+# qbepy
+
+Python bindings for [QBE](https://c9x.me/compile/) (Quite Bare Engine), a minimalist compiler backend.
+
+QBE is a small, fast compiler backend that takes an SSA-based intermediate language (IL) and produces native machine code for multiple architectures. qbepy provides Python bindings via CFFI, allowing you to compile QBE IL directly from Python without spawning subprocesses.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Direct FFI bindings** - No subprocess overhead; QBE is compiled as a Python extension
+- **Multiple targets** - Supports amd64 (System V and Apple ABIs), ARM64, and RISC-V 64
+- **Pythonic IR builder** - Construct QBE IL programmatically with a clean API
+- **Error handling** - QBE errors are raised as Python exceptions
+- **Vendored QBE** - QBE source is included and built automatically during installation
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install qbepy
+# or
+uv add qbepy
+```
+
+Or from source:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/user/qbepy.git
+cd qbepy
+uv sync
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Compiling Raw IL
+
+```python
+import qbepy
+
+# QBE IL for a simple add function
+il = """
+export function w $add(w %a, w %b) {
+@start
+    %r =w add %a, %b
+    ret %r
+}
+"""
+
+# Compile to assembly
+asm = qbepy.compile_il(il)
+print(asm)
+```
+
+Output (ARM64 Apple):
+```asm
+.text
+.balign 4
+.globl _add
+_add:
+    hint    #34
+    stp     x29, x30, [sp, -16]!
+    mov     x29, sp
+    add     w0, w0, w1
+    ldp     x29, x30, [sp], 16
+    ret
+```
+
+### Using the IR Builder
+
+```python
+import qbepy
+from qbepy import Module, Function, DataDef, W, L
+from qbepy.ir import BinaryOp, Call, Return, Temporary, Global, IntConst
+
+# Create a module
+mod = Module()
+
+# Add a string constant
+mod.add_data(
+    DataDef("greeting")
+    .add_string("Hello, World!")
+    .add_bytes(0)  # null terminator
+)
+
+# Create main function
+func = Function("main", W, export=True)
+block = func.add_block("start")
+
+# Call puts($greeting)
+r = func.new_temp("r")
+block.instructions.append(
+    Call(Global("puts"), [(L, Global("greeting"))], r, W)
+)
+block.terminator = Return(IntConst(0))
+
+mod.add_function(func)
+
+# Compile to assembly
+asm = qbepy.compile_module(mod)
+print(asm)
+```
+
+### Specifying a Target
+
+```python
+# Compile for x86-64 System V ABI
+asm = qbepy.compile_il(il, target="amd64_sysv")
+
+# Or use the Compiler class
+compiler = qbepy.Compiler(target="arm64")
+asm = compiler.compile(il)
+
+# Available targets
+print(qbepy.Compiler.get_available_targets())
+# ['amd64_sysv', 'amd64_apple', 'arm64', 'arm64_apple', 'rv64']
+
+# Get default target for current platform
+print(qbepy.Compiler.get_default_target())
+# 'arm64_apple' (on Apple Silicon)
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### Compiler
+
+```python
+from qbepy import Compiler, compile_il, compile_module
+
+# Create a compiler instance
+compiler = Compiler(target=None)  # None = platform default
+
+# Compile IL string to assembly
+asm = compiler.compile(il_string)
+
+# Compile a Module object
+asm = compiler.compile_module(module)
+
+# Change target
+compiler.set_target("amd64_sysv")
+
+# Convenience functions
+asm = compile_il(il_string, target=None)
+asm = compile_module(module, target=None)
+```
+
+### Types
+
+```python
+from qbepy import W, L, S, D, BaseType, ExtType, AggregateType
+
+# Base types
+W  # word (32-bit integer)
+L  # long (64-bit integer)
+S  # single (32-bit float)
+D  # double (64-bit float)
+
+# Extended types (for memory operations)
+ExtType.BYTE, ExtType.HALF, ExtType.WORD, ExtType.LONG
+ExtType.SINGLE, ExtType.DOUBLE
+
+# Aggregate types (structs)
+point = AggregateType("point", [
+    (ExtType.WORD, 1),  # x: 1 word
+    (ExtType.WORD, 1),  # y: 1 word
+])
+```
+
+### Values
+
+```python
+from qbepy.ir import Temporary, Global, Label, IntConst, FloatConst
+
+Temporary("x")      # %x - SSA temporary
+Global("main")      # $main - global symbol
+Label("loop")       # @loop - block label
+IntConst(42)        # 42 - integer constant
+FloatConst(3.14)    # d_3.14 - double constant
+FloatConst(3.14, is_single=True)  # s_3.14 - float constant
+```
+

+
+Jump(Label("next"))                           # jmp @next

+
+# Function
+func = Function("name", return_type, params=[(W, "a"), (L, "b")], export=True)
+block = func.add_block("start")
+temp = func.new_temp("x")  # creates unique temporary
+
+# Block
+block.instructions.append(instruction)
+block.terminator = Return(value)
+
+# DataDef
+data = (DataDef("name", export=True, align=8)
+    .add_string("hello")
+    .add_bytes(0)
+    .add_words(1, 2, 3)
+    .add_longs(0x1234567890)
+    .add_zero(16))
+```
+
+## Supported Targets
+
+| Target | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `amd64_sysv` | x86-64 with System V ABI (Linux, BSD) |
+| `amd64_apple` | x86-64 with Apple ABI (macOS Intel) |
+| `arm64` | ARM64 with standard ABI (Linux) |

+
+## QBE IL Reference
+
+QBE uses a simple SSA-based intermediate language. For the complete specification, see the [QBE IL documentation](https://c9x.me/compile/doc/il.html).
+
+### Basic IL Structure
+
+```
+# Type definitions
+type :point = { w, w }
+
+# Data definitions
+data $message = { b "Hello", b 0 }
+
+# Function definitions
+export function w $main() {
+@start
+    %x =w copy 42
+    ret %x
+}
+```
+
+### IL Basics
+
+- Temporaries: `%name` (SSA values)
+- Globals: `$name` (functions and data)
+- Labels: `@name` (basic blocks)
+- Types: `w` (word), `l` (long), `s` (single), `d` (double)
+
+## Error Handling
+
+```python
+from qbepy import CompilationError, compile_il
+
+try:
+    asm = compile_il("invalid IL code")
+except CompilationError as e:
+    print(f"Compilation failed: {e}")
+```

+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+qbepy vendors the QBE compiler source and builds it as a Python extension using CFFI. The main challenge is that QBE's error handling uses `exit()`, which would terminate the Python process. qbepy solves this by:
+
+1. Redirecting QBE's `err()` function to a custom handler using preprocessor macros
+2. Using `setjmp`/`longjmp` to catch errors and return control to Python
+3. Converting errors to Python exceptions
+
+This allows QBE to be used as a library rather than a standalone compiler.
