  • IEEE Standard 754 for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic
    Work in Progress: Lecture Notes on the Status of IEEE 754 October 1, 1997 3:36 am Lecture Notes on the Status of IEEE Standard 754 for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic Prof. W. Kahan Elect. Eng. & Computer Science University of California Berkeley CA 94720-1776 Introduction: Twenty years ago anarchy threatened floating-point arithmetic. Over a dozen commercially significant arithmetics boasted diverse wordsizes, precisions, rounding procedures and over/underflow behaviors, and more were in the works. “Portable” software intended to reconcile that numerical diversity had become unbearably costly to develop. Thirteen years ago, when IEEE 754 became official, major microprocessor manufacturers had already adopted it despite the challenge it posed to implementors. With unprecedented altruism, hardware designers had risen to its challenge in the belief that they would ease and encourage a vast burgeoning of numerical software. They did succeed to a considerable extent. Anyway, rounding anomalies that preoccupied all of us in the 1970s afflict only CRAY X-MPs — J90s now. Now atrophy threatens features of IEEE 754 caught in a vicious circle: Those features lack support in programming languages and compilers, so those features are mishandled and/or practically unusable, so those features are little known and less in demand, and so those features lack support in programming languages and compilers. To help break that circle, those features are discussed in these notes under the following headings: Representable Numbers, Normal and Subnormal, Infinite

  • X86-64 Machine-Level Programming∗
    x86-64 Machine-Level Programming∗ Randal E. Bryant David R. O'Hallaron September 9, 2005 Intel’s IA32 instruction set architecture (ISA), colloquially known as “x86”, is the dominant instruction format for the world’s computers. IA32 is the platform of choice for most Windows and Linux machines. The ISA we use today was defined in 1985 with the introduction of the i386 microprocessor, extending the 16-bit instruction set defined by the original 8086 to 32 bits. Even though subsequent processor generations have introduced new instruction types and formats, many compilers, including GCC, have avoided using these features in the interest of maintaining backward compatibility. A shift is underway to a 64-bit version of the Intel instruction set. Originally developed by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and named x86-64, it is now supported by high end processors from AMD (who now call it AMD64) and by Intel, who refer to it as EM64T. Most people still refer to it as “x86-64,” and we follow this convention. Newer versions of Linux and GCC support this extension. In making this switch, the developers of GCC saw an opportunity to also make use of some of the instruction-set features that had been added in more recent generations of IA32 processors. This combination of new hardware and revised compiler makes x86-64 code substantially different in form and in performance than IA32 code. In creating the 64-bit extension, the AMD engineers also adopted some of the features found in reduced-instruction set computers (RISC) [7] that made them the favored targets for optimizing compilers.

  • UM0434 E200z3 Powerpc Core Reference Manual
    UM0434 e200z3 PowerPC core Reference manual Introduction The primary objective of this user’s manual is to describe the functionality of the e200z3 embedded microprocessor core for software and hardware developers. This book is intended as a companion to the EREF: A Programmer's Reference Manual for Freescale Book E Processors (hereafter referred to as EREF). Book E is a PowerPC™ architecture definition for embedded processors that ensures binary compatibility with the user-instruction set architecture (UISA) portion of the PowerPC architecture as it was jointly developed by Apple, IBM, and Motorola (referred to as the AIM architecture). This document distinguishes among the three levels of the architectural and implementation definition, as follows: ● The Book E architecture—Book E defines a set of user-level instructions and registers that are drawn from the user instruction set architecture (UISA) portion of the AIM definition PowerPC architecture. Book E also includes numerous supervisor-level registers and instructions as they were defined in the AIM version of the PowerPC architecture for the virtual environment architecture (VEA) and the operating environment architecture (OEA). Because the operating system resources (such as the MMU and interrupts) defined by Book E differ greatly from those defined by the AIM architecture, Book E introduces many new registers and instructions. ● Freescale Book E implementation standards (EIS)—In many cases, the Book E architecture definition provides a general framework, leaving specific details up to the implementation. To ensure consistency among its Book E implementations, Freescale has defined implementation standards that provide an additional layer of architecture between Book E and the actual devices.
