<h3 class="section">F.2 Bytecode Descriptions</h3>

<p>Each bytecode description has the following form:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>add</code> (0x02): <var>a</var> <var>b</var> &rArr; <var>a+b</var></dt>
<dd>
<p>Pop the top two stack items, <var>a</var> and <var>b</var>, as integers; push
their sum, as an integer.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>

<p>In this example, <code>add</code> is the name of the bytecode, and
<code>(0x02)</code> is the one-byte value used to encode the bytecode, in
hexadecimal.  The phrase &ldquo;<var>a</var> <var>b</var> &rArr; <var>a+b</var>&rdquo; shows
the stack before and after the bytecode executes.  Beforehand, the stack
must contain at least two values, <var>a</var> and <var>b</var>; since the top of
the stack is to the right, <var>b</var> is on the top of the stack, and
<var>a</var> is underneath it.  After execution, the bytecode will have
popped <var>a</var> and <var>b</var> from the stack, and replaced them with a
single value, <var>a+b</var>.  There may be other values on the stack below
those shown, but the bytecode affects only those shown.
</p>
<p>Here is another example:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>const8</code> (0x22) <var>n</var>: &rArr; <var>n</var></dt>
<dd><p>Push the 8-bit integer constant <var>n</var> on the stack, without sign
extension.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>

<p>In this example, the bytecode <code>const8</code> takes an operand <var>n</var>
directly from the bytecode stream; the operand follows the <code>const8</code>
bytecode itself.  We write any such operands immediately after the name
of the bytecode, before the colon, and describe the exact encoding of
the operand in the bytecode stream in the body of the bytecode
description.
</p>
<p>For the <code>const8</code> bytecode, there are no stack items given before
the &rArr;; this simply means that the bytecode consumes no values
from the stack.  If a bytecode consumes no values, or produces no
values, the list on either side of the &rArr; may be empty.
</p>
<p>If a value is written as <var>a</var>, <var>b</var>, or <var>n</var>, then the bytecode
treats it as an integer.  If a value is written is <var>addr</var>, then the
bytecode treats it as an address.
</p>
<p>We do not fully describe the floating point operations here; although
this design can be extended in a clean way to handle floating point
values, they are not of immediate interest to the customer, so we avoid
describing them, to save time.
</p>

<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>float</code> (0x01): &rArr;</dt>

<p>Prefix for floating-point bytecodes.  Not implemented yet.

<dd><p>Pop two integers from the stack, multiply them, and push the product on
the stack.  Note that, when one multiplies two <var>n</var>-bit numbers
yielding another <var>n</var>-bit number, it is irrelevant whether the

Thus, an offset of zero denotes the beginning of the expression.

<p>The <var>offset</var> is stored as a sixteen-bit unsigned value, stored
immediately following the <code>if_goto</code> bytecode.  It is always stored
most significant byte first, regardless of the target&rsquo;s normal

To produce a small negative value, push a small twos-complement value,

<p>The constant <var>n</var> is stored in the appropriate number of bytes

<dd><p>Identical to trace_quick, except that <var>size</var> is a 16-bit big-endian
unsigned integer, not a single byte.  This should probably have been
named <code>trace_quick16</code>, for consistency.

</dd>
<dt><code>tracev</code> (0x2e) <var>n</var>: &rArr; <var>a</var></dt>
<dd><p>Record the value of trace state variable number <var>n</var> in the trace
buffer.  The handling of <var>n</var> is as described for <code>getv</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>tracenz</code> (0x2f)  <var>addr</var> <var>size</var> &rArr;</dt>
<dd><p>Record the bytes at <var>addr</var> in a trace buffer, for later retrieval
by GDB.  Stop at either the first zero byte, or when <var>size</var> bytes
have been recorded, whichever occurs first.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>printf</code> (0x34)  <var>numargs</var> <var>string</var> &rArr;</dt>
<dd><p>Do a formatted print, in the style of the C function <code>printf</code>).
The value of <var>numargs</var> is the number of arguments to expect on the
stack, while <var>string</var> is the format string, prefixed with a
two-byte length.  The last byte of the string must be zero, and is
included in the length.  The format string includes escaped sequences
just as it appears in C source, so for instance the format string
<code>&quot;\t%d\n&quot;</code> is six characters long, and the output will consist of
a tab character, a decimal number, and a newline.  At the top of the
stack, above the values to be printed, this bytecode will pop a
&ldquo;function&rdquo; and &ldquo;channel&rdquo;.  If the function is nonzero, then the
target may treat it as a function and call it, passing the channel as
a first argument, as with the C function <code>fprintf</code>.  If the
function is zero, then the target may simply call a standard formatted
print function of its choice.  In all, this bytecode pops 2 +
<var>numargs</var> stack elements, and pushes nothing.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>end</code> (0x27): &rArr;</dt>
<dd><p>Stop executing bytecode; the result should be the top element of the
stack.  If the purpose of the expression was to compute an lvalue or a
range of memory, then the next-to-top of the stack is the lvalue&rsquo;s
address, and the top of the stack is the lvalue&rsquo;s size, in bytes.
