* Stop execution if not active in until_address()HEADmainMiquel Sabaté Solà2 days1-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Even if the desired thing is to run until the provided address is reached, abort execution as well if the machine stops being active as well. This is a common scenario when running in function mode and the target end address is something passed that.

* runrom: add the --until-address optionMiquel Sabaté Solà3 days1-15/+1
| | | | | | | | | This allows the user to run execution until a given address is reached. This can, like with the --start option, be coupled with the --nasm option in order to be able to provide an identifier instead of a regular hexadecimal value.

* Do not mark some valid identifiers as invalidMiquel Sabaté Solà9 days1-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Some identifiers like "@aa" were marked as invalid as "aa" is a potentially hexadecimal value, but the "@" symbol actually disambiguates this situation. Hence, if a non-alphanumeric character (that the parser liked) is actually found, ensure it cannot be considered as an hexadecimal value. Provide also a test of is_valid_identifier(). The list is certainly not exhaustive, but it should be good enough coupled with end-to-end tests. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Validate labels when walking through the contextMiquel Sabaté Solà9 days1-3/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The parser does not validate label names completely (it only takes care of validating that it something that makes sense syntactically). The assembler can tell whether the label is actually taking a reserved name, or an invalid hexadecimal constant, etc. Before this commit a user would get a cryptic "invalid identifier" message when referencing an invalid label (e.g. "jmp 1234"). Fix this by validating the identifier there, but also when the label was defined before any of this. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Add global labelsMiquel Sabaté Solà9 days4-21/+94
| | | | | | | | | | | | These are labels that are declared by prefixing a '#' symbol to the name, and it allows the label to be declared at the global scope instead of the current one. This is a feature which is not to be abused so to not make scopes pointless, but it can be quite handy with some optimizations while not abandoning scopes completely.

* Add the runrom crate and the vnf libraryMiquel Sabaté Solà10 days3-0/+1194
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vnf library supports the runrom crate and they both combined enable users to "run" a ROM file. This is basically an emulator, but with two key differences: 1. It is to be run programatically. That is, you are not expected to play games with this, but to run code by steps, start at a given address, run a function, etc. 2. It is headless: there are no graphics displayed on screen, nor sound being delivered. Thus, the target for both these things are developers, not players. This way developers can validate code paths without needing a full blown emulator. You can write tests with this and be able to run some checks as part of your testing infrastructure.

| | | | | | | | | This new file contains all the addresses that are known to the assembler, belonging to either proc's or plain labels. For the former we will further be able to tell the "end" of the proc. With that, the file follows a simple CSV format, with the name, start and end.

* readrom: print the usual PRG-RAM size if availableMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | If 'has_persistent_memory' has been set on the ROM header, then we must print it even if bytes 8/10 was never set by the header. In fact, the vast majority of ROM files don't have these bytes set but they report a true value for 'has_persistent_memory'. Hence, assume the usual PRG-RAM size in these cases, which is (I hope) the correct one in all cases. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Prevent out of bounds panics on range_to_human()Miquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On range_to_human(), if the range is completely broken for some reason, we might get a start = 0 and end = 0. In this case, then we would get into an 'end - 1' computation for an 'usize', resulting in bad arithmetics. This can be avoided altogether if the 'start + 1' computation from the start of the function not only results to be equal, but also larger than 'end'. This, of course, doesn't make much sense, and it's most probably a bandaid; but it has been detected via fuzzy testing with wild inputs. Hence, it's fine if this function doesn't return a coherent string representation for deranged inputs. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>

* Add support for the asan:fixed-segments commentMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-093-24/+189
| | | | | | | | This magic comment allows for the definition of segments that are fixed and for which references are always safe. This goes in tandem with the asan:safe comment, which can then be used more sporadically. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Add a warning for unknown cross-mapping referencesMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-084-1/+105
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some segments, like the 'vectors' one, will reference code that is outside of its mapping. But in some other configurations, segments cannot make these cross-mapping references so happily. Imagine: .segment "SWAPPABLE" .proc foo rts .endproc .segment "FIXED" jsr foo Here the assembler will properly detect the address of 'foo' in the context of the 'SWAPPABLE' segment. But what this assembler doesn't know is that this segment is swappable (e.g. UNROM chip). Hence, if the bank being mapped right now is not the one containing the 'SWAPPABLE' segment, then the address computed for 'foo' and used in that 'jsr' instruction will point to something else entirely. This would be similar to a use-after-free bug. This is something that can only be inspected at runtime, and so the assembler cannot be of much help here. Hence, this commit adds a warning so the programmer can understand the potentially dangerous operation. All of that being said, this commit also adds support for "asan:safe" or "check:safe", which is a magic comment that the programmer can write to re-assure the assembler that this operation is fine (e.g. there is a guarantee that the mapped bank is that one we are expecting). Hence, the code above could now be written like so: jsr foo ; check:safe Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>

* Let arguments be able to reference their macroMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-072-32/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The enum type for macro arguments has been adjusted so it accepts a String. This is then used to store the name of the macro for this argument. This is a bit of a circlejerk, but in the end it stems from the fact that macro arguments were sort of a hack defined ad-hoc each time they were needed. That being said, if we want to report macro arguments being unused, we need to reference the actual macro definition, not the macro call. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Be more specific on unused objectsMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-071-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | It was downright lazy from my end to not inspect the line of the object that was being unused. Fix this by trying to fetch the bundle's node. This right now applies to variable definitions. Objects like macro arguments are pending to be done. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Preserve the 'accessed' member on macro argumentsMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-071-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Macro arguments get tampered with every time a new call has to be bundled. Deep down this is done by cloning the underlying object, but this resets any increase on the 'accessed' member, giving always the impression that macro arguments are never accessed. Fix this by at least preserving this member when cloning a macro argument. Note that this is neither the most elegant solution, and probably not the most correct. As in, it will probably get into a non-precise count after some calls. But at least it will be a non-zero value, which is more than enough to what this is actually used for.

* Do not optimize away unresolved non-jumpsMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-07-071-1/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the following code: .macro MACRO ADDR adc ADDR .endmacro MACRO label label: nop The evaluation of the 'adc' instruction went into being re-sized to 1 despite indications of being an address (and hence hinting to a size of 2). This was done because of the optimization to shrink a single byte left arm from absolute to relative addressing. But on unresolved bundles this is bad, as everything may still be zeroed out, and the instruction itself doesn't hint on the end size. This shrinking would then mess with the segment's offset, and we would end up with an offset of 2 instead of 3 for the label 'label'. Note that this is in the same spirit as commit ed3d34b0afb1 ("Only shrink the addressing on resolved bundles"), but now applied to the get_from_left() function which apparently was spared for whatever reason.

* Refer to the original file for unused objectsMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-06-052-22/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When warning users on unused objects (e.g. variables, proc's), we have to pick up the source of origin for this warning. In places where the original PNode is not available, then we go with the last source we have at hand, as that's the usual way to go (i.e. the error occurred at the current source/context). That being said, for unused objects that's not desirable, because we might otherwise claim the error to happen on the file we first targetted, but it's way more useful to understand where the object was defined. Hence, when defining a variable, address or proc, let's actually store the PNode associated with it as well. This way the checker can hopefully get the source from this PNode and be more clear to the user. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>

| | | | | | | | | Since the addition of the check() function in commit 6a9dea943c07 ("Add a new 'check' stage in assemble()"), it can be annoying to some users that the check for unused/unreferenced object applies by default.

* Send an error for unused .proc'sMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-04-282-42/+104
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We cannot safely detect all scenarios in which there is dead code, but we can safely do it for .proc's. Even if they are not called directly, they might be referenced via jump tables and shenanigans like that. Long story short, if you are not referencing a .proc in any meaningful way, then we have dead code. A pattern could also be given in which a function that was too long has been splitted into smaller functions which are not called directly. This is, in my opinion, an anti-pattern (as we generally expect an rts or a jmp from .proc's), and anyways can be avoided via the use of __fallthrough__ if the programmer is really set to write this kind of code.

* nasm: add the --split-segments optionMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-04-281-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | This allows the programmer to tell nasm to leave each segment into its own .out file. This can be useful when writing some specific segments into different chips. The caveat is that filling is not applied, and hence it's up to the programmer to account for that if two or more segments happened to be on the same mapping and needed some alignment in between.

* Fix calls with arguments containing addressesMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-04-241-1/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some macro calls could contain addresses, like this: MACRO_CALL @address Before this commit this was resolved at the "crunch" stage, but only because we were grabbing the value from the part that was not resolved. However, if this unresolved object came from a node which is not just a value (e.g. an arithmetic operation), then it just applied the computation from before the "crunch" stage. So, for something like this: MACRO_CALL @address + 1 the argument would have been computed as simply "1", as that unresolved object only contained the "+ 1" known part. Fix this by re-evaluating the node at "crunch" stage whenever we have an attached "node" member to the given pending definition. This way, we can evaluate the full node and get the proper value from the arithmetic computation. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Ensure expressions in arguments are fully parsedMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-04-232-0/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Imagine the following scenario: lda #.lobyte(@address + 1) Here we have an immediate which comes from the .lobyte call. That being said, since this is using the '#' symbol, we look ahead after noticing it just in case we need to disambiguate some scenarios. When a parenthesis is found, in extract_paren_expression() we temporarily discard the looking ahead status as expressions inside of parenthesis are no longer affected by any hypothetical external ambiguity. This, though, was not being done in parse_arguments(), which is the function that would be called in the above scenario. Hence, ensure that we temporarily decrease the look ahead status for the inner arguments, and then increase it back when we are done. This way, when the parser finds '@address', it will no longer go the "we have found a 'value', refrain from ambiguities and return early" route, and it will check for any binary expression. Note that all this dance actually applied here, as binary operations are a source of ambiguities, and the look ahead mechanism was brought about because of these kinds of expressions. Hence, it's not like the look ahead mechanism is troublesome in on itself, we just missed the special handling on this specific scenario. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Implement the asan:stack statementMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-04-083-7/+328
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This statement allows programmers to reserve a memory range for the stack. This is useful to reserve a memory region which is not attached to any variable, and: 1. It is a way to safely reserve space on the $0100 page. 2. The --stats/--write-info flags will be able to add up the memory space reserved for the stack. 3. Future tooling might be able to use this value as a way to detect stack overflows. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>
* Re-create the values for bundle call argumentsMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-03-101-4/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bundle call arguments were fine most of the times, when arguments could be processed as-is and there were no issues with arguments being overwritten by successive calls. This was not the case, though, whenever a given instruction was delayed into a PendingNode status. In this case, the argument would get the last value, and in some extreme cases that definition might not have been there any more. Prevent all of this by providing a list of PendingDefine's, which are a way to re-create these call-only arguments as they were initially found. These PendingDefine's are then created on "crunch" on each PendingNode. Signed-off-by: Miquel Sabaté Solà <mssola@mssola.com>

* Define the global scope to a more obscure nameMiquel Sabaté Solà2026-02-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By how we define scopes, we needed an internal name for the global scope. All the way back to my first commit 587dd5bb8036 ("Initial commit"), I simply picked "Global". That is troublesome, as it can easily be typed by a human. If a programmer writes a scope with "global" definitions via this scope, this can be messed up with nasm's internal Global scope. Change that to a more obscure name for this internal global scope. If a programmer is so dead from the inside that wants to have a scope named like that, so be it.
