter list (`char* skip(char* s) borrows s;`), checked against the body when one exists. - [ ] variadic arguments and `std.print`. design: a pack is passed as one hidden argument, a caller-built read-only growable-array handle (`fixed T[?]` view: [len, cap, items, element size] in the caller's frame, so `len(a)` and `a[i]` work unchanged and nothing is allocated). `...int a` is a typed pack; several packs per function when their element types differ (`void f(...int a, ...char b)`): each extra argument goes to the pack whose element type matches its static type, an ambiguous match is an error, packs come after the fixed parameters. `...any args` packs each value with a kind code (int, float, char, string, bstr, pointer, ...) and its type record: `any` is a small built-in record { kind, value, type }. `...*any args` makes the call comma-free: after the fixed arguments, the parser reads unary expressions until `)`, commas optional, so `std.print("x = " name ", age " age "\n");` works and binary expressions must be parenthesized. `std.print(...*any args)` prints each argument by its kind (`put_n`, the float printer, `put_s`, `put_bs`, a character for `char`, hex for pointers). -- [ ] (inlining done on work/jit2) x86-64 jit phase 2: compile o3 regions to x86-64 (port `rcompile` and the region register allocation;
