TAHX : the TLALOC Hardware eXecutor, an OoO stack microprocessor for Ada83/TLALOC

[VMo]

Hi DrPi !

TLALOC is the Ada83 compiler written in Ada83 (self-hosted bootstrapped).
The compiler uses fasmg assembly macros to produce x86_64, arm64, riscv64 ELF binaries, or PE32+ Windows and UEFI executables.

But fasmg also allows for static analysis of the LLIR (Low Level Intermediate Representation) with a special codi_SX fasmg backend, and execution dynamic analysic with an interpreter TX_RUN reading a TX research executable produced with yet another codi_TX macros backend.

From those studies, an ISA implementing the Ada83/TLALOC LLIR and derived from the common LLIR of all targets has been designed with the intention of executing the binary on a real edge cutting stack processor (TAHX : TLALOC Ada Hardware eXecutor).

TAHX is a stack processor with stack slots renaming to allow for Out of Order (OoO) execution. It has a working vhdl specification and even some floor-planning and partial OpenROAD synthesis.

About the TLALOC category

Hi.all ! I add this post here because it is about the general organization I set up for the TLALOC project. As source hut wants to banish LLM sustained work, I created the github Team-Ada-83-TLALOC under which are 4 repositories : The repositories are : 1) The Ada 83 compiler repository 2) The minimal Windows version of the compiler 3) The TX_RUN experimental interpreter/profiler of the TLALOC LLIR A program which executes and profiles TX and HX custom executable formats designed…
