Subject: [9front] draft: kill rathole ("non-interruptible temporary")
Date: Sun, 11 Sep 2022 22:59:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6AA8ABF35C2E1C92459083EDB2C920A9@eigenstate.org> (raw)

Currently, kencc generates temporaries into a global
rathole, rahter than putting them onto the stack; this
means that any code with a 'non-interruptible
temporary' not thread or note safe.

this code takes a first pass at removing it from kencc,
using 'regsalloc' to store them on the stack.

There's no attempt at reuse, so there may be room for
improvement, but given that we don't use so many
temporaries this way, it seems acceptable to just leave
them on the stack until the function exits.

this has only been tested lightly, and hasn't built more
than a few dozen lines of test code, so it's nowhere near
ready to commit; it's just presented for comment.

any thoughts on the approach? anything obvious I missed?
