Detailed Description

The general purpose of instruction selection is to completely transform all P4 frontend code to parallel instructions that the compiler can completely understand. These parallel instructions are encoded in IR::MAU::Instruction.

Currently the following classes exist to perform the conversion:

  • InstructionSelection: generic all-purpose class for handling the complete translation between frontend IR and backend.
  • StatefulAttachmentSetup: specifically to create or possibly link IR::MAU::HashDist units with their associated IR::MAU::BackendAttached tables, or setup other attachment modes
  • ConvertCastsToSlices: Conversion of all IR::Casts to IR::Slices as expressions. Specifically on assignment, will extend or possibly not extend the value that is being written
  • VerifyActions: Verifies that all generated instructions will be correctly understood and interpreted by the remainder of the compiler
