The code emitter is definitely not the way you want to go about solving this problem, though. Are the instruction opcode (MachineInstr::getOpcode()) and the operand values not sufficient? All the information present in the encoding should be inferable from those, as that’s where the encoding comes from.<div><br></div><div>-Jim<br><div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On May 30, 2013, at 10:12 AM, Jafar J <<a href="mailto:pluck90@hotmail.com">pluck90@hotmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr" style="letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12pt;"><div><div style="font-style: normal; display: inline; font-family: Calibri; font-size: small; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;"><font size="3" face="Calibri">I need to represent each instruction with its (32-bit) binary encoding, and I reached to a conclusion that I could get the encoding through the MipsCodeEmitter. What I’m trying to do exactly is write a scheduler which tries to minimize the switching activity between the scheduled instructions in each basic block. One way to do that is by representing each instruction with its complete binary encoding, which will be available after the register allocation.</font></div></div><div><div style="font-style: normal; display: inline; font-family: Calibri; font-size: small; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;"> </div></div><div><div style="font-style: normal; display: inline; font-family: Calibri; font-size: small; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;">Thanks for the reply!</div></div><div><div style="font-style: normal; display: inline; font-family: Calibri; font-size: small; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;"> </div></div><div><div style="font-style: normal; display: inline; font-family: Calibri; font-size: small; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;">-Jafar J</div><div style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; font-family: tahoma;"><div><font size="3" face="Calibri"></font> </div><div style="background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245); background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;"><div><b>From:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a title="grosbach@apple.com" href="mailto:grosbach@apple.com">Jim Grosbach</a></div><div><b>Sent:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Thursday, May 30, 2013 7:55 PM</div><div><b>To:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a title="pluck90@hotmail.com" href="mailto:pluck90@hotmail.com">Jafar J</a></div><div><b>Cc:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a title="llvmdev@cs.uiuc.edu" href="mailto:llvmdev@cs.uiuc.edu">llvmdev@cs.uiuc.edu</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>;<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a title="llvmdev@cs.uiuc.edu" href="mailto:llvmdev@cs.uiuc.edu">Mailing List</a></div><div><b>Subject:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Re: [LLVMdev] Activating MIPS Code Emitter.</div></div></div><div> </div></div><div style="font-style: normal; display: inline; font-family: Calibri; font-size: small; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;">What are you actually trying to do?

I’m assuming that the MipsGenRegisterInfo.inc is not yet generated when I’m trying to include it in the PostRAScheduler.
