[v4,5/7] target/riscv: iterate over a table of decoders

Commit Message

Philipp Tomsich Jan. 30, 2022, 11:57 p.m. UTC

To split up the decoder into multiple functions (both to support
vendor-specific opcodes in separate files and to simplify maintenance
of orthogonal extensions), this changes decode_op to iterate over a
table of decoders predicated on guard functions.

This commit only adds the new structure and the table, allowing for
the easy addition of additional decoders in the future.

Changes in v4:
- add braces to comply with coding standard (as suggested by Richard)
- merge the two if-statements to reduce clutter after (now that the
  braces have been added)

Changes in v3:
- expose only the DisasContext* to predicate functions
- mark the table of decoder functions as static
- drop the inline from always_true_p, until the need arises (i.e.,
  someone finds a use for it and calls it directly)
- rewrite to drop the 'handled' temporary in iterating over the
  decoder table, removing the assignment in the condition of the if

Changes in v2:
- (new patch) iterate over a table of guarded decoder functions
