---|
24 | The branch displacement problem is a well-known problem in assembler design. |
---|
25 | It revolves around the feature, present in several processor families, of |
---|
26 | having different instructions, of different sizes, for jumps of different |
---|
27 | displacements. The problem, which is provably NP-hard, is then to select the |
---|
28 | instructions such that one ends up with the smallest possible program. |
---|
29 | |
---|
30 | During our research with the CerCo project on formally verifying a C compiler, |
---|
31 | we have implemented and proven correct an algorithm for this problem. In this |
---|
32 | paper, we discuss the problem, possible solutions, our specific solutions and |
---|
33 | the proofs. |
