CISC & RISC
•

•
CISC: complex instruction set computer
original CPUs very simple
poorly suited to evolving high level languages
extended with new instructions
– e.g. function calls, non-linear data structures, array bound
checking, string manipulation
• implemented in microcode
– sub-machine code for configuring CPU sub-components
– 1 machine code == > 1 microcode
• e.g. Intel X86 architecture
CISC & RISC
• CISC introduced integrated combinations of features
–
–
–
–
e.g. multiple address modes, conditional execution
required additional circuitry/power
multiple memory cycles per instruction
over elaborate/engineered
• many feature combinations not often used in practise
• could lead to loss of performance
• better to use combinations of simple instructions
CISC & RISC
• RISC: reduced instruction set computer
• return to simpler design
• general purpose instructions with small number of
common features
– less circuitry/power
– execute in single cycle
• code size grew
• performance improved
• e.g. ARM, MIPS
ARM
• Advanced RISC Machines
• UK company
• originally Acorn
– made best selling BBC Microcomputer in 1980s
• world leading niche processors
– 2009: 90% of all embedded processors
– mobile phones, media players, games, peripherals etc
– e.g. Nokia, iPod, iPad, Blackberry, Nintendo
ARM
• 32 bit RISC processor architecture family
• many variants
• general reference in library:
– W. Hohl, ARM Assembly Language, CRC Press, 2009
– ARM7TDMI
• ARM does not make chips
• licences the IP core (intellectual property) logic
design to chip manufacturers
Cortex-M3
• ARM CPU in STM32-Discovery board
• Thumb2 instruction set

Memory
• linear addressing
• 2 descending stacks
– main stack
– process stack – used by OS
• all operations based on registers
• must move data between registers & memory
Registers
• 16 * 32 bit registers
• working registers
– R0-R7 – low registers
– R8-R12 – high registers
• R13 – stack pointer (SP)
• R14 - link register (LR)
• R15 – program counter (PC)
• PSR – program status register
– bits for negative (N), zero (Z), carry (C), overflow (V)
Data formats
• word
– 32 bits
– long
• half word
– 16 bits
– int
• byte
– 8 bits
– char
Programming approach
• in high level programming:
– identify variables & types
– compiler maps these to memory & data representation
– use of memory v registers invisible
• in low level programming
– must make explicit use of memory & registers
– must choose data representation
• registers much faster than memory
• try to map variables to registers
• what if more variables than registers...?
Example: sum of 1st 10 integers
• we write:
• C compiler generates:
#define MAX 11
int s;
int n;
n = 0;
while(n<MAX)
{ s = s+n;
n = n+1;
}

Example: sum of 1st 10 integers
• we write:

#define MAX 11
int s;
int n;
n = 0;
while(n<MAX)
{ s = s+n;

LOOP
Example: sum of first 10 integers
• s == r2 - register 2
• n == r1 – register 1
MOVS
r2,#0x00
• move hexadecimal constant 0x00 to register 2
• set condition code flags
MOVS
r1,#0x00
• move hexadecimal constant 0x00 to register 2
• set condition code flags
B
TEST
• branch to label TEST
Example: sum of first 10 integers
LOOP ADD
r2,r2,r1
• label LOOP
• put in r2 sum of r2 and r1
ADDS
r1,r1,#1
• put in r1 sum of r1 and decimal constant #1
• set condition code flags
Example: sum of first 10 integers
TEST CMP
r1,#0x0A
• label TEST
• compare r1 and hexadecimal constant #0x0A == 10
• set condition code flags
BLT
LOOP
• branch to label LOOP if flags indicate “less than”
Instruction format
mnemonic operands
– general format
– operands depend on instruction
mnemonic
– meaningful short form
– reminds us what instruction does
• ARM uses {...} for options
• Rd or Rm == register -r0..r15
Operands
• first operand usually rd
• Operand2 == flexible 2nd operand
– constant
– Rm
• constant == 8 hexadecimal digits
• constant == decimal
– size of decimal depends on instruction
• #imm16 == 0-65535 == 16 bit
MOV: move
MOV Rd, Operand2 
Rd = Operand2
• don’t update condition code flags
MOVS Rd, Operand2
• as MOV but update condition code flags
MOV Rd, #imm16 
Rd = imm16
ADD: addition
ADD Rd, Rn, Operand2  Rd = Rn+Operand2
ADD Rn, Operand2  Rn = Rn+Operand2
ADDC
• add with carry
• like ADD + carry flag
ADDS/ADDCS
• like ADD/ADDC but set condition code flags
SUB: subtraction
SUB Rd, Rn, Operand2  Rd = Rn-Operand2
SUB Rn, Operand2  Rn = Rn-Operand2
SUBC
• subtract with carry
• like SUB -1 if carry flag not set
SUBS/SUBCS
• like SUB/SUBC but set condition code flags
CMP: compare
CMP Rn, Operand2
• subtract Operand2 from Rn BUT ...
• ... do not modify Rn
– otherwise same as SUBS
• update Z, N, C, V flags
CMN RN, Operand2
• add Operand2 to Rn BUT ...
• ... do not modify Rn
• otherwise same as ADDS
• update Z, N, C, V flags
Flags
• N – 1 if result <0; 0 otherwise
• Z – 1 if result =0; 0 otherwise
• C – 1 if result led to carry; 0 otherwise
– i.e. X+Y > 232
– i.e. X-Y >= 0
Flags
• V – 1 if result led to overflow; 0 otherwise
• (-) == negative
• (+) == positive
– i.e. (-)X+(-)Y > 0
– i.e. (+)X+(+)Y < 0
– i.e. (-)X-(+)Y > 0
– i.e. (+X)-(-Y) < 0
B: branch
B label
• branch to label
• i.e. reset PC to address for label
Bcond label
• branch on condition to label

NE == not equal
CS/HS == carry set/ higher or same - unsigned

cond
Label
• identifier
• can precede any line of assembler
• represents the address of:
– instruction
– literal data
• relative to program counter (PC)
• turned into PC + offset in machine code
NOP: no operation
NOP
• do nothing
• use for padding/layout
• no cost
Layout
• ARM assembly language is layout sensitive
• must precede instruction with a tab
• for labelled instruction, use tab immediately after
label
• can’t use equivalent number of spaces
Example: multiply by adding
• m == x*y
int x;
int y;
int m;
x = 8;
y = 10;
m = 0;
while(y!=0)
{ m = m+x;
y = y-1;
}
• x == R1; y == R2; m == R3
MOV R1,#0x08
MOV R2,#0x0A
MOV R3,#0x00
LOOP CMP R2,#0x00
BEQ DONE
ADD R3,R1
SUB R2,#0x01
B LOOP
