This post is an introduction to ARM64 assembly and will not cover any advanced topics. Developers of Linux distros have also decided to drop support for all 32-bit architectures, including ARM. It’s clear that ARM intends to phase out support for 32-bit code with its A series. Privileged code (kernel, drivers, hyper-visor) will only run in 64-bit mode. The A76 will continue to support A32 and T32 instruction sets, but only for unprivileged code. Moreover, the Automotive Enhanced (AE) version of the A76 unveiled in the same month will target applications like self-driving cars. Second, a company called Ampere started shipping a 64-bit ARM CPU for servers in September 2018 that’s intended to compete with Intel’s XEON CPU. First, Apple announced in April 2018 its intention to replace Intel with ARM for their Macbook CPU from 2020 onwards. ARM already has a monopoly on handheld devices, and are now projected to take a share of the laptop and server market. In C-SPY, open the View > Stack window.Īll product names are trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective owners.The Cortex-A76 codenamed “Enyo” will be the first of three CPU cores from ARM designed to target the laptop market between 2018-2020. To get run-time stack usage information while debugging in C-SPY, enable: Tools > Options > Stack > 'Enable graphical stack display and stack usage tracking'. See " IAR C/C++ Development Guide", chapter " Stack usage analysis".įor Stack Usage Control file syntax, see chapter " The stack usage control file". #pragma call_graph_root directly in the code). (Note that instead of using a control file, it is possible to use With the above, stack usage analysis now knows that these (not called) functions are " call graph roots". suc), the following must be specified: call graph root : test_task Ĭall graph root : SysTick_Handler, UsageFault_Handler call graph root : test_task Ĭall graph root : SysTick_Handler, UsageFault_Handler
These functions are not (directly) called by anyone, so in the Stack Usage Control file (. It also contains an OS task: ' test_task'. The example project also contains two interrupt handlers: ' SysTick_Handler' and ' UsageFault_Handler'. The linker map file now contains stack usage information in the section called " STACK USAGE". To enable stack usage analysis, the following project option is enabled: Project > Options > Linker > Advanced > Enable stack usage analysis The simple example project contains a ' main' and a ' test_func' function. Exampleĭownload and open the example project from the link: Example project for IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM 7.20.1.zip. This technical note describes how to get stack usage statistics from an application, and also shows the syntax of stack usage control files (. The stack is described in " IAR C/C++ Development Guide", chapter " Storage of auto variables and parameters".
