1 Introduction to the ARM Architecture or: a loose set of random facts blatantly copied from tech sheets and the Architecture Ref. Manual
2 Glance into the past Initial ARM Processor developed by Acorn Computers, 1985 ARM means: Acorn RISC Machine architecture Architecture was influenced by UC Berkeley s RISC Project RISC means: Reduced Instruction Set Computing RISC vs. CISC: remember GRA Lecture? // TODO: Show OLD advertisement with fancy 80s jingle
3 Why? Architectural simplicity can be beneficial: è small implementations è possibly low power consumption Keyfeatures: Keeping implementation size small while maintaining reasonable performance and low power consumption. Example: Jetson K1 board does not exceed 15W, even under heavy load ARM Architecture is suitable for embedded Applications, and even HPC nowadays: ARM Cluster in Spain.
4 About the ARM Cortex-A15 MPCore Implements ARMv7-A architecture 32 bit processor core, licensed by ARM Can access 40 bit large physical addresses (thus up to 1TB RAM) 15 Stage Integer, Stage FP pipeline NEON extension (ARMS way of doing SIMD) Out of order speculative issue 3-way superscalar execution pipeline 32 KB data + 32 KB instruction L1 cache per core Integrated low-latency L2 cache controller, up to 4 MB per cluster
5 About the Cortex-A15 (ARMv7-A) Cortex A15 Multiprocessor Functionality L2 Cache with Snoop Control Unit for cache coherency
6 Stuff to know about the Cortex-A15 Better memory system performance than former models Floating point performance enhanced Multicore functionality for scalability Wider pipelines for higher instruction throughput
7 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) 32 Bit ARM Architecture Offering hardware floating point unit and various RISC features Most often used architecture in mobile devices Three profiles, describe in more detail later: A = application, R = real time, M = microcontroller Fixed instruction width of 32 bit Almost single clock-cycle execution of most instruction
8 ARMv7 Variants ARMV7-A: Traditional ARM architecture with multiple modes, supports ARM and Thumb instruction set ( 16 bit instruction set with subset functionality of ARM instruction set è better code density ). Supports virtual memory system based on an MMU. ARMV7-R: Realtime profile with multiple modes, supports ARM and Thumb instruction set. Supports protected memory system, based on memory protection unit. ARMV7-M: Microcontroller profile, designed for low-latency interrupt processing, implements some variant of protected memory system.
9 Core data types Data types in memory: Byte: 8 bits Halfword: 16 bits Word: 32 bits Doubleworld: 64 bits Data types in registers, supported by instruction set: 32-bit pointers unsigned or signed 32-bit integers unsigned 16-bit or 8-bit integers signed 16-bit or 8-bit integers two 16-bit integers packed into a register four 8-bit integers packed into a register unsigned or signed 64-bit integers held in two registers
10 Core data types Load and store operations transfer bytes, halfwords or words to and from memory. Instruction set supports also instructions that transfer two or more words to and from memory
11 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) ARM implements typical RISC features: Large and uniform register file (some ARM processors had over 60 64bit registers) Load/store Architecture è data-processing operation operate only on registers content, not on memory è more uniform non-functional behavior of instructions ( //TODO: ask students why? ) Simple addressing modes: load/store addresse are computed from register contents and instruction fields only
12 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) Other ARM features: Combined shift/arithmetic shift/logic operations Load and Store multiple instructions è maximizing data throughput Multiple registers can be loaded from a block of consecutive memory Conditional execution of all instructions: Used to be ARMs substitute for a Branch predictor, code gets executed depending on condition of flags in Application Program Status Register, thus keeping number of used branches small and speeding up execution, while saving silicon for a branch predictor.
13 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) Conditional Execution example: gcd algorithm in C: Normal way with branches Better way for ARM with conditional execution feature BUT: Modern ARM processor DO actually have branch prediction units
14 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) Core Registers Thirteen general-purpose 32-bit registers, R0-R12 Three 32-bit Registers for special use, SP (stack pointer), PC (program counter) and LR(link register)
15 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) SP: Stack pointer, points to the address of the upmost stack element. Could be used for other things than holding a stack pointer when using ARM instruction set, but that is likely to break stuff according to the manual LR: Link Register, holds address where a called function should return to when it completes. More efficient than popping the return address from the memory where the stack is situated at. Nice, when calling a leaf routine for example. PC: Program Counter, reads address of current instruction plus 8 bytes. è Legacy thing, from when the pipeline was only three stages deep.
16 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) Application Program Status Register 32 bit register Reports program status Contains condition flags such as negative, zero or carry Contains an overflow flag Contains greater than or equal flags Can be used to utilize the conditional execution (as explained earlier)
17 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) Execution state registers: ISETSTATE,ITSTATE,ENDIANSTATE Modify execution of instructions è whether instruction will be interpreted as Thumb or ARM instruction: ISETSTATE è whether data is interpreted big-endian or little-indian: ENDIANSTATE No direct access to these registers from application level instructions But can be changed due to side-effects of these instructions
18 About the Architecture (ARMv7-A) Execution state registers: ISETSTATE,ITSTATE,ENDIANSTATE ITSTATE is a register used for execution of the IT instruction, applying to a block of up to four instructions following an IT instruction IT instruction makes up to four following instructions with conditions that can be true or not. IT instructions are normally generated by the assembler, because Thumb instruction set does not support conditional execution with C,N,V,Z flags, thus IT instructions are used. It is divided into two subfields IT[7:5] Holds base condition for If-Then block. Top 3 bits of condition code from IT instruction field firstcond IT[4:0] Size of the IT block. Value of the LSB of condition code for each instruction in the block
