INTRODUCTION
Samsung's S3C3410X 16/32-bit RISC microcontroller is a cost-effective and high-performance microcontroller solution for PDA and general purpose application.
An outstanding feature of the S3C3410X is its CPU core, a 16/32-bit RISC processor(ARM7TDMI) designed by Advanced RISC Machines, Ltd. The ARM7TDMI core is a low-power, general purpose, microprocessor macro­cell, which was developed for the use in application-specific and customer-specific integrated circuits. Its simple, elegant, and fully static design is particularly suitable for cost-sensitive and power-sensitive application.
The S3C3410X has been developed by using the ARM7TDMI core, CMOS standard cell, and a data path compiler. Most of the on-chip function blocks have been designed using an HDL synthesizer. The S3C3410X has been fully verified in SAMSUNG ASIC test environment including the internal Qualification Assurance Process.
By providing a complete set of common system peripherals, the S3C3410X can minimize the overall system cost and eliminates the need to configure additional components, externally.

BUS CONTROLLER
TEST[1:0] I The TEST[1:0] can configure the data bus size for bank 0 in normal or MDS mode.
The normal mode is for CPU to start its operation by fetching the instruction from external memory. The MDS mode is for CPU to be debugged by the external Emulator, EmbeddedICE, etc. 00 = Normal mode with 8-bit data bus size for bank 0 access. 01 = Normal mode with 16-bit data bus size for bank 0 access. 10 = MDS mode with 8-bit data bus size for bank 0 access.
11 = MDS mode with 16-bit data bus size for bank 0 access. A[23:0] O A[23:0] (address bus) generate the address when external memory access. D[15:0] I/O D[15:0] (Data bus) input the data during memory read and output the data during
memory write. The data bus width can be programmable for 8-bit or 16-bit by the
BANKCONx register option. nCS[7:0] O nCS[7:0] (Chip Select) selectively generate the chip select signal of each bank when
the external memory access address is within the address range of each bank. The
number of access cycle and the bank size can be programmable by the BANKCONx
register option. nECS[1:0] O nECS[1:0] (External Chip Select) generate the external chip select signal for the
extra device (External I/O device). nOE O nOE (Output Enable) indicates that the current bus cycle is a read cycle. nWE O nWE (Write Enable for x16 SRAM or SDRAM) indicates that the current bus cycle is
a write cycle. To support the byte write to external memory, the byte to be accessed
can be determined by nBE[1:0], which is the selection on upper byte or lower byte.
For example, in case of 16-bit SRAM, nBE[1:0] should play it role as UB(Upper
Byte)/LB(Lower Byte) to select the upper byte or lower byte. In case of SDRAM,
nWBE[1:0] should play it role as DQM[1:0] to select the upper byte or lower byte. For
16-bit access, not 8-bit access, both nWBE[1:0] should be activated at same time. In
certain case, no more byte access is needed. For example, x16 Flash Memory does
not need byte access through 16-bit bus when user need the programming in the
flash memory. In this case, please use nWBE[0] instead of nWE to indicate that the
current bus cycle is a write cycle. Summarizing, nWE should be used to indicate the
write bus cycle in case of x16 SRAM and x16/x8 SDRAM. In case of x16 with two x8
SRAM, nWBE[0] and nWBE[1] should be connected to the WE of SRAM,
respectively. For more detail information, please refer the chapter 4. nWBE[1:0] O nWBE[1:0] (Write Byte Enable). In case of Flash or ROM access, nWBE[0] should
be connected to the WE of memory. For the access to the non-volatile memory, we
do not need the selection on bytes because the 8-bit write cycle via 16-bit bus is no
more necessary. To program the data into the non-volatile memory, we should
always use the 16-bit access. In this configuration, please use nWBE[0] instead of
nWE to indicate that the current bus cycle is a write cycle. Summarizing, nWBE[0]
should be used to indicate the current write bus cycle in case of x8 SRAM, x8/x16
ROM, EDODRAM or Flash memory. For more detail information, please refer the
chapter 4.

S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR PROGRAMMER'S MODEL
2 PROGRAMMER'S MODEL
OVERVIEW
S3C3410X was developed using the advanced ARM7TDMI core designed by Advanced RISC Machines, Ltd. ARM7TDMI supports big-endian and little-endian memory formats, but the S3C3410X supports only the big­endian memory format.
PROCESSOR OPERATING STATES
From the programmer's point of view, the ARM7TDMI can be in one of two states:
ARM state which executes 32-bit, word-aligned ARM instructions.
THUMB state which operates with 16-bit, halfword-aligned THUMB instructions. In this state, the PC uses bit
1 to select between alternate halfwords.
NOTE
Transition between these two states does not affect the processor mode or the contents of the registers.
SWITCHING STATE Entering THUMB State
Entry into THUMB state can be achieved by executing a BX instruction with the state bit (bit 0) set in the operand register.
Transition to THUMB state will also occur automatically on return from an exception (IRQ, FIQ, UNDEF, ABORT, SWI etc.), if the exception was entered with the processor in THUMB state.
Entering ARM State
Entry into ARM state happens:
On execution of the BX instruction with the state bit clear in the operand register.
On the processor taking an exception (IRQ, FIQ, RESET, UNDEF, ABORT, SWI etc.). In this case, the PC is
placed in the exception mode's link register, and execution commences at the exception's vector address.
MEMORY FORMATS
ARM7TDMI views memory as a linear collection of bytes numbered upwards from zero. Bytes 0 to 3 hold the first stored word, bytes 4 to 7 the second and so on. ARM7TDMI can treat words in memory as being stored either in Big-Endian or Little-Endian format.
2-1
PROGRAMMER'S MODEL S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
BIG-ENDIAN FORMAT
In Big-Endian format, the most significant byte of a word is stored at the lowest numbered byte and the least significant byte at the highest numbered byte. Byte 0 of the memory system is therefore connected to data lines 31 through 24.
Higher Address
Lower Address
31 8

Figure 2-1. Big-Endian Addresses of Bytes within Words
LITTLE-ENDIAN FORMAT
In Little-Endian format, the lowest numbered byte in a word is considered the word's least significant byte, and the highest numbered byte the most significant. Byte 0 of the memory system is therefore connected to data lines 7 through 0.

INSTRUCTION LENGTH
Instructions are either 32 bits long (in ARM state) or 16 bits long (in THUMB state).
Data Types
ARM7TDMI supports byte (8-bit), halfword (16-bit) and word (32-bit) data types. Words must be aligned to four­byte boundaries and half words to two-byte boundaries.
2-2
S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR PROGRAMMER'S MODEL
OPERATING MODES
ARM7TDMI supports seven modes of operation:
User (usr): The normal ARM program execution state
FIQ (fiq): Designed to support a data transfer or channel process
IRQ (irq): Used for general-purpose interrupt handling
Supervisor (svc): Protected mode for the operating system
Abort mode (abt): Entered after a data or instruction prefetch abort
System (sys): A privileged user mode for the operating system
Undefined (und): Entered when an undefined instruction is executed
Mode changes may be made under software control, or may be brought about by external interrupts or exception processing. Most application programs will execute in User mode. The non-user modes' known as privileged modes-are entered in order to service interrupts or exceptions, or to access protected resources.
REGISTERS
ARM7TDMI has a total of 37 registers - 31 general-purpose 32-bit registers and six status registers - but these cannot all be seen at once. The processor state and operating mode dictate which registers are available to the programmer.
The ARM State Register Set
In ARM state, 16 general registers and one or two status registers are visible at any one time. In privileged (non­User) modes, mode-specific banked registers are switched in. Figure 2-3 shows which registers are available in each mode: the banked registers are marked with a shaded triangle.
The ARM state register set contains 16 directly accessible registers: R0 to R15. All of these except R15 are general-purpose, and may be used to hold either data or address values. In addition to these, there is a seventeenth register used to store status information.
Register 14 is used as the subroutine link register. This receives a copy of R15 when a Branch
and Link (BL) instruction is executed. At all other times it may be treated as a general-purpose register. The corresponding banked registers R14_svc, R14_irq, R14_fiq, R14_abt and R14_und are similarly used to hold the return values of R15 when interrupts and exceptions arise, or when Branch and Link instructions are executed within interrupt or exception routines.
Register 15 holds the Program Counter (PC). In ARM state, bits [1:0] of R15 are zero and bits
[31:2] contain the PC. In THUMB state, bit [0] is zero and bits [31:1] contain the PC.
Register 16 is the CPSR (Current Program Status Register). This contains condition code flags
and the current mode bits.
FIQ mode has seven banked registers mapped to R8-14 (R8_fiq-R14_fiq). In ARM state, many FIQ handlers do not need to save any registers. User, IRQ, Supervisor, Abort and Undefined each have two banked registers mapped to R13 and R14, allowing each of these modes to have a private stack pointer and link registers.

The THUMB State Register Set
The THUMB state register set is a subset of the ARM state set. The programmer has direct access to eight general registers, R0-R7, as well as the Program Counter (PC), a stack pointer register (SP), a link register (LR), and the CPSR. There are banked Stack Pointers, Link Registers and Saved Process Status Registers (SPSRs) for each privileged mode. This is shown in Figure 2-4.

The relationship between ARM and THUMB state registers
The THUMB state registers relate to the ARM state registers in the following way:
THUMB state R0-R7 and ARM state R0-R7 are identical
THUMB state CPSR and SPSRs and ARM state CPSR and SPSRs are identical
THUMB state SP maps onto ARM state R13
THUMB state LR maps onto ARM state R14
The THUMB state Program Counter maps onto the ARM state Program Counter (R15)
This relationship is shown in Figure 2-5.

Accessing Hi-Registers in THUMB State
In THUMB state, registers R8-R15 (the Hi registers) are not part of the standard register set. However, the assembly language programmer has limited access to them, and can use them for fast temporary storage.
A value may be transferred from a register in the range R0-R7 (a Lo register) to a Hi register, and from a Hi register to a Lo register, using special variants of the MOV instruction. Hi register values can also be compared against or added to Lo register values with the CMP and ADD instructions. For more information, refer to Figure 3-34.
THE PROGRAM STATUS REGISTERS
The ARM7TDMI contains a Current Program Status Register (CPSR), plus five Saved Program Status Registers (SPSRs) for use by exception handlers. These register's functions are:
Hold information about the most recently performed ALU operation
Control the enabling and disabling of interrupts
Set the processor operating mode
The arrangement of bits is shown in Figure 2-6.

The Condition Code Flags
The N, Z, C and V bits are the condition code flags. These may be changed as a result of arithmetic and logical operations, and may be tested to determine whether an instruction should be executed.
In ARM state, all instructions may be executed conditionally: see Table 3-2 for details. In THUMB state, only the Branch instruction is capable of conditional execution: see Figure 3-46 for details.
The Control Bits
The bottom 8 bits of a PSR (incorporating I, F, T and M[4:0]) are known collectively as the control bits. These will be changed when an exception arises. If the processor is operating in a privileged mode, they can also be manipulated by software.
The T bit
This reflects the operating state. When this bit is set, the processor is executing in THUMB state, otherwise it is executing in ARM state. This is reflected on the TBIT external signal.
Note that the software must never change the state of the TBIT in the CPSR. If this happens, the processor will enter an unpredictable state.
Interrupt disable bits
The I and F bits are the interrupt disable bits. When set, these disable the IRQ and FIQ interrupts respectively.
The mode bits
The M4, M3, M2, M1 and M0 bits (M[4:0]) are the mode bits. These determine the processor's operating mode, as shown in Table 2-1. Not all combinations of the mode bits define a valid processor mode. Only those explicitly described shall be used. The user should be aware that if any illegal value is programmed into the mode bits, M[4:0], then the processor will enter an unrecoverable state. If this occurs, reset should be applied.
Reserved bits The remaining bits in the PSRs are reserved. When changing a PSR's flag or control bits,
you must ensure that these unused bits are not altered. Also, your program should not rely on them containing specific values, since in future processors they may read as one or zero.

PROGRAMMER'S MODEL S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
EXCEPTIONS
Exceptions arise whenever the normal flow of a program has to be halted temporarily, for example to service an interrupt from a peripheral. Before an exception can be handled, the current processor state must be preserved so that the original program can resume when the handler routine has finished.
It is possible for several exceptions to arise at the same time. If this happens, they are dealt with in a fixed order. See Exception Priorities on page 2-14.
Action on Entering an Exception
When handling an exception, the ARM7TDMI:
1. Preserves the address of the next instruction in the appropriate Link Register. If the exception has been entered from ARM state, then the address of the next instruction is copied into the Link Register (that is, current PC + 4 or PC + 8 depending on the exception. See Table 2-2 on for details). If the exception has been entered from THUMB state, then the value written into the Link Register is the current PC offset by a value such that the program resumes from the correct place on return from the exception. This means that the exception handler need not determine which state the exception was entered from. For example, in the case of SWI, MOVS PC, R14_svc will always return to the next instruction regardless of whether the SWI was executed in ARM or THUMB state.
2. Copies the CPSR into the appropriate SPSR
3. Forces the CPSR mode bits to a value which depends on the exception
4. Forces the PC to fetch the next instruction from the relevant exception vector
It may also set the interrupt disable flags to prevent otherwise unmanageable nestings of exceptions. If the processor is in THUMB state when an exception occurs, it will automatically switch into ARM state when the
PC is loaded with the exception vector address.
Action on Leaving an Exception
On completion, the exception handler:
1. Moves the Link Register, minus an offset where appropriate, to the PC. (The offset will vary depending on the type of exception.)
2. Copies the SPSR back to the CPSR
3. Clears the interrupt disable flags, if they were set on entry
NOTE
An explicit switch back to THUMB state is never needed, since restoring the CPSR from the SPSR automatically sets the T bit to the value it held immediately prior to the exception.

Exception Entry/Exit Summary
Table 2-2 summarises the PC value preserved in the relevant R14 on exception entry, and the recommended instruction for exiting the exception handler.

NOTES:
1. Where PC is the address of the BL/SWI/Undefined Instruction fetch which had the prefetch abort.
2. Where PC is the address of the instruction which did not get executed since the FIQ or IRQ took priority.
3. Where PC is the address of the Load or Store instruction which generated the data abort.
4. The value saved in R14_svc upon reset is unpredictable.
FIQ
The FIQ (Fast Interrupt Request) exception is designed to support a data transfer or channel process, and in ARM state has sufficient private registers to remove the need for register saving (thus minimising the overhead of context switching).
FIQ is externally generated by taking the nFIQ input LOW. This input can except either synchronous or asynchronous transitions, depending on the state of the ISYNC input signal. When ISYNC is LOW, nFIQ and nIRQ are considered asynchronous, and a cycle delay for synchronization is incurred before the interrupt can affect the processor flow.
Irrespective of whether the exception was entered from ARM or Thumb state, a FIQ handler should leave the interrupt by executing
SUBS PC,R14_fiq,#4
FIQ may be disabled by setting the CPSR's F flag (but note that this is not possible from User mode). If the F flag is clear, ARM7TDMI checks for a LOW level on the output of the FIQ synchroniser at the end of each instruction.
2-11
PROGRAMMER'S MODEL S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
IRQ
The IRQ (Interrupt Request) exception is a normal interrupt caused by a LOW level on the nIRQ input. IRQ has a lower priority than FIQ and is masked out when a FIQ sequence is entered. It may be disabled at any time by setting the I bit in the CPSR, though this can only be done from a privileged (non-User) mode.
Irrespective of whether the exception was entered from ARM or Thumb state, an IRQ handler should return from the interrupt by executing
SUBS PC,R14_irq,#4
Abort
An abort indicates that the current memory access cannot be completed. It can be signalled by the external ABORT input. ARM7TDMI checks for the abort exception during memory access cycles.
There are two types of abort:
Prefetch abort: occurs during an instruction prefetch.
Data abort: occurs during a data access.
If a prefetch abort occurs, the prefetched instruction is marked as invalid, but the exception will not be taken until the instruction reaches the head of the pipeline. If the instruction is not executed - for example because a branch occurs while it is in the pipeline - the abort does not take place.
If a data abort occurs, the action taken depends on the instruction type:
Single data transfer instructions (LDR, STR) write back modified base registers: the Abort handler must be
aware of this.
The swap instruction (SWP) is aborted as though it had not been executed.
Block data transfer instructions (LDM, STM) complete. If write-back is set, the base is updated. If the
instruction would have overwritten the base with data (ie it has the base in the transfer list), the overwriting is prevented. All register overwriting is prevented after an abort is indicated, which means in particular that R15 (always the last register to be transferred) is preserved in an aborted LDM instruction.
The abort mechanism allows the implementation of a demand paged virtual memory system. In such a system the processor is allowed to generate arbitrary addresses. When the data at an address is unavailable, the Memory Management Unit (MMU) signals an abort. The abort handler must then work out the cause of the abort, make the requested data available, and retry the aborted instruction. The application program needs no knowledge of the amount of memory available to it, nor is its state in any way affected by the abort.
After fixing the reason for the abort, the handler should execute the following irrespective of the state (ARM or Thumb):
SUBS PC,R14_abt,#4 ; for a prefetch abort, or SUBS PC,R14_abt,#8 ; for a data abort
This restores both the PC and the CPSR, and retries the aborted instruction.
2-12
S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR PROGRAMMER'S MODEL
Software Interrupt
The software interrupt instruction (SWI) is used for entering Supervisor mode, usually to request a particular supervisor function. A SWI handler should return by executing the following irrespective of the state (ARM or Thumb):
MOV PC,R14_svc
This restores the PC and CPSR, and returns to the instruction following the SWI.
NOTE
nFIQ, nIRQ, ISYNC, LOCK, BIGEND, and ABORT pins exist only in the ARM7TDMI CPU core.
Undefined Instruction
When ARM7TDMI comes across an instruction which it cannot handle, it takes the undefined instruction trap. This mechanism may be used to extend either the THUMB or ARM instruction set by software emulation.
After emulating the failed instruction, the trap handler should execute the following irrespective of the state (ARM or Thumb):
MOVS PC,R14_und
This restores the CPSR and returns to the instruction following the undefined instruction.
Exception Vectors
The following table shows the exception vector addresses.
Table 2-3. Exception Vectors

0x0000001C FIQ FIQ
2-13
PROGRAMMER'S MODEL S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
Exception Priorites
When multiple exceptions arise at the same time, a fixed priority system determines the order in which they are handled:
Highest priority:
1. Reset
2. Data abort
3. FIQ
4. IRQ
5. Prefetch abort
Lowest priority:
6. Undefined Instruction, Software interrupt.
Not All Exceptions Can Occur at Once:
Undefined Instruction and Software Interrupt are mutually exclusive, since they each correspond to particular (non-overlapping) decodings of the current instruction.
If a data abort occurs at the same time as a FIQ, and FIQs are enabled (ie the CPSR's F flag is clear), ARM7TDMI enters the data abort handler and then immediately proceeds to the FIQ vector. A normal return from FIQ will cause the data abort handler to resume execution. Placing data abort at a higher priority than FIQ is necessary to ensure that the transfer error does not escape detection. The time for this exception entry should be added to worst-case FIQ latency calculations.
2-14
S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR PROGRAMMER'S MODEL
INTERRUPT LATENCIES
The worst case latency for FIQ, assuming that it is enabled, consists of the longest time the request can take to pass through the synchroniser (Tsyncmax if asynchronous), plus the time for the longest instruction to complete (Tldm, the longest instruction is an LDM which loads all the registers including the PC), plus the time for the data abort entry (Texc), plus the time for FIQ entry (Tfiq). At the end of this time ARM7TDMI will be executing the instruction at 0x1C.
Tsyncmax is 3 processor cycles, Tldm is 20 cycles, Texc is 3 cycles, and Tfiq is 2 cycles. The total time is therefore 28 processor cycles. This is just over 1.4 microseconds in a system which uses a continuous 20 MHz processor clock. The maximum IRQ latency calculation is similar, but must allow for the fact that FIQ has higher priority and could delay entry into the IRQ handling routine for an arbitrary length of time. The minimum latency for FIQ or IRQ consists of the shortest time the request can take through the synchroniser (Tsyncmin) plus Tfiq. This is 4 processor cycles.
RESET
When the RESETRESET signal goes LOW, ARM7TDMI abandons the executing instruction and then continues to fetch instructions from incrementing word addresses.
When RESETRESET goes HIGH again, ARM7TDMI:
1. Overwrites R14_svc and SPSR_svc by copying the current values of the PC and CPSR into them. The value of the saved PC and SPSR is not defined.
2. Forces M[4:0] to 10011 (Supervisor mode), sets the I and F bits in the CPSR, and clears the CPSR's T bit.
3. Forces the PC to fetch the next instruction from address 0x00.
4. Execution resumes in ARM state.

ARM INSTRUCTION SET S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
THE CONDITION FIELD
In ARM state, all instructions are conditionally executed according to the state of the CPSR condition codes and the instruction's condition field. This field (bits 31:28) determines the circumstances under which an instruction is to be executed. If the state of the C, N, Z and V flags fulfils the conditions encoded by the field, the instruction is executed, otherwise it is ignored.
There are sixteen possible conditions, each represented by a two-character suffix that can be appended to the instruction's mnemonic. For example, a Branch (B in assembly language) becomes BEQ for "Branch if Equal", which means the Branch will only be taken if the Z flag is set.
In practice, fifteen different conditions may be used: these are listed in Table 3-2. The sixteenth (1111) is reserved, and must not be used.
In the absence of a suffix, the condition field of most instructions is set to "Always" (suffix AL). This means the instruction will always be executed regardless of the CPSR condition codes.

BRANCH AND EXCHANGE (BX)
This instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. This instruction performs a branch by copying the contents of a general register, Rn, into the program counter,
PC. The branch causes a pipeline flush and refill from the address specified by Rn. This instruction also permits the instruction set to be exchanged. When the instruction is executed, the value of Rn[0] determines whether the instruction stream will be decoded as ARM or THUMB instructions.

Figure 3-3. Branch Instructions
Branch instructions contain a signed 2's complement 24 bit offset. This is shifted left two bits, sign extended to 32 bits, and added to the PC. The instruction can therefore specify a branch of +/– 32Mbytes. The branch offset must take account of the prefetch operation, which causes the PC to be 2 words (8 bytes) ahead of the current instruction.
Branches beyond +/– 32Mbytes must use an offset or absolute destination which has been previously loaded into a register. In this case the PC should be manually saved in R14 if a Branch with Link type operation is required.
THE LINK BIT
Branch with Link (BL) writes the old PC into the link register (R14) of the current bank. The PC value written into R14 is adjusted to allow for the prefetch, and contains the address of the instruction following the branch and link instruction. Note that the CPSR is not saved with the PC and R14[1:0] are always cleared.
To return from a routine called by Branch with Link use MOV PC,R14 if the link register is still valid or LDM Rn!,{..PC} if the link register has been saved onto a stack pointed to by Rn.
INSTRUCTION CYCLE TIMES
Branch and Branch with Link instructions take 2S + 1N incremental cycles, where S and N are defined as sequential (S-cycle) and internal (I-cycle).

ARM INSTRUCTION SET S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
The instruction produces a result by performing a specified arithmetic or logical operation on one or two operands. The first operand is always a register (Rn).
The second operand may be a shifted register (Rm) or a rotated 8 bit immediate value (Imm) according to the value of the I bit in the instruction. The condition codes in the CPSR may be preserved or updated as a result of this instruction, according to the value of the S bit in the instruction.
Certain operations (TST, TEQ, CMP, CMN) do not write the result to Rd. They are used only to perform tests and to set the condition codes on the result and always have the S bit set. The instructions and their effects are listed in Table 3-3.

CPSR FLAGS
The data processing operations may be classified as logical or arithmetic. The logical operations (AND, EOR, TST, TEQ, ORR, MOV, BIC, MVN) perform the logical action on all corresponding bits of the operand or operands to produce the result. If the S bit is set (and Rd is not R15, see below) the V flag in the CPSR will be unaffected, the C flag will be set to the carry out from the barrel shifter (or preserved when the shift operation is LSL #0), the Z flag will be set if and only if the result is all zeros, and the N flag will be set to the logical value of bit 31 of the result.

BIC 1110 Operand1 AND NOT operand2 (Bit clear)
MVN 1111 NOT operand2 (operand1 is ignored)
The arithmetic operations (SUB, RSB, ADD, ADC, SBC, RSC, CMP, CMN) treat each operand as a 32 bit integer (either unsigned or 2's complement signed, the two are equivalent). If the S bit is set (and Rd is not R15) the V flag in the CPSR will be set if an overflow occurs into bit 31 of the result; this may be ignored if the operands were considered unsigned, but warns of a possible error if the operands were 2's complement signed. The C flag will be set to the carry out of bit 31 of the ALU, the Z flag will be set if and only if the result was zero, and the N flag will be set to the value of bit 31 of the result (indicating a negative result if the operands are considered to be 2's complement signed).

SHIFTS
When the second operand is specified to be a shifted register, the operation of the barrel shifter is controlled by the Shift field in the instruction. This field indicates the type of shift to be performed (logical left or right, arithmetic right or rotate right). The amount by which the register should be shifted may be contained in an immediate field in the instruction, or in the bottom byte of another register (other than R15). The encoding for the different shift types is shown in Figure 3-5.

Instruction specified shift amount
When the shift amount is specified in the instruction, it is contained in a 5 bit field which may take any value from 0 to 31. A logical shift left (LSL) takes the contents of Rm and moves each bit by the specified amount to a more significant position. The least significant bits of the result are filled with zeros, and the high bits of Rm which do not map into the result are discarded, except that the least significant discarded bit becomes the shifter carry output which may be latched into the C bit of the CPSR when the ALU operation is in the logical class (see above). For example, the effect of LSL #5 is shown in Figure 3-6.

NOTE
LSL #0 is a special case, where the shifter carry out is the old value of the CPSR C flag. The contents of Rm are used directly as the second operand. A logical shift right (LSR) is similar, but the contents of Rm are moved to less significant positions in the result. LSR #5 has the effect shown in Figure 3-7.

The form of the shift field which might be expected to correspond to LSR #0 is used to encode LSR #32, which has a zero result with bit 31 of Rm as the carry output. Logical shift right zero is redundant as it is the same as logical shift left zero, so the assembler will convert LSR #0 (and ASR #0 and ROR #0) into LSL #0, and allow LSR #32 to be specified.
An arithmetic shift right (ASR) is similar to logical shift right, except that the high bits are filled with bit 31 of Rm instead of zeros. This preserves the sign in 2's complement notation. For example, ASR #5 is shown in Figure 3-8.

Rotate right (ROR) operations reuse the bits which "overshoot" in a logical shift right operation by reintroducing them at the high end of the result, in place of the zeros used to fill the high end in logical right operations. For example, ROR #5 is shown in Figure 3-9.

Register specified shift amount
Only the least significant byte of the contents of Rs is used to determine the shift amount. Rs can be any general register other than R15.
If this byte is zero, the unchanged contents of Rm will be used as the second operand, and the old value of the CPSR C flag will be passed on as the shifter carry output.
If the byte has a value between 1 and 31, the shifted result will exactly match that of an instruction specified shift with the same value and shift operation.
If the value in the byte is 32 or more, the result will be a logical extension of the shift described above:
1. LSL by 32 has result zero, carry out equal to bit 0 of Rm.
2. LSL by more than 32 has result zero, carry out zero.
3. LSR by 32 has result zero, carry out equal to bit 31 of Rm.
4. LSR by more than 32 has result zero, carry out zero.
5. ASR by 32 or more has result filled with and carry out equal to bit 31 of Rm.
6. ROR by 32 has result equal to Rm, carry out equal to bit 31 of Rm.
7. ROR by n where n is greater than 32 will give the same result and carry out as ROR by n-32; therefore repeatedly subtract 32 from n until the amount is in the range 1 to 32 and see above.
NOTE
The zero in bit 7 of an instruction with a register controlled shift is compulsory; a one in this bit will cause the instruction to be a multiply or undefined instruction.
3-15
ARM INSTRUCTION SET S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
IMMEDIATE OPERAND ROTATES
The immediate operand rotate field is a 4 bit unsigned integer which specifies a shift operation on the 8 bit immediate value. This value is zero extended to 32 bits, and then subject to a rotate right by twice the value in the rotate field. This enables many common constants to be generated, for example all powers of 2.
WRITING TO R15
When Rd is a register other than R15, the condition code flags in the CPSR may be updated from the ALU flags as described above.
When Rd is R15 and the S flag in the instruction is not set the result of the operation is placed in R15 and the CPSR is unaffected.
When Rd is R15 and the S flag is set the result of the operation is placed in R15 and the SPSR corresponding to the current mode is moved to the CPSR. This allows state changes which atomically restore both PC and CPSR. This form of instruction should not be used in User mode.
USING R15 AS AN OPERANDY
If R15 (the PC) is used as an operand in a data processing instruction the register is used directly. The PC value will be the address of the instruction, plus 8 or 12 bytes due to instruction prefetching. If the shift
amount is specified in the instruction, the PC will be 8 bytes ahead. If a register is used to specify the shift amount the PC will be 12 bytes ahead.
TEQ, TST, CMP AND CMN OPCODES
NOTE
TEQ, TST, CMP and CMN do not write the result of their operation but do set flags in the CPSR. An assembler should always set the S flag for these instructions even if this is not specified in the mnemonic.
The TEQP form of the TEQ instruction used in earlier ARM processors must not be used: the PSR transfer operations should be used instead.
The action of TEQP in the ARM7TDMI is to move SPSR_<mode> to the CPSR if the processor is in a privileged mode and to do nothing if in User modify

ARM INSTRUCTION SET S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
PSR TRANSFER (MRS, MSR)
The instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. The MRS and MSR instructions are formed from a subset of the Data Processing operations and are
implemented using the TEQ, TST, CMN and CMP instructions without the S flag set. The encoding is shown in Figure 3-11.
These instructions allow access to the CPSR and SPSR registers. The MRS instruction allows the contents of the CPSR or SPSR_<mode> to be moved to a general register. The MSR instruction allows the contents of a general register to be moved to the CPSR or SPSR_<mode> register.
The MSR instruction also allows an immediate value or register contents to be transferred to the condition code flags (N,Z,C and V) of CPSR or SPSR_<mode> without affecting the control bits. In this case, the top four bits of the specified register contents or 32 bit immediate value are written to the top four bits of the relevant PSR.
OPERAND RESTRICTIONS
•• In user mode, the control bits of the CPSR are protected from change, so only the condition code flags of the
CPSR can be changed. In other (privileged) modes the entire CPSR can be changed.
•• Note that the software must never change the state of the T bit in the CPSR. If this happens, the processor
will enter an unpredictable state.
•• The SPSR register which is accessed depends on the mode at the time of execution. For example, only
SPSR_fiq is accessible when the processor is in FIQ mode.
•• You must not specify R15 as the source or destination register.
•• Also, do not attempt to access an SPSR in User mode, since no such register exists.

RESERVED BITS
Only twelve bits of the PSR are defined in ARM7TDMI (N,Z,C,V,I,F, T & M[4:0]); the remaining bits are reserved for use in future versions of the processor. Refer to Figure 2-6 for a full description of the PSR bits.
To ensure the maximum compatibility between ARM7TDMI programs and future processors, the following rules should be observed:
The reserved bits should be preserved when changing the value in a PSR.
Programs should not rely on specific values from the reserved bits when checking the PSR status, since they
may read as one or zero in future processors.
A read-modify-write strategy should therefore be used when altering the control bits of any PSR register; this involves transferring the appropriate PSR register to a general register using the MRS instruction, changing only the relevant bits and then transferring the modified value back to the PSR register using the MSR instruction.
EXAMPLES
The following sequence performs a mode change:
MRS R0,CPSR ; Take a copy of the CPSR. BIC R0,R0,#0x1F ; Clear the mode bits. ORR R0,R0,#new_mode ; Select new mode MSR CPSR,R0 ; Write back the modified CPSR.
When the aim is simply to change the condition code flags in a PSR, a value can be written directly to the flag bits without disturbing the control bits. The following instruction sets the N,Z,C and V flags:
MSR CPSR_flg,#0xF0000000 ; Set all the flags regardless of their previous state
; (does not affect any control bits).
No attempt should be made to write an 8 bit immediate value into the whole PSR since such an operation cannot preserve the reserved bits.

PSR transfers take 1S incremental cycles, where S is defined as Sequential (S-cycle).

The multiply form of the instruction gives Rd:=Rm×Rs. Rn is ignored, and should be set to zero for compatibility with possible future upgrades to the instruction set. The multiply-accumulate form gives Rd:=Rm×Rs+Rn, which can save an explicit ADD instruction in some circumstances. Both forms of the instruction work on operands which may be considered as signed (2's complement) or unsigned integers.
The results of a signed multiply and of an unsigned multiply of 32 bit operands differ only in the upper 32 bits ­the low 32 bits of the signed and unsigned results are identical. As these instructions only produce the low 32 bits of a multiply, they can be used for both signed and unsigned multiplies.
For example consider the multiplication of the operands: Operand A Operand B Result 0xFFFFFFF6 0x0000001 0xFFFFFF38

If the Operands Are Interpreted as Signed
Operand A has the value –10, operand B has the value 20, and the result is -200 which is correctly represented as 0xFFFFFF38.

The instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. The instruction encoding is shown in Figure 3-14.
The single data transfer instructions are used to load or store single bytes or words of data. The memory address used in the transfer is calculated by adding an offset to or subtracting an offset from a base register.
The result of this calculation may be written back into the base register if auto-indexing is required.

OFFSETS AND AUTO-INDEXING
The offset from the base may be either a 12 bit unsigned binary immediate value in the instruction, or a second register (possibly shifted in some way). The offset may be added to (U=1) or subtracted from (U=0) the base register Rn. The offset modification may be performed either before (pre-indexed, P=1) or after (post-indexed, P=0) the base is used as the transfer address.
The W bit gives optional auto increment and decrement addressing modes. The modified base value may be written back into the base (W=1), or the old base value may be kept (W=0). In the case of post-indexed addressing, the write back bit is redundant and is always set to zero, since the old base value can be retained by setting the offset to zero. Therefore post-indexed data transfers always write back the modified base. The only use of the W bit in a post-indexed data transfer is in privileged mode code, where setting the W bit forces non­privileged mode for the transfer, allowing the operating system to generate a user address in a system where the memory management hardware makes suitable use of this hardware.
SHIFTED REGISTER OFFSET
The 8 shift control bits are described in the data processing instructions section. However, the register specified shift amounts are not available in this instruction class. See Figure 3-5.
BYTES AND WORDS
This instruction class may be used to transfer a byte (B=1) or a word (B=0) between an ARM7TDMI register and memory.
The action of LDR(B) and STR(B) instructions is influenced by the BIGEND control signal of ARM7TDMI core. The two possible configurations are described below.
Little-Endian Configuration
A byte load (LDRB) expects the data on data bus inputs 7 through 0 if the supplied address is on a word boundary, on data bus inputs 15 through 8 if it is a word address plus one byte, and so on. The selected byte is placed in the bottom 8 bits of the destination register, and the remaining bits of the register are filled with zeros. Please see Figure 2-2.
A byte store (STRB) repeats the bottom 8 bits of the source register four times across data bus outputs 31 through 0. The external memory system should activate the appropriate byte subsystem to store the data.
A word load (LDR) will normally use a word aligned address. However, an address offset from a word boundary will cause the data to be rotated into the register so that the addressed byte occupies bits 0 to 7. This means that half-words accessed at offsets 0 and 2 from the word boundary will be correctly loaded into bits 0 through 15 of the register. Two shift operations are then required to clear or to sign extend the upper 16 bits.
A word store (STR) should generate a word aligned address. The word presented to the data bus is not affected if the address is not word aligned. That is, bit 31 of the register being stored always appears on data bus output 31.

A byte load (LDRB) expects the data on data bus inputs 31 through 24 if the supplied address is on a word boundary, on data bus inputs 23 through 16 if it is a word address plus one byte, and so on. The selected byte is placed in the bottom 8 bits of the destination register and the remaining bits of the register are filled with zeros. Please see Figure 2-1.
A byte store (STRB) repeats the bottom 8 bits of the source register four times across data bus outputs 31 through 0. The external memory system should activate the appropriate byte subsystem to store the data.
A word load (LDR) should generate a word aligned address. An address offset of 0 or 2 from a word boundary will cause the data to be rotated into the register so that the addressed byte occupies bits 31 through 24. This means that half-words accessed at these offsets will be correctly loaded into bits 16 through 31 of the register. A shift operation is then required to move (and optionally sign extend) the data into the bottom 16 bits. An address offset of 1 or 3 from a word boundary will cause the data to be rotated into the register so that the addressed byte occupies bits 15 through 8.
A word store (STR) should generate a word aligned address. The word presented to the data bus is not affected if the address is not word aligned. That is, bit 31 of the register being stored always appears on data bus output 31.

USE OF R15
Write-back must not be specified if R15 is specified as the base register (Rn). When using R15 as the base register you must remember it contains an address 8 bytes on from the address of the current instruction.
R15 must not be specified as the register offset (Rm). When R15 is the source register (Rd) of a register store (STR) instruction, the stored value will be address of the
instruction plus 12.
RESTRICTION ON THE USE OF BASE REGISTER
When configured for late aborts, the following example code is difficult to unwind as the base register, Rn, gets updated before the abort handler starts. Sometimes it may be impossible to calculate the initial value.
After an abort, the following example code is difficult to unwind as the base register, Rn, gets updated before the abort handler starts. Sometimes it may be impossible to calculate the initial value.
EXAMPLE:
LDR R0,[R1],R1
Therefore a post-indexed LDR or STR where Rm is the same register as Rn should not be used.
DATA ABORTS
A transfer to or from a legal address may cause problems for a memory management system. For instance, in a system which uses virtual memory the required data may be absent from main memory. The memory manager can signal a problem by taking the processor ABORT input HIGH whereupon the Data Abort trap will be taken. It is up to the system software to resolve the cause of the problem, then the instruction can be restarted and the original program continued.
INSTRUCTION CYCLE TIMES
Normal LDR instructions take 1S + 1N + 1I and LDR PC take 2S + 2N +1I incremental cycles, where S,N and I are defined as sequential (S-cycle), non-sequential (N-cycle), and internal (I-cycle), respectively. STR instructions take 2N incremental cycles to execute.

Figure 3-17. Halfword and Signed Data Transfer with Immediate Offset and Auto-Indexing
OFFSETS AND AUTO-INDEXING
The offset from the base may be either a 8-bit unsigned binary immediate value in the instruction, or a second register. The 8-bit offset is formed by concatenating bits 11 to 8 and bits 3 to 0 of the instruction word, such that bit 11 becomes the MSB and bit 0 becomes the LSB. The offset may be added to (U=1) or subtracted from (U=0) the base register Rn. The offset modification may be performed either before (pre-indexed, P=1) or after (post­indexed, P=0) the base register is used as the transfer address.
The W bit gives optional auto-increment and decrement addressing modes. The modified base value may be written back into the base (W=1), or the old base may be kept (W=0). In the case of post-indexed addressing, the write back bit is redundant and is always set to zero, since the old base value can be retained if necessary by setting the offset to zero. Therefore post-indexed data transfers always write back the modified base.
The Write-back bit should not be set high (W=1) when post-indexed addressing is selected.

HALFWORD LOAD AND STORES
Setting S=0 and H=1 may be used to transfer unsigned Half-words between an ARM7TDMI register and memory. The action of LDRH and STRH instructions is influenced by the BIGEND control signal. The two possible
configurations are described in the section below.
SIGNED BYTE AND HALFWORD LOADS
The S bit controls the loading of sign-extended data. When S=1 the H bit selects between Bytes (H=0) and Half­words (H=1). The L bit should not be set low (Store) when Signed (S=1) operations have been selected.
The LDRSB instruction loads the selected Byte into bits 7 to 0 of the destination register and bits 31 to 8 of the destination register are set to the value of bit 7, the sign bit.
The LDRSH instruction loads the selected Half-word into bits 15 to 0 of the destination register and bits 31 to 16 of the destination register are set to the value of bit 15, the sign bit.
The action of the LDRSB and LDRSH instructions is influenced by the BIGEND control signal. The two possible configurations are described in the following section.
ENDIANNESS AND BYTE/HALFWORD SELECTION Little-Endian Configuration
A signed byte load (LDRSB) expects data on data bus inputs 7 through to 0 if the supplied address is on a word boundary, on data bus inputs 15 through to 8 if it is a word address plus one byte, and so on. The selected byte is placed in the bottom 8 bit of the destination register, and the remaining bits of the register are filled with the sign bit, bit 7 of the byte. Please see Figure 2-2.
A halfword load (LDRSH or LDRH) expects data on data bus inputs 15 through to 0 if the supplied address is on a word boundary and on data bus inputs 31 through to 16 if it is a halfword boundary, (A[1]=1).The supplied address should always be on a halfword boundary. If bit 0 of the supplied address is HIGH then the ARM7TDMI will load an unpredictable value. The selected halfword is placed in the bottom 16 bits of the destination register. For unsigned half-words (LDRH), the top 16 bits of the register are filled with zeros and for signed half-words (LDRSH) the top 16 bits are filled with the sign bit, bit 15 of the halfword.
A halfword store (STRH) repeats the bottom 16 bits of the source register twice across the data bus outputs 31 through to 0. The external memory system should activate the appropriate halfword subsystem to store the data. Note that the address must be halfword aligned, if bit 0 of the address is HIGH this will cause unpredictable behavior.

USE OF R15
Write-back should not be specified if R15 is specified as the base register (Rn). When using R15 as the base register you must remember it contains an address 8 bytes on from the address of the current instruction.
R15 should not be specified as the register offset (Rm). When R15 is the source register (Rd) of a Half-word store (STRH) instruction, the stored address will be address
of the instruction plus 12.
DATA ABORTS
A transfer to or from a legal address may cause problems for a memory management system. For instance, in a system which uses virtual memory the required data may be absent from the main memory. The memory manager can signal a problem by taking the processor ABORT input HIGH whereupon the Data Abort trap will be taken.

BLOCK DATA TRANSFER (LDM, STM)
The instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. The instruction encoding is shown in Figure 3-18.
Block data transfer instructions are used to load (LDM) or store (STM) any subset of the currently visible registers. They support all possible stacking modes, maintaining full or empty stacks which can grow up or down memory, and are very efficient instructions for saving or restoring context, or for moving large blocks of data around main memory.
THE REGISTER LIST
The instruction can cause the transfer of any registers in the current bank (and non-user mode programs can also transfer to and from the user bank, see below). The register list is a 16 bit field in the instruction, with each bit corresponding to a register. A 1 in bit 0 of the register field will cause R0 to be transferred, a 0 will cause it not to be transferred; similarly bit 1 controls the transfer of R1, and so on.
Any subset of the registers, or all the registers, may be specified. The only restriction is that the register list should not be empty.
Whenever R15 is stored to memory the stored value is the address of the STM instruction plus 12.

ADDRESSING MODES
The transfer addresses are determined by the contents of the base register (Rn), the pre/post bit (P) and the up/ down bit (U). The registers are transferred in the order lowest to highest, so R15 (if in the list) will always be transferred last. The lowest register also gets transferred to/from the lowest memory address. By way of illustration, consider the transfer of R1, R5 and R7 in the case where Rn=0x1000 and write back of the modified base is required (W=1). Figure 3.19-22 show the sequence of register transfers, the addresses used, and the value of Rn after the instruction has completed.
In all cases, had write back of the modified base not been required (W=0), Rn would have retained its initial value of 0x1000 unless it was also in the transfer list of a load multiple register instruction, when it would have been overwritten with the loaded value.
ADDRESS ALIGNMENT
The address should normally be a word aligned quantity and non-word aligned addresses do not affect the instruction. However, the bottom 2 bits of the address will appear on A[1:0] and might be interpreted by the memory system.

When the S bit is set in a LDM/STM instruction its meaning depends on whether or not R15 is in the transfer list and on the type of instruction. The S bit should only be set if the instruction is to execute in a privileged mode.
LDM with R15 in Transfer List and S Bit Set (Mode Changes)
If the instruction is a LDM then SPSR_<mode> is transferred to CPSR at the same time as R15 is loaded.
STM with R15 in Transfer List and S Bit Set (User Bank Transfer)
The registers transferred are taken from the User bank rather than the bank corresponding to the current mode. This is useful for saving the user state on process switches. Base write-back should not be used when this mechanism is employed.
R15 not in List and S Bit Set (User Bank Transfer)
For both LDM and STM instructions, the User bank registers are transferred rather than the register bank corresponding to the current mode. This is useful for saving the user state on process switches. Base write-back should not be used when this mechanism is employed.
When the instruction is LDM, care must be taken not to read from a banked register during the following cycle (inserting a dummy instruction such as MOV R0, R0 after the LDM will ensure safety).
USE OF R15 AS THE BASE
R15 should not be used as the base register in any LDM or STM instruction.
3-43
ARM INSTRUCTION SET S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
INCLUSION OF THE BASE IN THE REGISTER LIST
When write-back is specified, the base is written back at the end of the second cycle of the instruction. During a STM, the first register is written out at the start of the second cycle. A STM which includes storing the base, with the base as the first register to be stored, will therefore store the unchanged value, whereas with the base second or later in the transfer order, will store the modified value. A LDM will always overwrite the updated base if the base is in the list.
DATA ABORTS
Some legal addresses may be unacceptable to a memory management system, and the memory manager can indicate a problem with an address by taking the ABORT signal HIGH. This can happen on any transfer during a multiple register load or store, and must be recoverable if ARM7TDMI is to be used in a virtual memory system.
Abort during STM Instructions
If the abort occurs during a store multiple instruction, ARM7TDMI takes little action until the instruction completes, whereupon it enters the data abort trap. The memory manager is responsible for preventing erroneous writes to the memory. The only change to the internal state of the processor will be the modification of the base register if write-back was specified, and this must be reversed by software (and the cause of the abort resolved) before the instruction may be retried.
Aborts during LDM Instructions
When ARM7TDMI detects a data abort during a load multiple instruction, it modifies the operation of the instruction to ensure that recovery is possible.
Overwriting of registers stops when the abort happens. The aborting load will not take place but earlier ones
may have overwritten registers. The PC is always the last register to be written and so will always be preserved.
The base register is restored, to its modified value if write-back was requested. This ensures recoverability in
the case where the base register is also in the transfer list, and may have been overwritten before the abort occurred.
The data abort trap is taken when the load multiple has completed, and the system software must undo any base modification (and resolve the cause of the abort) before restarting the instruction.
INSTRUCTION CYCLE TIMES
Normal LDM instructions take nS + 1N + 1I and LDM PC takes (n+1)S + 2N + 1I incremental cycles, where S,N and I are defined as sequential (S-cycle), non-sequential (N-cycle), and internal (I-cycle), respectively. STM instructions take (n-1)S + 2N incremental cycles to execute, where n is the number of words transferred.

FD, ED, FA, EA define pre/post indexing and the up/down bit by reference to the form of stack required. The F and E refer to a "full" or "empty" stack, i.e. whether a pre-index has to be done (full) before storing to the stack. The A and D refer to whether the stack is ascending or descending. If ascending, a STM will go up and LDM down, if descending, vice-versa.
IA, IB, DA, DB allow control when LDM/STM are not being used for stacks and simply mean Increment After, Increment Before, Decrement After, Decrement Before.

Figure 3-23. Swap Instruction
The instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. The instruction encoding is shown in Figure 3-23.
The data swap instruction is used to swap a byte or word quantity between a register and external memory. This instruction is implemented as a memory read followed by a memory write which are “locked” together (the processor cannot be interrupted until both operations have completed, and the memory manager is warned to treat them as inseparable). This class of instruction is particularly useful for implementing software semaphores.
The swap address is determined by the contents of the base register (Rn). The processor first reads the contents of the swap address. Then it writes the contents of the source register (Rm) to the swap address, and stores the old memory contents in the destination register (Rd). The same register may be specified as both the source and destination.
The LOCK output goes HIGH for the duration of the read and write operations to signal to the external memory manager that they are locked together, and should be allowed to complete without interruption. This is important in multi-processor systems where the swap instruction is the only indivisible instruction which may be used to implement semaphores; control of the memory must not be removed from a processor while it is performing a locked operation.
BYTES AND WORDS
This instruction class may be used to swap a byte (B=1) or a word (B=0) between an ARM7TDMI register and memory. The SWP instruction is implemented as a LDR followed by a STR and the action of these is as described in the section on single data transfers. In particular, the description of Big and Little Endian configuration applies to the SWP instruction.

USE OF R15
Do not use R15 as an operand (Rd, Rn or Rs) in a SWP instruction.
DATA ABORTS
If the address used for the swap is unacceptable to a memory management system, the memory manager can flag the problem by driving ABORT HIGH. This can happen on either the read or the write cycle (or both), and in either case, the Data Abort trap will be taken. It is up to the system software to resolve the cause of the problem, then the instruction can be restarted and the original program continued.

Figure 3-24. Software Interrupt Instruction
The software interrupt instruction is used to enter Supervisor mode in a controlled manner. The instruction causes the software interrupt trap to be taken, which effects the mode change. The PC is then forced to a fixed value (0x08) and the CPSR is saved in SPSR_svc. If the SWI vector address is suitably protected (by external memory management hardware) from modification by the user, a fully protected operating system may be constructed.
RETURN FROM THE SUPERVISOR
The PC is saved in R14_svc upon entering the software interrupt trap, with the PC adjusted to point to the word after the SWI instruction. MOVS PC,R14_svc will return to the calling program and restore the CPSR.
Note that the link mechanism is not re-entrant, so if the supervisor code wishes to use software interrupts within itself it must first save a copy of the return address and SPSR.
COMMENT FIELD
The bottom 24 bits of the instruction are ignored by the processor, and may be used to communicate information to the supervisor code. For instance, the supervisor may look at this field and use it to index into an array of entry points for routines which perform the various supervisor functions.

COPROCESSOR DATA OPERATIONS (CDP)
The instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. The instruction encoding is shown in Figure 3-25.
This class of instruction is used to tell a coprocessor to perform some internal operation. No result is communicated back to ARM7TDMI, and it will not wait for the operation to complete. The coprocessor could contain a queue of such instructions awaiting execution, and their execution can overlap other activity, allowing the coprocessor and ARM7TDMI to perform independent tasks in parallel.
COPROCESSOR INSTRUCTIONS
The KS32C41000, unlike some other ARM-based processors, does not have an external coprocessor interface. It does not have a on-chip coprocessor also.
So then all coprocessor instructions will cause the undefined instruction trap to be taken on the KS32C41000. These coprocessor instructions can be emulated by the undefined trap handler. Even though external coprocessor can not be connected to the KS32C41000, the coprocessor instructions are still described here in full for completeness. (Remember that any external coprocessor described in this section is a software emulation.)

THE COPROCESSOR FIELDS
The CP# field is used to identify the coprocessor which is required to supply or accept the data, and a coprocessor will only respond if its number matches the contents of this field.
The CRd field and the N bit contain information for the coprocessor which may be interpreted in different ways by different coprocessors, but by convention CRd is the register to be transferred (or the first register where more than one is to be transferred), and the N bit is used to choose one of two transfer length options. For instance N=0 could select the transfer of a single register, and N=1 could select the transfer of all the registers for context switching.
3-53
ARM INSTRUCTION SET S3C3410X RISC MICROPROCESSOR
ADDRESSING MODES
ARM7TDMI is responsible for providing the address used by the memory system for the transfer, and the addressing modes available are a subset of those used in single data transfer instructions. Note, however, that the immediate offsets are 8 bits wide and specify word offsets for coprocessor data transfers, whereas they are 12 bits wide and specify byte offsets for single data transfers.
The 8 bit unsigned immediate offset is shifted left 2 bits and either added to (U=1) or subtracted from (U=0) the base register (Rn); this calculation may be performed either before (P=1) or after (P=0) the base is used as the transfer address. The modified base value may be overwritten back into the base register (if W=1), or the old value of the base may be preserved (W=0). Note that post-indexed addressing modes require explicit setting of the W bit, unlike LDR and STR which always write-back when post-indexed.
The value of the base register, modified by the offset in a pre-indexed instruction, is used as the address for the transfer of the first word. The second word (if more than one is transferred) will go to or come from an address one word (4 bytes) higher than the first transfer, and the address will be incremented by one word for each subsequent transfer.
ADDRESS ALIGNMENT
The base address should normally be a word aligned quantity. The bottom 2 bits of the address will appear on
A[1:0] and might be interpreted by the memory system.
USE OF R15
If Rn is R15, the value used will be the address of the instruction plus 8 bytes. Base write-back to R15 must not be specified.
DATA ABORTS
If the address is legal but the memory manager generates an abort, the data trap will be taken. The write-back of the modified base will take place, but all other processor state will be preserved. The coprocessor is partly responsible for ensuring that the data transfer can be restarted after the cause of the abort has been resolved, and must ensure that any subsequent actions it undertakes can be repeated when the instruction is retried.
INSTRUCTION CYCLE TIMES
Coprocessor data transfer instructions take (n–1)S + 2N + bI incremental cycles to execute, where: n The number of words transferred.
b The number of cycles spent in the coprocessor busy-wait loop.
S, N and I are defined as sequential (S-cycle), non-sequential (N-cycle), and internal (I-cycle), respectively.

COPROCESSOR REGISTER TRANSFERS (MRC, MCR)
The instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. The instruction encoding is shown in Figure 3-27.
This class of instruction is used to communicate information directly between ARM7TDMI and a coprocessor. An example of a coprocessor to ARM7TDMI register transfer (MRC) instruction would be a FIX of a floating point value held in a coprocessor, where the floating point number is converted into a 32 bit integer within the coprocessor, and the result is then transferred to ARM7TDMI register. A FLOAT of a 32 bit value in ARM7TDMI register into a floating point value within the coprocessor illustrates the use of ARM7TDMI register to coprocessor transfer (MCR).
An important use of this instruction is to communicate control information directly from the coprocessor into the ARM7TDMI CPSR flags. As an example, the result of a comparison of two floating point values within a coprocessor can be moved to the CPSR to control the subsequent flow of execution.

The conventional interpretation is that the CP Opc and CP fields specify the operation the coprocessor is required to perform, CRn is the coprocessor register which is the source or destination of the transferred information, and CRm is a second coprocessor register which may be involved in some way which depends on the particular operation specified.

PSEUDO-RANDOM BINARY SEQUENCE GENERATOR
It is often necessary to generate (pseudo-) random numbers and the most efficient algorithms are based on shift generators with exclusive-OR feedback rather like a cyclic redundancy check generator. Unfortunately the sequence of a 32 bit generator needs more than one feedback tap to be maximal length (i.e. 2^32–1 cycles before repetition), so this example uses a 33 bit register with taps at bits 33 and 20. The basic algorithm is newbit:=bit 33 eor bit 20, shift left the 33 bit number and put in newbit at the bottom; this operation is performed for all the newbits needed (i.e. 32 bits). The entire operation can be done in 5 S cycles:

General recursive method for Rb := Ra×C, C a constant:
1. If C even, say C = 2^n×D, D odd: D=1: MOV Rb,Ra,LSL #n
D<>1: {Rb := Ra×D} MOV Rb,Rb,LSL #n
2. If C MOD 4 = 1, say C = 2^n×D+1, D odd, n>1: D=1: ADD Rb,Ra,Ra,LSL #n
D<>1: {Rb := Ra×D} ADD Rb,Ra,Rb,LSL #n
3. If C MOD 4 = 3, say C = 2^n×D–1, D odd, n>1: D=1: RSB Rb,Ra,Ra,LSL #n
D<>1: {Rb := Ra×D} RSB Rb,Ra,Rb,LSL #n
This is not quite optimal, but close. An example of its non-optimality is multiply by 45 which is done by:
RSB Rb,Ra,Ra,LSL#2 ; Multiply by 3 RSB Rb,Ra,Rb,LSL#2 ; Multiply by 4×3–1 = 11 ADD Rb,Ra,Rb,LSL# 2 ; Multiply by 4×11+1 = 45
rather than by:
ADD Rb,Ra,Ra,LSL#3 ; Multiply by 9 ADD Rb,Rb,Rb,LSL#2 ; Multiply by 5×9 = 45
