4.8.5 MAR, MRA
XScale coprocessor 0 instructions.
Transfer between two general-purpose registers and a 40-bit internal accumulator.
Syntax
MAR{cond} Acc, RdLo, RdHi
MRA{cond} RdLo, RdHi, Acc
where:
cond
is an optional condition code (see Conditional execution on page 4-4).
Acc
is the internal accumulator. The standard name is
accx
, where
x
is an
integer in the range 0-
n
. The value of
n
depends on the processor. It is 0
for current processors.
RdLo, RdHi
are general-purpose registers.
Usage
The
MAR
instruction copies the contents of
RdLo
to bits[31:0] of
Acc
, and the least
significant byte of
RdHi
to bits[39:32] of
Acc
.
The
MRA
instruction:
• copies bits[31:0] of
Acc
to
RdLo
• copies bits[39:32] of
Acc
to
RdHi
• sign extends the value by copying bit[39] of
Acc
to bits[31:8] of
RdHi
.
Architectures
These instructions are only available in XScale.
