asm.js edit / delete

A subset of Javascript designed for compiling C-like languages to (in terms of operations on byte arrays). There's then a marker that a sufficiently smart JIT can look for in order to know it's working with the subset and generate better code. This is both horrible and pretty neat at the same time...

review.coreboot Code Review - coreboot.git/tree - util/romcc/ edit / delete

Neat bit of software I wasn't previously aware of: coreboot includes a C compiler that doesn't use RAM at all, so that its RAM initialisation code can be written in C. About 25kLOC.
