Code Generator Trainer

The Code Generator Trainer from Solid Sands is a bootstrapping pack of nearly one thousand test files split over 25 carefully constructed levels, aimed at boot-strapping new compiler development. When a team builds a code generator for a new target processor or a custom instruction set, the hardest part is getting from nothing to a backend that handles real C constructs correctly. The Trainer gives that effort a structured, incremental path.

A Graduated Path to a Working Backend

The 25 levels are ordered so each builds on the last, per Solid Sands: setting up a minimal interface for code-generator testing, then simple integer arithmetic, type conversions, pointer operations, structure addressing modes, register allocation, control flow, calling conventions, character and short handling, long long arithmetic, and variable arguments (varargs). A developer brings up the backend one capability at a time, with a known-good test set proving each step before moving on.

RISC-V and Custom-ISA Compiler Backend Development

The Trainer is intended for developers writing code generators for new target processors using existing open-source or proprietary compiler development platforms that already provide a front end, optimizations, and a retargetable code generator. As Indian semiconductor teams build silicon around RISC-V and custom ISAs, the Trainer is a practical first rung: once a backend is bootstrapped, the same team can move to full conformance with SuperTest and library qualification with SuperGuard.

Why Buy from GSAS

GSAS Micro Systems is the India engineering partner for Solid Sands, providing the Code Generator Trainer with INR invoicing and backend bring-up support. Our engineers in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune, Mumbai, and Delhi NCR help semiconductor and compiler teams developing for RISC-V and custom silicon get a new code generator from first principles to a standard-conformant, qualifiable toolchain.
