# Assembly
|
|
|
|
Assembly tokenization should be working completely. It knows what instructions the CPU implementation supports and parses based on them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
* all loads/stores: `lb, lh, lw, lbu, lhu, sw, sh, sb`
|
|
* supported arg format is either `rd, imm(reg)` or `rd, reg, imm`
|
|
* all branch statements: `beq, bne, blt, bge, bltu, bgeu`
|
|
* all jumps `j, jal, jalr, ret`
|
|
* basic arithmetic: `add, addi, sub` (not `lui, auipc`)
|
|
* shifts: `sll, slli, srl, srli, sra, srai`
|
|
* `scall, ecall, sbreak, ebreak` (both `s` and `e` version are the same instruction)
|
|
* compares (non immediate): `slt, sltu` (not `slti, sltiu`)
|
|
* logical (non immediate): `and, or, xor` (not `andi, ori, xori`)
|
|
|
|
All unimplemented instructions can be added quite easily
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Pseudo-ops
|
|
The following pseudo-ops are implemented as of yet:
|
|
* `.space <len>` reverse <len> bytes of zero
|
|
* `.ascii 'text'` put text into memory
|
|
* `.asciiz 'text'` put text into memory (null terminated)
|
|
* `.section .<name>` same as `.<name>`, see sections
|
|
* `.set <name>, <value>` to create a const symbol with a given value
|
|
* `.global <name>` mark symbol `<name>` as a global symbol. It is available from all loaded programs
|
|
|
|
## Sections:
|
|
Currently only these three sections are supported:
|
|
* `data` read-write data (non-executable)
|
|
* `rodata` read-only data (non-executable)
|
|
* `text` executable data (read-only)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Allocating stack
|
|
another pseudo-op is recognized: `.stack <len>`. This marks the executable as requesting at least `<len>` bytes of stack.
|
|
If the loader respects this wish, the sp is initialized pointing to the end of the stack.
