Update ISA spec #106
Comments
@maxgillett is making a start on this. That said, I would caution us against premature documentation. Most of these opcodes are experimental and it's not clear that they will be included in a release. We can avoid unnecessary documentation effort and producing docs that will be quickly out of date by waiting until APIs stabilize before we document them. |
Awesome start with #60, thanks! Yes we can fill out the doc more later but I'd like to keep track of it as we go as well. |
As per #113 the spec for Operands: a |
As per #108 |
Our ISA spec is getting out of date as we actively develop. We should update it. E.g.,
Add
READ_ADVICE
:Operands: a
Description: Read the content of the advice tape and write the next 4 byte values to those beginning at offset
a
.Add
WRITE
:Operands: b(fp)
Description: Follow the pointer stored at offset
b
from the current frame pointer and write the next 4 byte values to the output chip.Remove `ISH{L,R}
Add
DIVI
Add immediate versions of bitwise operations
and
,or
,xor
Add
NE
:Operands: a, b(fp), c(fp)
Description: If [b] != [c] then set a to 1. Otherwise, set a to 0.
Add
MULHU
:Operands: a, b(fp), c(fp)
Description: Multiply [b] by [c] then set a to the top part of the result.
Add
LOADFP
(to be implemented):Operands: a, b(fp)
Description: Stores the current value of
fp
plus the immediate operandb
into the register numbereda
. The operandc
is always set to 0 (it is unused), while the operandsd
ande
are always set to 1 (indicating thatb
andc
are immediate operands).Add
ILT
