This avoids redundancy between them (and also having to port fixes and features)
The error messages have been preserved through a string reporting mechanism
Make the bool field an actual bool
Rename `iReloc` to a more exact `isKnown` (as was already pointed out by some
comments)
Make the value of `BANK(symbol)` consistent when the argument is invalid
The syntax was `charmap "anything", "string"`; the second string was
already handled by `const`, but to the same effect... the ambiguous
declaration has been removed, leaving us at "only" two reduce/reduce
conflicts.
This option allows for automatic dependency detection and generation:
as soon as a missing file is found, it is output to the dep file, and
assembly immediately aborts. (No .o file is produced, even if `-o` was
speicified.) This doesn't cause an error, either; the point is that once
the file is added to the dep file, the Makefile is re-parsed, and this
time the file will be generated, so the dep list builds up automatically.
This mimicks GCC's option and behavior.
Stop using that bitfield for everything, including what can be determined otherwise
It also makes it easier to have a sane state, since some bits were (supposedly)
mutually exclusive
The goal was to improve readability, but along the way a few things were
gained.
- Sorted sym and map files
- Infrastructure for supporting multiple .o versions
- Valgrind-proof, as far as my testing goes anyways
- Improved verbosity messages
- Added error checking
- Performance improvements, see end of commit message
The readability improvement was spurred while trying to make sense of the
old code while trying to implement features such as sorted sym and map
files.
I also did my best to remove hardcoded logic, such that modifications
should be doable; for example, "RAM loading" sections, which are linked
against a different location than the one they're stored at.
Some work remains to be done, see the "TODO:" and "FIXME:" comments.
Further, while regression tests pass, this new linker should be tested on
different codebases (ideally while instrumented with `make develop` and
under valgrind).
The few errors spotted in the man pages (alignment) need to be corrected.
Finally, documentation comments need to be written, I have written a lot of
them but not all.
This also provides a significant performance boost (benchmarked with a
51994-symbol project):

Macro and rept buffers were not always being terminated with newlines
and/or were vulnerable to the final newline being escaped, allowing
buffer overflows to occur. Now, they are terminated with newlines using
the same mechanism as the file buffer.
The old error stack was fairly obtuse and hard to use for debugging.
This improves it notably by ensuring all line numbers are relative
to the file, and not, say, the macro definition.
This is a breaking change if you were parsing the old stack, but
the change should be painless, and the new stack only brings more info.
The syntax is unchanged for files, macros see their name prefixed
with the file they're defined in and a pair of colors, REPT blocks
simply append a '::REPT~n' to the context they're in, where 'n' is
the number of iterations the REPT has done.
This is especially helpful in macro-heavy code such as rgbds-structs.
If a line ended with a string's closing quote, or a newline escape, then
skipping over that line via IF/ELIF/ELSE would fail to count that line,
offsetting the rest of the file.
I have no idea why but for some reason 9829be1 changed *specifically*
`if_skip_to_else` to have incorrect behavior on string endings. The incorrect
behavior on newline escapes seems to have been here since the beginning.
Also added a test to check for both of those behaviors in both functions.
Honestly, it baffles me that nobody ever noticed. I didn't until I started
working on #395.
This adds two new directives: newcharmap and setcharmap.
newcharmap creates a new charmap and switches to it.
setcharmap switches to an existing charmap.
When trying to skip over nested if statements, if there was no whitespace
after an "if", then that "if" would not be recognized. That's a problem since
"if(" and "if{" are also valid ways to start an if statement. This change
will make it so that they are recognized correctly.
Should partially cover #178 and close#270.
This allows printing numbers in different bases and without the dollar prefix
This is especially useful in macros because the dollar isnt a valid character
for symbol names, requiring heavy `STRSUB` usage.
The following mnemonics are now valid:
- ld
- ldh
- ldio
The following are valid as operands:
- [$ff00+c]
- [$ff00 + c]
- [c]
This is done for consistency with 'ld [$FF00+n],a' and variations of it.

The tests are not exhaustive, there are some conditions that aren't
checked. The tests are based in the C standard rules about undefined
behaviour.
This is a compatibility break but, hopefully, all projects are using
sane values. If not, there is no guarantee that the projects will build
in any platform where RGBDS can be compiled, so it would be better to
fix them.
Even though, technically, the left shift of a negative value is always
undefined, some projects rely on its current behaviour. This is the
reason why this doesn't cause a fatal error.

When '@' is used as argument of any instruction (LD, JR, JP, etc), the
address it refers to is the address of the first byte of the
instruction. When '@' is used with DB/DW/DL, it refers to the same
address it is being placed at. This means that instructions need an
offset of 1 byte and others need an offset of 0 bytes.
The assembler doesn't evaluate anything related to '@' because it would
only work in sections with a fixed base address. It is left to the
linker. This means that the offset needs to be added to the RPN
expression of the patch that is saved in the linker. It isn't enough by
adding an offset to the final expresion. The following value wouldn't be
calculated correctly (even if it doesn't make sense):
JP @ * @
The correct patch is `(@ - 1) * (@ - 1)`, not `(@ * @) - 1`.
This patch introduces an offset on 1 byte by default in every line, and
sets it to 0 only if a DB/DW/DL is detected.

This change removes 2 reduce/reduce conflicts in the parser while
preserving the behaviour of the rules.
Note that now each list with empty elements will only print a warning
per line.

rgbasm tries to optimize any loads from/to $FF00-$FFFF and generate
LDH 2-byte opcodes instead of regular LD 3-byte opcodes. This is a bit
inconsistent as it only works for constant values. If a load is trying
to access a label in a HRAM floating section, or a section found in a
different object file, this optimization doesn't work.
This means that a simple refactor or code could allow rgbasm to perform
the optimzation or prevent it from doing so. For certain projects, like
disassemblies, this is a problem.
This patch adds flag -L to rgbasm to disable the optimization, and
doesn't change the behaviour of any other existing code.

Use snprintf instead of other unsafe functions. That way it is possible
to limit the size of the buffer and to ensure that it never overflows.

Previously, JR was only allowed if the destination label was in the same
section as the JR. This patch removes this restriction. The check to see
if the relative value overflows is now done when linking the ROM.

ROMX and WRAMX bank numers are stored in an object file as their number
minus one. This means that this offset has to be applied somewhere.
The old code applied the fix for ROMX and WRAMX in two different places.
It looks like the patch that added support for WRAMX didn't set the
offset correctly in 'src/link/assign.c'. When this was fixed, it was
done in the wrong place, in 'src/asm/asm.y'. This patch moves the fix to
'src/link/assign.c'.
