# uvm assembly lanugage reference

uvm assembly language是uvm的伪汇编语言,可以用来生成uvm字节码,较uvm字节码更可读和维护。uvm上部分编程语言是先编译生成uvm assembly然后再生成uvm字节码的

# Features

  • 一条指令占一行,除非是字符串的跨行
  • 字符串需要支持转义
  • 除字符串里内容外,分号后当前行内容是 可选的 'L'+行号+';' + 当前行注释
  • 一行指令的开头可以有若干空白,指令名和指令参数之间可以隔着若干个空白
  • .local varname 声明变量名
  • 声明常量语法
  .begin_const
     "asd"
     "Hello"
     " world!"
  .end_const
  • 声明upvalues语法
  .begin_upvalue
     1 0
  .end_upvalue
  • 声明代码段语法
.begin_code
   loadk %0 const "asd"    ;L12;  %0表示slot 0
   closure %1 subroutine_2
   move %2 %1
   loadk %3 const "Hello"
   loadk %4 const " world!"
   call %2 3 1
   return %0 1
.end_code
  • .upvalues 数量 声明upvalues的数量
  • .func 函数名 maxstacksize params_count use_vararg 声明proto的开始,以及proto的参数输入返回值数量等
  • loadk, setglobal, return, move等指令对应相应的Lua字节码指令,后面跟着对应参数
  • .end_func 结束一个proto的声明
  • 一个"do end"块生成唯一一条return指令
