I am developing an interpreter that converts an Intermediate Representation (IR) into an Assembly. However, I have a doubt that it is necessary to convert each instruction individually to Assembly, as shown in the example below. Additionally, I would like to receive recommendations and optimization suggestions based on the code provided. Any guidance or insight on how to improve the Assembly conversion process and make it more efficient.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
typedef enum {
OP_ADD,
OP_SUB,
OP_DIV,
OP_MUL,
NUM_OPCODES
} bytecode_opcode;
void convert_add() { printf("add rax, rbxn"); }
void convert_sub() { printf("sub rax, rbxn"); }
void convert_div() { printf("div rbxn"); }
void convert_mul() { printf("mul rbxn"); }
typedef void (*conversion_func)();
conversion_func conversion_table[NUM_OPCODES] = {
convert_add,
convert_sub,
convert_div,
convert_mul
};
void convert_to_x64(bytecode_opcode instr) {
if (instr >= 0 && instr < NUM_OPCODES) {
conversion_func func = conversion_table[instr];
func();
} else {
printf("Opcode inválidon");
}
}
int main() {
convert_to_x64(OP_ADD);
convert_to_x64(OP_MUL);
convert_to_x64(10);
return 0;
}
