Review: MIPS (RISC) Design Principles

Simplicity favors regularity




Smaller is faster




limited instruction set
limited number of registers in register file
limited number of addressing modes
Make the common case fast



fixed size instructions
small number of instruction formats
opcode always the first 6 bits
arithmetic operands from the register file (load-store machine)
allow instructions to contain immediate operands
Good design demands good compromises

three instruction formats
EI 209 Chapter 3.3
CSE, 2013
Specifying Branch Destinations

Use a register (like in lw and sw) added to the 16-bit offset

which register? Instruction Address Register (the PC)
- its use is automatically implied by instruction
- PC gets updated (PC+4) during the fetch cycle so that it holds the
address of the next instruction

limits the branch distance to -215 to +215-1 (word) instructions from
the (instruction after the) branch instruction, but most branches are
local anyway
from the low order 16 bits of the branch instruction

Dealing with Overflow

Overflow occurs when the result of an operation cannot
be represented in 32-bits, i.e., when the sign bit contains
a value bit of the result and not the proper sign bit


When adding operands with different signs or when subtracting
operands with the same sign, overflow can never occur

Divide Algorithm
Start
1. Subtract the Divisor register from the
Remainder register, and place the result in the
Remainder register.
Remainder >=0
2a. Shift the Quotient register to the left
setting the new rightmost bit to 1.
Test Remainder
Remainder < 0
2b. Restore the original value by adding the
Divisor reg to the Remainder reg and place the
sum in the Remainder reg. Also shift the Quotient
register to the left, setting the new LSB to 0
3. Shift the Divisor register right1 bit.

Goals for Floating Point

Standard arithmetic for reals for all computers
 Like two’s complement

Keep as much precision as possible in formats

Help programmer with errors in real arithmetic
 +∞, -∞, Not-A-Number (NaN), exponent overflow,
exponent underflow

Keep encoding that is somewhat compatible with two’s
complement
E.g., 0 in Fl. Pt. is 0 in two’s complement

Formats for both single and double precision
F is stored in normalized format where the msb in F is 1 (so there
is no need to store it!) – called the hidden bit
To simplify sorting FP numbers, E comes before F in the word and
E is represented in excess (biased) notation where the bias is -127
(-1023 for double precision) so the most negative is 00000001 =
21-127 = 2-126 and the most positive is 11111110 = 2254-127 = 2+127

Always round up (toward +∞)
Always round down (toward -∞)
Truncate
Round to nearest even (when the Guard || Round || Sticky are

Rounding (except for truncation) requires the hardware to
include extra F bits during calculations

Guard bit – used to provide one F bit when shifting left to normalize
a result (e.g., when normalizing F after division or subtraction)
Round bit – used to improve rounding accuracy
Sticky bit – used to support Round to nearest even; is set to a 1


Step 1: Align fractions by right shifting F2 by E1 - E2 positions
(assuming E1  E2) keeping track of (three of) the bits shifted out
in G R and S

Step 2: Add the resulting F2 to F1 to form F3

Step 3: Normalize F3 (so it is in the form 1.XXXXX …)
- If F1 and F2 have the same sign  F3 [1,4)  1 bit right shift F3
and increment E3 (check for overflow)
- If F1 and F2 have different signs  F3 may require many left shifts
each time decrementing E3 (check for underflow)

Step 4: Round F3 and possibly normalize F3 again

In this case the extra bits (G,R,S) are more than half of the least significant bit
(0).
Thus, the value is rounded up.

Step 1: Add the two (biased) exponents and subtract the bias
from the sum, so E1 + E2 – 127 = E3
also determine the sign of the product (which depends on the
sign of the operands (most significant bits))

Step 2: Multiply F1 by F2 to form a double precision F3

Step 3: Normalize F3 (so it is in the form 1.XXXXX …)
- Since F1 and F2 come in normalized  F3 [1,4)  1 bit right shift
