Module dynasmrt::aarch64

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

Aarch64Relocation

Relocation implementation for the aarch64 architecture.

RV

1, 2, 4, 8 or 16-bytes scalar FP / vector SIMD registers.

RX

4 or 8-byte general purpopse registers, where X31 is the zero register.

RXSP

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

encode_floating_point_immediate

Helper function for validating that a given value can be encoded as a floating point immediate

encode_logical_immediate_32bit

Helper function for validating that a given value can be encoded as a 32-bit logical immediate

encode_logical_immediate_64bit

Helper function for validating that a given value can be encoded as a 64-bit logical immediate
