# uVM - Micro Virtual Machine
uVM is simply an experiment ins developing a working virtual machine with it's own bytecode.
## Requirements
* CMake version 3.8 or higher
* Clang and Clang++
## Building
1. `git clone` the repository
2. `cmake .`
3. `make`
## Architecture
uVM is a _stack machine_. That is, it gets all of it's arguments from the stack, and returns the result
of the computation back to the stack when it's done.
There are some exceptions to this. In particular the current version of uvm supports a single variable,
called `0`, that can be written to using `xpop0` where x is the datatype of the thing getting taken off
the stack.
Additionally `0` can be placed on the top of the stack using `xpush0`.
## uVM Instruction Set
uVM possesses the standard issue instruction set you might expect in a simple VM:
| Instruction | Opcode | Action |
| ------------ | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| ipush _X_ | 0 | Pushes _integer_ X onto the stack |
| ipush0 | 1 | Pushes the _integer_ in `0` onto the stack |
| ipop0 | 2 | Pops the top _integer_ of the stack off and into variable 0 |
| icmp | 3 | Compares the top two items on the stack together and returns a boolean result |
| iadd | 4 | Adds the top two _integer_ arguments of the stack together |
| isub | 5 | Subtracts the top two _integer_ arguments of the stack from each other |
| jmp _LABEL_ | 6 | Unconditional jump to _label_ |
| jc _LABEL_ | 7 | Jump if the top of the stack is a 1 |
As I learn more about VM development this instruction set will likely become much more robust.
