<dt><code>Special Characters</code><dd>Assembler input is free format and may appear anywhere on the line.
|
|
One instruction may extend across multiple lines or more than one
|
|
instruction may appear on the same line. White space (space, tab,
|
|
comments or newline) may appear anywhere between tokens. A token must
|
|
not have embedded spaces. Tokens include numbers, register names,
|
|
keywords, user identifiers, and also some multicharacter special
|
|
symbols like "+=", "/*" or "||".
|
|
|
|
<p>Comments are introduced by the ‘<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>’ character and extend to the
|
|
end of the current line. If the ‘<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>’ appears as the first
|
|
character of a line, the whole line is treated as a comment, but in
|
|
this case the line can also be a logical line number directive
|
|
(see <a href="Comments.html#Comments">Comments</a>) or a preprocessor control command
|
|
(see <a href="Preprocessing.html#Preprocessing">Preprocessing</a>).
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Instruction Delimiting</code><dd>A semicolon must terminate every instruction. Sometimes a complete
|
|
instruction will consist of more than one operation. There are two
|
|
cases where this occurs. The first is when two general operations
|
|
are combined. Normally a comma separates the different parts, as in
|
|
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> a0= r3.h * r2.l, a1 = r3.l * r2.h ;
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>The second case occurs when a general instruction is combined with one
|
|
or two memory references for joint issue. The latter portions are
|
|
set off by a "||" token.
|
|
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> a0 = r3.h * r2.l || r1 = [p3++] || r4 = [i2++];
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>Multiple instructions can occur on the same line. Each must be
|
|
terminated by a semicolon character.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Register Names</code><dd>
|
|
The assembler treats register names and instruction keywords in a case
|
|
insensitive manner. User identifiers are case sensitive. Thus, R3.l,
|
|
R3.L, r3.l and r3.L are all equivalent input to the assembler.
|
|
|
|
<p>Register names are reserved and may not be used as program identifiers.
|
|
|
|
<p>Some operations (such as "Move Register") require a register pair.
|
|
Register pairs are always data registers and are denoted using a colon,
|
|
eg., R3:2. The larger number must be written firsts. Note that the
|
|
hardware only supports odd-even pairs, eg., R7:6, R5:4, R3:2, and R1:0.
|
|
|
|
<p>Some instructions (such as –SP (Push Multiple)) require a group of
|
|
adjacent registers. Adjacent registers are denoted in the syntax by
|
|
the range enclosed in parentheses and separated by a colon, eg., (R7:3).
|
|
Again, the larger number appears first.
|
|
|
|
<p>Portions of a particular register may be individually specified. This
|
|
is written with a dot (".") following the register name and then a
|
|
letter denoting the desired portion. For 32-bit registers, ".H"
|
|
denotes the most significant ("High") portion. ".L" denotes the
|
|
least-significant portion. The subdivisions of the 40-bit registers
|
|
are described later.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Accumulators</code><dd>The set of 40-bit registers A1 and A0 that normally contain data that
|
|
is being manipulated. Each accumulator can be accessed in four ways.
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><code>one 40-bit register</code><dd>The register will be referred to as A1 or A0.
|
|
<br><dt><code>one 32-bit register</code><dd>The registers are designated as A1.W or A0.W.
|
|
<br><dt><code>two 16-bit registers</code><dd>The registers are designated as A1.H, A1.L, A0.H or A0.L.
|
|
<br><dt><code>one 8-bit register</code><dd>The registers are designated as A1.X or A0.X for the bits that
|
|
extend beyond bit 31.
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Data Registers</code><dd>The set of 32-bit registers (R0, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and R7) that
|
|
normally contain data for manipulation. These are abbreviated as
|
|
D-register or Dreg. Data registers can be accessed as 32-bit registers
|
|
or as two independent 16-bit registers. The least significant 16 bits
|
|
of each register is called the "low" half and is designated with ".L"
|
|
following the register name. The most significant 16 bits are called
|
|
the "high" half and is designated with ".H" following the name.
|
|
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> R7.L, r2.h, r4.L, R0.H
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<br><dt><code>Pointer Registers</code><dd>The set of 32-bit registers (P0, P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, SP and FP) that
|
|
normally contain byte addresses of data structures. These are
|
|
abbreviated as P-register or Preg.
|
|
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> p2, p5, fp, sp
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<br><dt><code>Stack Pointer SP</code><dd>The stack pointer contains the 32-bit address of the last occupied
|
|
byte location in the stack. The stack grows by decrementing the
|
|
stack pointer.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Frame Pointer FP</code><dd>The frame pointer contains the 32-bit address of the previous frame
|
|
pointer in the stack. It is located at the top of a frame.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Loop Top</code><dd>LT0 and LT1. These registers contain the 32-bit address of the top of
|
|
a zero overhead loop.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Loop Count</code><dd>LC0 and LC1. These registers contain the 32-bit counter of the zero
|
|
overhead loop executions.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Loop Bottom</code><dd>LB0 and LB1. These registers contain the 32-bit address of the bottom
|
|
of a zero overhead loop.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Index Registers</code><dd>The set of 32-bit registers (I0, I1, I2, I3) that normally contain byte
|
|
addresses of data structures. Abbreviated I-register or Ireg.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Modify Registers</code><dd>The set of 32-bit registers (M0, M1, M2, M3) that normally contain
|
|
offset values that are added and subtracted to one of the index
|
|
registers. Abbreviated as Mreg.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Length Registers</code><dd>The set of 32-bit registers (L0, L1, L2, L3) that normally contain the
|
|
length in bytes of the circular buffer. Abbreviated as Lreg. Clear
|
|
the Lreg to disable circular addressing for the corresponding Ireg.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Base Registers</code><dd>The set of 32-bit registers (B0, B1, B2, B3) that normally contain the
|
|
base address in bytes of the circular buffer. Abbreviated as Breg.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Floating Point</code><dd>The Blackfin family has no hardware floating point but the .float
|
|
directive generates ieee floating point numbers for use with software
|
|
floating point libraries.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>Blackfin Opcodes</code><dd>For detailed information on the Blackfin machine instruction set, see
|
|
the Blackfin Processor Instruction Set Reference.
