   21: 
   22:   This files defines macros for threading. Many sets of macros are
   23:   defined. Functionally they have only one difference: Some implement
   24:   direct threading, some indirect threading. The other differences are
   25:   just variations to help GCC generate faster code for various
   26:   machines.
   27: 
   28:   (Well, to tell the truth, there actually is another functional
   29:   difference in some pathological cases: e.g., a '!' stores into the
   30:   cell where the next executed word comes from; or, the next word
   31:   executed comes from the top-of-stack. These differences are one of
   32:   the reasons why GCC cannot produce the right variation by itself. We
   33:   chose disallowing such practices and using the added implementation
   34:   freedom to achieve a significant speedup, because these practices
   35:   are not common in Forth (I have never heard of or seen anyone using
   36:   them), and it is easy to circumvent problems: A control flow change
   37:   will flush any prefetched words; you may want to do a "0
   38:   drop" before that to write back the top-of-stack cache.)
   39: 
   40:   These macro sets are used in the following ways: After translation
   41:   to C a typical primitive looks like
   42: 
   43:   ...
   44:   {
   45:   DEF_CA
   46:   other declarations
   47:   NEXT_P0;
   48:   main part of the primitive
   49:   NEXT_P1;
   50:   store results to stack
   51:   NEXT_P2;
   52:   }
   53: 
   54:   DEF_CA and all the NEXT_P* together must implement NEXT; In the main
   55:   part the instruction pointer can be read with IP, changed with
   56:   INC_IP(const_inc), and the cell right behind the presently executing
   57:   word (i.e. the value of *IP) is accessed with NEXT_INST.
   58: 
   59:   If a primitive does not fall through the main part, it has to do the
   60:   rest by itself. If it changes ip, it has to redo NEXT_P0 (perhaps we
   61:   should define a macro SET_IP).
   62: 
   63:   Some primitives (execute, dodefer) do not end with NEXT, but with
   64:   EXEC(.). If NEXT_P0 has been called earlier, it has to perform
   65:   "ip=IP;" to ensure that ip has the right value (NEXT_P0 may change
   66:   it).
   67: 
   68:   Finally, there is NEXT1_P1 and NEXT1_P2, which are parts of EXEC
   69:   (EXEC(XT) could be defined as "cfa=XT; NEXT1_P1; NEXT1_P2;" (is this
   70:   true?)) and are used for making docol faster.
   71: 
   72:   We can define the ways in which these macros are used with a regular
   73:   expression:
   74: 
   75:   For a primitive
   76: 
   77:   DEF_CA NEXT_P0 ( IP | INC_IP | NEXT_INST | ip=...; NEXT_P0 ) * ( NEXT_P1 NEXT_P2 | EXEC(...) )
   78: 
   79:   For a run-time routine, e.g., docol:
   80:   PFA1(cfa) ( NEXT_P0 NEXT | cfa=...; NEXT1_P1; NEXT1_P2 | EXEC(...) )
   81: 
   82:   This comment does not yet describe all the dependences that the
   83:   macros have to satisfy.
   84: 
   85:   To organize the former ifdef chaos, each path is separated
   86:   This gives a quite impressive number of paths, but you clearly
   87:   find things that go together.
   88: 
   89:   It should be possible to organize the whole thing in a way that
   90:   contains less redundancy and allows a simpler description.
