// TODO(rsc): Describe prog.
// TODO(rsc): Describe TEXT/GLOBL flag in from3
// Prog describes a single machine instruction.
//
// The general instruction form is:
//
// As.Scond From, Reg, From3, To, RegTo2
//
// where As is an opcode and the others are arguments:
// From, Reg, From3 are sources, and To, RegTo2 are destinations.
// Usually, not all arguments are present.
// For example, MOVL R1, R2 encodes using only As=MOVL, From=R1, To=R2.
// The Scond field holds additional condition bits for systems (like arm)
// that have generalized conditional execution.
//
// Jump instructions use the Pcond field to point to the target instruction,
// which must be in the same linked list as the jump instruction.
//
// The Progs for a given function are arranged in a list linked through the Link field.
//
// Each Prog is charged to a specific source line in the debug information,
// specified by Lineno, an index into the line history (see LineHist).
// Every Prog has a Ctxt field that defines various context, including the current LineHist.
// Progs should be allocated using ctxt.NewProg(), not new(Prog).
//
// The other fields not yet mentioned are for use by the back ends and should
// be left zeroed by creators of Prog lists.
