Aske Simon Christensen 6a7d4e22b5 [vm/aot] Include entries for null in the dispatch table to avoid check.
NullCheck pc descriptors are added to all dispatch table calls where the
receiver may be null (and the selector is not one implemented by null).

All null entries in the table go to the NullError runtime entry, which
reads the NullCheck pc descriptor to get the name of the called member
for the error message.

Dart VM Compilation Pipeline

This folder contains Dart VM compilation pipeline.

Compilation pipeline is mainly responsible for converting AST or Kernel AST into IL flow graphs and then generating native code from IL.

It has the following structure:

Directory What goes there
assembler/ Assemblers and disassemblers
backend/ IL based compilation backend: optimization passes and architecture specific code generation rules
frontend/ Frontends responsible for converting AST into IL
jit/ JIT specific passes and compilation pipeline entry points
aot/ AOT specific passes and compilation pipeline entry points
. Shared code or code without clear designation.

Currently there are no layering restrictions and components from different subfolders can reference each other.
