The objects are still compiled in the subdir, but the creation of the
archive itself is in the top-level. This is a required step before we
can move compilation itself up, and makes it easier to review.
The downside is that each object compile is a recursive make instead of
a single one. On my 4 core system, it adds ~100msec to the build per
port, so it's not great, but it shouldn't be a big deal. This will go
away of course once the top-level compiles objects.

Add rules for tracking generated subdir modules.c files. This doesn't
actually generate the file from the top-level, but allows us to add
rules that need to be ordered wrt it. Once those changes land, we can
rework this to actually generate from the top-level.
This currently builds off of the objects that go into the libsim.a as
we don't build those from the top-level either. Once we migrate that
up, we can switch this to the source files directly. It's a bit hacky
overall, but makes it easier to migrate things in smaller chunks, and
we aren't going to keep this logic long term.
The multirun generation mode is a bit of a mess as generated run files
depend on generate igen files, all with unknown names ahead of time.
In the multirun mode, be lazy and declare all of these generated source
files as built sources so they'll be created early on.
This should have been part of the previous commit 80636a54bc
("sim: build: move generated headers to built sources"), but they were
missed because they're .c files effectively treated as .h files.
Automake's automatic header deptracking has a bootstrap problem where
it can't detect generated headers when compiling. We've been handling
that by adding a custom SIM_ALL_RECURSIVE_DEPS variable, but that only
works when building objects recursively in subdirs. As we move those
out to the top-level, we don't have any recursive steps anymore. The
Automake approach is to declare those headers in BUILT_SOURCES.
This isn't completely foolproof as the Automake manual documents: it
only activates for `make all`, not `make foo.o`, but that shouldn't be
a huge limitation as it only affects the initial compile. After that,
rebuilds should work fine.
The rules seem to generate the same output as existing subdir cgen
rules with cgen ports, so hopefully this should be correct. These
are the last set of codegen rules that we run in subdirs, so this
will help unblock killing off subdir builds entirely.
Rather than define our own hack for emitting an include statement,
use the existing Automake include variables. These have the nice
side-effect of being more portable.
This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
The naming in here has grown organically and is confusing to follow.
Originally there was only one set of rules for generating code from
the igen sources, so calling it "tmp-igen" and such made sense. But
when other multigen modes were added ("m16" & "multi") which also
used igen, it's not clear what's common igen and what's specific to
this generation mode. So rename the set of rules from "igen" to
"single" so it's easier to follow.
This variable is only used to generate the itable files. In preparation
for merging the itable logic among all ports, rename "multi_flags" to a
more appropriate "igen_itable_flags" variable. There should be no real
chagnes here otherwise.
This code appears to be unused since it was first merged. When
micromips was enabled, it was via the "MULTI" config, not the
"MICROMIPS" config, and the multi configs have sep vars. Since
nothing sets SIM_MIPS_GEN=MICROMIPS in the config, all of this
should be unreachable, so punt it to simplify. Further, the
SIM_MIPS_MICROMIPS16_FLAGS & SIM_MIPS_MICROMIPS_FLAGS settings
rely on sim_mips_micromips{,16}_{filter,machine} variables that
are never set in the configure script.
While mips has respected sim_igen_smp at configure time (which was
always empty since it defaulted smp to off), no other igen port did.
Move this to a makefile variable and plumb it through the common
IGEN_RUN variable instead so everyone gets it by default. We also
clean up some redundant -N0 setting with multirun mips.
This is the last bit of logic that exists in the mips configure
script, so move it to the top-level configure to kill it off.
We still have to move the Makefile.in igen logic to local.mk,
but this is a required first step for that.
Make sure the igen tool exists before trying to compile the mips
subdir. This happens to work when mips has a subconfigure, but
hits a race condition when that is removed.
This drops support for the --enable-sim-float configure option,
but it's not clear anyone ever actually used that. Eventually
we'll want this to be a runtime option anyways.
We need these in the top-level to generate libsim.a, but also in the
subdirs to generate hw-config.h. Move it to the local.mk, and pass
it down when running recursive make. This avoids duplication, and
makes it available to both. We can simplify this once we move the
various steps up to the top-level too.
In order to create libsim.a in the common dir, we need the list of
objects for each target. To avoid duplicating the list with the
recursive make in each port, pass it down as a variable. This is
a temporary hack until the top-level creates libsim.a for ports.
Simplify the build by moving the generation of these files from
build-time (via dgen.c that we have to compile & execute on the
build system) to maintainer/release mode (via spreg-gen.py that
we only ever execute when the spreg table actually changes). It
speeds up the build process and makes it easier for us to reason
about & review changes to the code generator.
The tool is renamed from "dgen" because it's hardcoded to only
generated spreg files. It isn't a generalized tool for creating
lookup tables.
We've been using this only to set the default word size to 32. We
can easily move this into the makefile via a -D compiler flag and
clean up the build logic quite a bit.

We've been using this only to set the default word size to 32-vs-64

configure script to clean things up a bit.
The install code was using $SUBDIRS to track all enabled arches. This
works, but isn't great if we want to add a subdir that isn't an arch
port, or as we merge the subdirs into the top-level. Create a new var
explicitly to track the list of enabled arches instead.
This was needed when the install step was run in subdirs, but now
that we process that entirely in the top-level, we don't need to
pass this down, so drop it.
