// This defines the amd64 target for UEFI systems as described in the UEFI specification. See the
// uefi-base module for generic UEFI options. On x86_64 systems (mostly called "x64" in the spec)
// UEFI systems always run in long-mode, have the interrupt-controller pre-configured and force a
// single-CPU execution.
// The win64 ABI is used. It differs from the sysv64 ABI, so we must use a windows target with
// LLVM. "x86_64-unknown-windows" is used to get the minimal subset of windows-specific features.

use crate::spec::Target;

pub fn target() -> Target {
    let mut base = super::uefi_msvc_base::opts();
    base.cpu = "x86-64".into();
    base.max_atomic_width = Some(64);

    // We disable MMX and SSE for now, even though UEFI allows using them. Problem is, you have to
    // enable these CPU features explicitly before their first use, otherwise their instructions
    // will trigger an exception. Rust does not inject any code that enables AVX/MMX/SSE
    // instruction sets, so this must be done by the firmware. However, existing firmware is known
    // to leave these uninitialized, thus triggering exceptions if we make use of them. Which is
    // why we avoid them and instead use soft-floats. This is also what GRUB and friends did so
    // far.
    //
    // If you initialize FP units yourself, you can override these flags with custom linker
    // arguments, thus giving you access to full MMX/SSE acceleration.
