Expand description
Runtime support for the aarch64 architecture assembling target.
The aarch64 instruction set features fixed-width 32-bit instructions and relative relocations up to 28 bits in size.
The core relocation behaviour for this architecture is provided by the Aarch64Relocation
type.
Next to that, this module contains the following:
§Type aliases
Several specialized type aliases of the generic Assembler
are provided as these are by far the most common usecase.
§Enums
There are enumerator of every logically distinct register family usable in aarch64.
These enums implement the Register
trait and their discriminant values match their numeric encoding in dynamic register literals.
Note: The presence of some registers listed here is purely what is encodable. Check the relevant architecture documentation to find what is architecturally valid.
§Functions
The aarch64 architecture allows encoding several special types of immediates. The encoding implementations for these immediate types have been exposed to assist the user
in correctly using these instructions. They will return Some(encoding)
only if the given value can be encoded losslessly in that immediate type.
Enums§
- Relocation implementation for the aarch64 architecture.
- 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16-bytes scalar FP / vector SIMD registers.
- 4 or 8-byte general purpopse registers, where X31 is the zero register.
- 0x1F addresses both XZR and SP (disambiguated by context). This enum is a mirror of RX just with the SP in place of XZR.
Functions§
- Helper function for validating that a given value can be encoded as a floating point immediate
- Helper function for validating that a given value can be encoded as a 32-bit logical immediate
- Helper function for validating that a given value can be encoded as a 64-bit logical immediate

Type Aliases§
