Preface¶

The Product¶

This manual describes the instruction set, the trap-handling system and the memory management system of the Central Processing Unit (CPU) of the ND-500 and the ND-5000 series of computer systems.

The ND-5000 CPU has a completely new and unique physical implementation, but is based on the ND-500 systems architecture. The ND-5000 uses the same instructions as the ND-500.

The Reader¶

The ND-500 Reference Manual is intended for anybody using the ND-500 assembler and for system programmers needing to know the exact format of the generated code.

Programmers making advanced use of the memory management system for segmenting, or writing their own trap-handling routines will find detailed information in this manual.

Prerequisite Knowledge¶

No previous knowledge of the ND-500 or the ND-5000 is required, but assembly programming experience is desirable. Understanding the memory management system, and making programs that handle communication between the I/O processor and the main CPU and the inner kernel of the operating system, requires a more detailed description of both ND-500, or ND-5000, and ND-110 hardware. This can be found in

Description	Document Number
ND-5000 Hardware Description	ND-05.020
ND-500/2 Hardware Description	ND-05.015
ND-110 Functional description	ND-06.026

Use of the ND-500 assembler and how to link and load an ND-500 program is described in the manuals

THE MANUAL¶

The changes from version ND-05.009.3 to this version are made on pages 33, 41, 44, 133, 134, 157, 258, 286, 300, 316, 317 and 405.

This manual is organized as a reference manual for looking up the exact syntax of machine instructions and hardware details relevant to software. Each chapter is independent and can be understood without reading previous chapters.

This manual is valid for both the ND-500 and the ND-5000 computer systems. When the manual uses the name ND-5000 this is also valid for the ND-500 and vice versa.

The chapters are organized as follows:

PART I General design¶

Chapter 1: A general introduction to the ND-5000 system
Chapter 2: The register block
Chapter 3: Static data and stack and heap management
Chapter 4: Memory management system
Chapter 5: Cache memory system
Chapter 6: The trap system
Chapter 7: Data types handled by the CPU
Chapter 8: Operand specifiers and addressing
Chapter 9: Instruction formats

PART II Instruction set¶

Chapter 10: Data transfer and logical instructions
Chapter 11: Arithmetical instructions
Chapter 12: Mathematical functions
Chapter 13: Control instructions
Chapter 14: String instructions
Chapter 15: Miscellaneous instructions
Chapter 16: Special instructions
Chapter 17: Binary coded decimal instructions (Option)

Part II is organized in a logical way. You find related instructions when leafing through the neighbouring pages to a specific lookup.

The appendices contain tables of address codes, instructions, cross references, and notational conventions.

NEW INSTRUCTIONS¶

A number of new instructions are introduced with the ND-5000. These instructions also run on computer systems with the ND-500/1 and the ND-500/2 CPUs. The instructions are labelled: ('87 extension).

CPU - I/O PROCESSOR¶

The term 'CPU' is used for the ND-500 or the ND-5000 processor throughout this manual. Whenever the I/O processor is mentioned, this means the ND-100 or the ND-110 processor.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

EXAMPLES USED IN THIS MANUAL¶

Due to the large number of instruction formats and address modes available, it is not possible to illustrate more than a small fraction of the legal combinations. An attempt has been made to show the use of each format and mode at least once.

Numeric quantities are presented in decimal, octal and/or hexadecimal format. Octal numbers are followed by a 'B' and hexadecimal numbers by an 'H'. Hexadecimal numbers must always start with a decimal numeral to avoid confusion with identifiers (that is, FFH must be written as 0FFH). In this manual hexadecimal numbers are always preceded by a zero.

Absence of a following letter indicates a decimal number.

When reading examples containing word and halfword quantities displayed as octal bytes, the values in the upper bytes have to be shifted. Example:

Binary pattern:	0001000000001000010010010010010
Displayed as:	Four octal bytes:
	Two octal halfwords:
	Octal word:

Hexadecimal numbers require no shifting; the hexadecimal digits can be linked as they are, two digits per byte.

The term "word" always refers to 32-bit words. 16-bit data items (ND-100 words) are referred to as "halfwords". The term "byte" refers to 8-bit bytes.

In the figures, address values increase downwards.

1 INTRODUCTION¶

1.1 CPU Architecture and CPU Implementation¶

By introducing the ND-5000 systems, Norsk Data also introduces the ND-5000 CPU. This is the third generation of implementations of the ND-500 CPU architecture.

The CPU software architecture is still named ND-500, while the new systems, with the ND-5000 CPU implementation, are named the ND-5000 series computer systems. The concepts software architecture and implementation are outlined in Table 1.

CPU	Name	Systems
software architecture
	instruction set	ND-500
	register set
	addressing modes
	trap system
physical implementation
	ND-500/1	ND-520/540/560
	ND-500/2	ND-510/530/550/560/570/580
	ND-5000	ND-5X00

Table 1. CPU Architecture and CPU Implementation

The ND-5000 CPU runs the same instruction set, uses the same register set and the same addressing modes as the ND-500/1 and the ND-500/2 CPUs.

1.2 System Configuration¶

The ND-5000 central processing unit is part of the ND-5000 computer system. This system is a combination of an I/O processor, an ND-5000 CPU and a shared memory, see Figure 1. Until now the I/O processor has been an ND-100, but when the DOMINO I/O system is introduced, other types of I/O processors will be possible.

1.3 Communication between the I/O Processor and the CPUs¶

All or part of the memory can be shared between the CPU, the I/O processor and associated I/O devices. This allows for easy access and control by all components of the system.

The communication between the I/O processor and the CPU is set up as a mailbox and DMA transfer system. The mailbox contains 3 registers:

Control register: For the I/O processor to give the CPU a command

Status register: For the CPU to give the I/O processor status

Address register: A pointer to where in the I/O-processor memory a chain of message buffers will be found. Message buffers may contain commands or data from the I/O processor to the CPU or may be used by the CPU for storing extended status information

Some examples of commands to the CPU are context switch, reset, wait or data transfer.

The status information returned to the I/O processor reports that a job is finished, the reason for the CPU termination and the type of possible CPU malfunctions.

The CPU microprogram initiates and controls the DMA access channel to the I/O-processor memory. The communication channel is also used extensively for diagnostic and test program information. The I/O-processor is used as a diagnostic vehicle for the CPU.

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

INTRODUCTION¶

1.4 Domains, segments and processes¶

The memory in an ND-500 type system is logically structured into DOMAINS. A domain has one 32-bit address area (4 gigabytes) for executable code (the program domain) and another one for data (the data domain).

Each domain is divided into SEGMENTS, with up to 32 per domain. A segment can be up to 128 Mbytes, which is equivalent to 27 address bits. The smallest unit for access protection (write and parameter access protection) is a segment. An instruction segment may access any data segment in the domain.

Two (or more) domains may have segments in common in order to share code or data.

A sequence of operations requiring no parallel execution is called a PROCESS. A process is carried out sequentially in the CPU, but several processes started at different times may, in effect, run concurrently. The processes, however, are "time-sliced".

A process may refer to up to 256 domains of data and instructions. These are connected in a tree structure called a domain tree, specified by the process description kept by the memory management system. The links between the domains are determined at the creation of each domain. The domain closest above (that is, closer to the root) a domain D is the mother of D, and D is the child. D may itself be the mother of other child domains.

Control can be switched from one domain to another by calling a routine in the other domain, or by causing an error situation (trap condition) not taken care of by a routine in the current domain. A routine may access data in the domain from which it was called through an address prefix (ALT).

Within a domain, routines are called directly by address. Routines in other domains are called through their routine number, not by address.

Communication between processes is possible through monitor calls or through a shared data segment.

THE REGISTER BLOCK

Page 24¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

Page 25¶

2 THE REGISTER BLOCK¶

The ND-500 type CPU has four registers for program and data addressing. These are the program counter P, the L (link) register containing the subroutine return address, the local variable base register B, and the record base register R.

The four 32-bit general registers, I1, I2, I3, and I4, may be used as integer accumulators or as index registers. They are used for both word and partial word operations (halfword, byte, bit and bit field).

The A1, A2, A3, and A4 registers are 32-bit floating-point accumulators used for real number arithmetic. Each floating point accumulator may be extended with a 32-bit Extension register (E1, E2, E3 and E4), making four 64-bit floating point accumulators for double precision arithmetic.

The ND-5000 also has several special purpose registers:

ST	Status register
OTE	Own trap enable register
CTE	Child trap enable register
MTE	Mother trap enable register
TEMM	Trap enable modification mask

Table 2. 64-bit Special Purpose Registers

TOS	Top of stack register
LL	Low limit trap register
HL	High limit trap register
THA	Trap handler address register

Table 3. 32-bit Special Purpose Registers

The ST, OTE, CTE, MTE and TEMM registers are treated as two 32-bit registers when referenced in instructions. The least significant parts (bits 0:31) are called ST1, OTE1, CTE1, MTE1 and TEMM1. The most significant parts (bits 32:63) are called ST2, OTE2, CTE2, MTE2 and TEMM2.

Memory Management Utilized Registers¶

The memory management system utilizes a number of registers accessible only to the microprogram. These include:


CED	Current executing domain register
CAD	Current alternative domain register
PS	Process segment register

Each process in the system has its own copy of the CED, CAD and PS registers. PSTP is one global register for the whole system.

The context block is made up from these registers except from PSTP. In addition, it contains scratch registers named 'mic'. These are registers accessible from microprogram only, for use in macroinstructions that may be interrupted while operating on more data than are handled by the general registers.

The registers are numbered according to the table below. Note that 64-bit registers are given consecutive numbers.

STATIC DATA, STACK AND HEAP

3 STATIC DATA, STACK AND HEAP¶

When a subroutine is called, space is required to store return information and local variables. This space may be allocated

in a fixed location in memory, referenced relative to the B register or by absolute address (static allocation)

on a stack growing from low to high memory, referenced relative to the B register

in a block released from a freelist. The block may be anywhere in otherwise unused memory, referenced relative to the B register.

Static or dynamic allocation of the local data area of a routine is determined by the kind of entry point instruction, and a program system may contain a mixture of procedures with statically and dynamically allocated data areas.

The initialization of the header of the local data area is in most respects equivalent for static, stack and heap allocation. Usually, the calling procedure need not be concerned with the allocation strategy used.

3.1 Static allocation¶

Data allocated in fixed locations may be addressed by a full 32-bit address referencing any segment within the domain. Statically allocated data are not released during program execution for other use, and local variables in routines keep their values from one call to the next.

Routines with static data areas are entered through an ENTF or ENTFN instruction. Such routines are by definition non-reentrant and cannot be called recursively, but in other respects they behave like other routines. The fixed local data area is initialized as shown in figure 3. The B register is updated to point to the local data area and data references may be addressed relative to the B register, as with stack routines, and may also be addressed directly.

Trap handlers always have a fixed local data area which has a special layout discussed in chapter 6.

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

STATIC DATA, STACK AND HEAP

3.2 Stack allocation¶

A stack is initialized through the INIT or ENTM instruction, either one can declare the lowest stack address and its maximum extent. When a stack is initialized, the TOS register is loaded with the address of the first free location beyond the stack's maximum extent. TOS serves to prevent the stack from growing too large, and as a pointer to the variables describing the heap. The first free location beyond the current extent of the stack is pointed to by the B.SP location.

A new data block on the stack is allocated by executing an ENTS or ENTSN instruction. On routine entry the data block is automatically initialized as follows:

B	Description
PREVB	previous stack pointer (extent of stack)
	previous value of B register
RETA	current return address
SP	stack pointer
	(first free location)
AUX/LOG	auxiliary location for language
	processors or buddy subroutines
N	number of arguments
arg1
arg2
.
.	addresses of arguments
.
	local variable area
	(uninitialized)

	Stack pointer (B.SP)

Figure 3. Local data area layout

If the number of arguments supplied exceeds the maximum allowed by the ENTSN entry point instruction, only the maximum allowed number of argument addresses will be put on the stack and the N location will contain the value of the "maximum number of arguments" operand. (This also applies to the ENTFN instruction.)

The INIT instruction initializes the stack in a similar way, but the PREVB and RETA will be zeroed, so that an attempt to link downwards beyond the lower stack address will cause an Address Zero or Stack Underflow trap.

The ENTM instruction initializes a new stack starting from a specified address, giving the TOS register a new value. If the module called is within the current domain, the old TOS value is saved on the current.

Page 33¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

STATIC DATA, STACK AND HEAP¶

Top of the old stack, pointed to by B.SP. Initialization of the new stack is the same as for a routine entry; the base address of the previous stack block is saved in PREVB. If the module is in another domain, TOS, PREVB and RETA are stored in the domain information table and restored on return.

The ENTM is typically used for initializing a stack for the routines on a segment, being called from other segments in the same domain or from other domains. Executing the same ENTM instruction twice will overwrite the old initial values, possibly destroying the return address and other information.

Stack space is released through the RET or RETK instructions. The B register is loaded from the PREVB location. On exit from a module (a subroutine entered through ENTM) in the current domain, the TOS register is not updated; this must be done explicitly. After a domain call, TOS is restored from the domain information table.

Stack displacements (relative to the B register) are always non-negative, the displacement being the number of bytes to add to the B register. The symbols PREVB, RETA, SP, AUX and N are predefined as 0, 4, 8, 12 and 16 respectively.

Page 34¶

3.3 Heap allocation¶

When running several routines "concurrently" (see section 1.4), stack allocation of local data areas will cause problems if the routine finishing first is not the one with its data area on top of the stack.

Complex data structures like trees, lists and networks, may grow and shrink dynamically, and elements acquired during the execution of a procedure should not be released upon exit.

For both these uses, data elements may be allocated from a pool of unreserved space called the heap. The heap is described by a set of heap variables pointed to by the TOS register. The heap variables are the MAXL, STAH and ENDH locations and an array of pointers to linked lists of free elements, each block size has its own free list. The first word of an element contains the address of the next element in the list, zero indicating the end of the list. The block size is always a power of two and is indicated by the logarithm to the base two (the "log size") of the number of words.

MAXL, the first location beyond the stack, is pointed to by the TOS register and contains the maximum size of elements to be allocated. The next two locations, STAH and ENDH, are reserved for the lower and upper address limits of the pool respectively. Beyond these two locations is the array of pointers, FLOG0 to FLOG.

TOS ->
MAXL	Max log size of elements allowed
STAH	Start of heap
ENDH	End of heap
FLOG0	Head pointers for freelists of
FLOG1	elements of the different log sizes.
FLOG2	The freelist pointers have the value
FLOG3	0 if no element of the log size
.	is available.
.
FLOG

Figure 4. Layout of heap variables

The heap variables must be initialized by the user program and the user is responsible for building the lists. The STAH and ENDH variables are not used by the heap instructions, but are available for a heap administration routine implemented as a trap handler for the stack overflow trap.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 35¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

STATIC DATA, STACK AND HEAP¶

A local area for use by a subroutine may be allocated by executing the ENTB instruction. This contains an indication of the required block size. On routine entry, the address of the allocated block is loaded into the B register, and the block size is stored in the AUX/LOG location. In all other respects the local data area is initialized as for a stack routine.

A data element is allocated by the GETB instruction, which specifies the size of the desired element. The address of the element is loaded into the specified register.

If a block of the requested size is available, it is unlinked from the list. If the list head is zero, indicating that the list is empty, lists representing larger blocks are examined. If a larger block is available, it is split in halves and one half is left in the appropriate freelist. The block may have to be split several times before an element of the requested size can be given to the program. If no larger element is available, or if the requested size is larger than the MAXL value, a stack overflow trap condition occurs.

A routine entered through ENTB may release its local data area by returning through the RETB or RETBK instruction. An element acquired by the GETB may be released by the FREEB instruction.

A released element will be linked to the appropriate freelist according to the size of the element. Elements are not combined; this may be done by the trap handler for the stack overflow trap condition.

The stack overflow trap is used to signal that all lists containing blocks of wanted size or larger are empty.

Be aware that initializing a new stack by INIT or ENTM will change TOS, thus another set of heap variables will be used by the buddy instructions. The new heap variables may be initialized to the values of the old ones or to new values.

If ENTB is used to allocate space for co-routines, care should be exercised if the called routines make further calls to stack routines. When co-routines use a common stack and a second co-routine is activated before the return, the stack areas will overlap because B.SP is the same in both routines. No problems will occur if all routines in the system are entered through ENTB or if the stack routine is certain to terminate before another co-routine is activated. (Standard library routines may be used freely; they will not cause activation of other co-routines.)

No assumptions should be made about initial values of locations of stack or heap elements not explicitly mentioned in this chapter.

MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

4 MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM¶

4.1 Introduction¶

A process is a sequential computation requiring no parallel execution. A process may refer to up to 256 domains. Each domain is a full 32-bit address area for program instructions and another one for data. A process may easily access two such data domains, the so-called Current Executing Domain (CED) and the Current Alternative Domain (CAD). Instructions will always be fetched from CED, but data will be taken from CAD when the address code prefix ALT is used. If ALT is omitted, data accesses will be done in CED.

Each domain is divided into 32 logical segments with 27 address bits each. A 27-bit logical segment address is translated by the memory management system so that it addresses a location in a so-called physical segment. Physical segments contain the data and programs for the CPU. A physical segment is divided into blocks of 2k bytes called pages, and may have any size from 211 to 227 bytes in units of 2k bytes (1 page). Pages can be moved (swapped) between main memory and secondary storage as the need arises.

All physical segments in the system are described in the Physical Segment Table (PST). The PST always resides in the main memory and it is used by the translation mechanism to find the physical segment. If a physical segment consists of more than one page, an indexing mechanism is used to address the segment. Each physical segment is described by a 16-bit entry in PST.

By following this scheme each process may use up to 256*32 physical segments of program, and an equal number of physical segments of data. The structure and properties of the domains and segments of a process are kept on a special physical segment generated and maintained by supervising mechanisms. This physical segment is called the Process Segment (PS). There is one PS for each process in the CPU. The size of a PS will depend on the number of domains the process can use.

The PS of a process cannot be accessed directly by the process itself. It is used by supervising mechanisms which may be other processes, other domains or the I/O processor. Each domain used by a process has one entry in the PS.

One part of the process segment is called the domain information table. A domain information table contains 32 pointers for data (the data capability table) and 32 pointers for program (the program capability table), one pointer for each logical segment of the domain. The pointers indicate the PST entry describing the physical segment to be addressed by the logical address. Information on legal access modes for each logical segment is also kept in the domain information table, together with the pointers. One PST pointer with the corresponding legal access mode indicators is called a capability. The domain information table also contains the necessary information for the trap and domain call system.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 40¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM¶

The PS of a process will be referenced frequently when the process executes. Since the PS is an ordinary physical segment, it will be addressed through the PST entry that describes it. A pointer to the PST entry describing the PS of the executing process is kept in the PS register and is updated when a new process starts execution. The PS register is part of the process description of a process, together with the contents of the register block and some other information.

This scheme for the translation from logical to physical addressing makes it easy for different domains or processes to share data or programs. Sharing is done by having the capabilities in the different domain information tables point to the same PST entry. By doing this, the same physical segment will be addressed.

If the translation mechanism were to perform all the outlined table lookups on each memory access, the result would be unacceptably slow. A speed-up mechanism is therefore introduced. Whenever an access is completed, the number of the referenced page is stored in a cache-like Translation Speedup Buffer (TSB). The physical page number is stored together with the corresponding logical page number, the domain number and a process identification. The next time an access to the same logical page is done by the same domain, the physical page number is found in TSB without any need to perform other lookups. The index in the TSB is found by using a hashing algorithm that takes into account the logical address including the segment number, the domain number and the process identification.

The detailed description that follows is divided into the Memory Management Architecture and its Physical Implementation. The architecture section involves the transformation from logical to physical segment numbers, and includes descriptions of the capability tables and the process segment. The implementation section covers the mechanisms by which physical segments are placed and accessed in main memory. The present architecture is implemented with a paging mechanism, but no inherent property of the architecture prohibits other implementation strategies.

4.2 Memory management architecture¶

4.2.1 Address domain¶

An address has 32 bits, i.e. is in the range 0 to (2**32)-1. Instruction fetches and data references refer to different areas of the memory. If the memory request is an instruction fetch, the address value range is called a program domain. If the memory request is a data reference, the address value range is called a data domain.

A logical address domain is divided into 32 segments. The 5 upper bits of an address are the segment number and the 27 lower bits are the address within the segment.

5 bits	27 bits
Logical segment no.	Segment relative address

Figure 6. Logical address

If the program or data domain is not explicitly stated, the domain is understood to be both the program domain and its corresponding data domain.

The division of domains into segments makes different protection and cache setup possible for each segment (see figure 9).

The scheme does not, however, forbid accesses to data structures crossing segment borders as long as the access capabilities are the same for both segments.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM¶

4.2.2 Process¶

The operations of a computation must be carried out in a certain order to ensure a meaningful result. The simplest possible rule is to execute the operations one at a time in strict sequential order. This type of computation is called a process.

Information about a process is kept in the process description. The term process will hereafter mean a sequential computation described by a process description.

An ND-500 process may have up to 256 different logical domains, each comprising an address space of up to 2^32 bytes of program and 2^32 bytes of data.

The domains of a process are hierarchically structured in a tree. The closest domain above a domain D is called the mother domain of D; D is called the child. In figure 7, D and E are both child domains of B; B is their mother. A is the mother of B and C. The hierarchical structure is reflected in the process description.

     Domain A
      /    \
 Domain B  Domain C
   /  \
Domain D Domain E

Figure 7. Hierarchy of domains

Transfer of control between domains may take place by routine calls (domain calls) or enabled traps. Routine calls may transfer control to any of the domains of the process. The child-to-mother links are followed when a trap occurs in a child domain and no trap handler is defined locally in the child domain.

Parameter transfer between different domains is performed by the alternative address mode. (See section about addressing modes.) When a routine in domain A calls a routine in domain B, domain A is set as alternative domain to B and operands accessed via alternative address mode are accessed in domain A.

More extensive data exchanges and exchanges between arbitrary domains are done by letting the domains have one or more data segments in common.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 44¶

4.2.3 Process environment¶

The memory management system needs information about existing processes. This information resides on a physical segment, the Process Segment. This segment is not directly accessible to the process, but is used by microcode routines and by supervising mechanisms, which may be other processes, other domains or the I/O processor. There is one process segment for each process; the number of this segment is held in the Process Segment register (PS). For each domain owned by the process, the process segment contains one domain information table which consists of

the program capability table
the data capability table
domain call information
trap handling information

4.2.3.1 Process registers¶


CED	Current Executing Domain
CAD	Current Alternative Domain
PS	Process Segment

Figure 8. Memory management registers

Some information about a process is used so frequently by the memory management system that it must be kept in hardware registers while the process is executing. The three registers CED, CAD and PS are part of the process description of the running process, i.e. the registers' contents are saved and loaded when the process is changed.

The Current Executing Domain register holds the current domain number of the currently executing process. When a domain call is performed, or when a trap condition is not own but mother enabled, the domain number of the calling domain is stored in the Current Alternative Domain register. CAD is used with the alternative addressing mode.

4.2.3.2 Capability tables¶

Each domain has two capability tables, one for instructions and one for data. Each table has 32 elements, one for each segment in the domain. Each element consists of 16 bits, numbered from 0 to 15. Such an element is called a capability, and it specifies the physical segment number and its access rights. A program capability has a layout different from a data capability.

In a program capability, bit 15 indicates whether the segment is in the current domain or not. If the bit is zero, the segment is in the current domain. A segment not in the current domain, called an indirect segment, has bit 14 set if the physical segment resides in

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 45¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM¶

Another machine, otherwise it is reset. The capability of an indirect segment contains the logical domain and segment numbers of another segment, and the physical segment number is found in the capability of that segment.

In a data capability, bit 15 indicates write permission. If this bit is reset, the segment is a read-only segment. Bit 14 indicates whether routines in other domains may refer to this segment through the ALT prefix. Violation of the protection set by these two bits causes a protect violation trap. Bit 13 is set if the physical segment is shared between different domains or different processes. If a segment is shared, data will always be read from main memory rather than from cache to ensure that different processes are aware of each other's updating of a data item.

Direct program segments and data segments contain the physical segment number in the lower 13 bits.

Program segment capability:
a) Direct segment
1 bit
direct (=0)

b) Indirect segment
1 bit
indirect (=1)

Data segment capability:

4.2.3.3 Domain Information¶

When performing domain calls and trap handling, some extra table space is needed for each domain. The first part of a domain information is made up of 2 capability tables. The next part has two save areas: one used when performing domain calls, and one used during trap handling. The last part holds the domain characteristics.

All the above constitute one domain information table. This table is followed by an unused area to a total size of 256 bytes.

The "category" column below uses the following abbreviations:

Category	Description
M	set by hardware at domain call
T	set by hardware at trap handling
O	set by operating system and read by hardware

4.2.4 Logical addressing¶

A logical address consists of the logical segment number and the segment relative address. The memory management system will transform the logical segment number to a physical segment number. The segment relative address is relative to the start of the physical segment.

The logical segment number is used as an index in the capability table. The addressed element in this table gives the physical segment number.

4.2.5 Domain communication¶

Within the domain hierarchy of the process, program control may change from one domain to another. Data may be accessed in either the called or the calling domain. In this section change of control and communication between different domains are described.

4.2.5.1 Alternative domain¶

The alternative domain is used when accessing and returning parameters from or to a calling domain. The calling domain is set as the alternative to the called domain by loading its number into the CAD register. This is done by hardware at a domain call. Access to operands in the alternative domain is by the alternative address code prefix, ALT(). When using the ALT address code prefix, only the final data access goes to the alternative domain; indirect addresses and descriptors are taken from the current domain. (See the chapter on operand specifiers and addressing modes for further explanation.)

The calling domain may protect its data from illegal access from other domains by resetting the parameter access bit of its capability. This is done through monitor calls.

4.2.5.2 Domain calls and monitor calls¶

From one domain, a routine on any other domain of the process may be called through the CALL and CALLG instructions. This is only possible if an indirect capability to that domain has been set up. This is indicated by bit 15 being set in the capability of the segment. An indirect capability is set up through monitor calls. An indirect segment resides in another domain than the current one. A call to a routine on such a segment implies a change of domain, and is referred to as a domain call.

Domain calls to supervising domain routines performing specific functions are called monitor calls. Service requests to the operating system are implemented as monitor calls.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 49¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM¶

| capability of calling domain | called domain |

Figure 10. Indirect segment

The new domain and segment number are taken from the capability of the calling segment. The P and B registers, domain number and alternative domain number of the calling domain are saved in the domain information table of the called domain. When a subroutine is called, certain initializations of the local data field are made. (See the CALL, CALLG and ENTIM instructions.) The return address and old base register field of the local data field of the new routine are filled with zeroes.

The new domain number is loaded into the Current Executing Domain register and the number of the calling domain is loaded into the Current Alternative Domain register.

The lower 27 bits of the routine address are not interpreted as within the segment an address. Instead they are taken as an index in the start address vector at segment address zero on the new segment. The first word is the length of the vector, which is the number of routines on the segment. If the index is less than this word, the indexed element in the vector contains the address of the routine entry point. Otherwise the call is illegal and causes an instruction sequence error trap condition. The routines on the segment are numbered starting from zero.

Figure 11. Program segment layout

On jumps to another domain, a new stack has to be set up in the called domain. Therefore, the subroutine address must be the address of an ENTM instruction. When an ENTM is entered from another domain, B.PREVB and B.RETA will be cleared. Other entry point types will not properly initialize the stack.

When the new domain is entered, TOS is not saved on top of the old stack. The TOS, THA, LL and HL registers will be saved in the old domain information table and the new contents of these registers are loaded from the new domain information table.

Control reverts to the calling domain when either the return address, the old base register, or both is zero when a return instruction is executed. On return from a domain call, the registers CED, CAD, P and B are loaded from the old domain information table. The registers TOS, THA, LL, HL and TE are loaded from the new domain information table.

Note that return information is not stacked in the domain information table. Calling the same domain twice without return in between, will cause an instruction sequence error trap condition. The memory management system will zeroize the return address and B register value in the domain information table at a domain call return to indicate that a call to the domain may be done. If it is non-zero a domain call is in progress.

A return instruction with 0 in PREVB or RETA will only change domains if there is a domain to return to. If CAD is unequal to CED and non-zero, return is to the domain saved in the domain information table. Otherwise the return will be performed to address 0 in the current domain. This may cause a stack underflow trap condition.

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM¶

4.2.5.3 Trap handling¶

When a trap condition occurs, the procedure described in chapter 6 on traps will determine if a trap handler routine is to be called, and in that case which domain has a handler for the offending trap. If the trap is handled by a mother domain, the new domain number is loaded into the CED register. The old CED and CAD are saved in the domain information table of the mother domain. CAD is loaded with CED of the trapping domain.

The status register is saved into the domain information table of the trapped domain, and upon return the non-ignorable and fatal bits and bits 0 to 8 are reloaded.

When the system trap handler returns, the new trap enable register contents are taken from the domain information table of the trapped domain.

Trap handler startup and stack initializations take place in the same way as when invoking a local trap handler. See chapter 6 for further explanation. The new trap enable register contents are taken from the domain information table of the mother domain, except that OTE is cleared by hardware at the ENTT instruction and restored when a RETT is executed.

4.3 Physical Implementation¶

Physical main memory size may be up to 2**41 bytes, divided into 2048-byte pages. The page size of 2048=2**11 implies 2**30 pages, or a 30-bit page number.

The memory management system has a bit map with two bits per physical page, set if the page is or has been written to. If the page has been written to, it must be copied back to mass storage before it is replaced with another one. The table size is 2*(2**30) bits, and it is accessible to microcode and privileged processes only.

The memory management system maintains a Physical Segment Table Pointer (PSTP) pointing to the start of the Physical Segment Table. This table contains a 4-byte entry for each physical segment, giving the page number of a data page or an index page.

If the Physical Segment Table entry is 0, this means that no mapping exists for the logical address that needs translation. This is a page fault trap condition.


PSTP	memory
	Physical Segment Table

Figure 12. Physical segment table

The access method, directly by physical page number, or indexed once or twice, depends on the size of the segment. Bits 30-31 of an element in the physical segment table hold information about access method.

Direct access restricts the segment size to 2 Kbytes. Single indexing allows 512 pages, or 1 megabytes maximum segment size. Larger segments use double indexing, the maximum size of which (2**31 bytes) exceeds the maximum segment size.

The capability table holds the physical segment numbers of all logical segments in a domain. The capabilities are found on the segment specified by the process segment register (PS) of the process. On this segment, the currently executing domain register (CED) selects a 256 byte domain information table which includes the capability tables. The current logical segment number selects an entry in the capability table. This table entry contains the physical segment number of the referenced segment.

MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

4.4 Buffering¶

Translation from logical to physical address is complicated and requires several memory accesses. To reduce the number of accesses, the most recently used logical page number (the upper 21 address bits), domain number and the process number are saved together with the corresponding physical page number and the permit bits of the corresponding capability. Later references to the same page may then avoid referencing the capability table, the physical segment table and the index pages.

The table used to hold this information is the Translation Speedup Buffer (TSB). The domain and process numbers are also stored. Therefore it is not necessary to clear the buffer when changing domain or process.

When access to memory is performed, the actual process number, domain number and logical page number are compared to the TSB counterparts pointed at by the index. If they are equal, no further table lookup is necessary and the physical page number in the translation speedup buffer is used. If they are not equal, the memory management system will update the TSB once the necessary information has been found.

Further details on the translation speedup buffer are found in the manual ND-5000 Hardware Description (ND-05.020).

CACHE MEMORY SYSTEM¶

5 CACHE MEMORY SYSTEM¶

The ND-500 CPU and the ND-5000 CPU have different cache memory implementation. Consult the manuals ND-500/2 Hardware Description (ND-05.015) and ND-5000 Hardware Description (ND-05.020) for details.

The speed of the CPU is considerably higher than the speed of primary memory; if several memory accesses are required to complete an instruction, the CPU may be spending most of its time waiting for data to be loaded into registers. To reduce the time spent waiting, the most recently used data are kept in high speed buffer memory, where data are available to the CPU in a fraction of the time required for a main memory access. This buffer is called a cache. For economic reasons the cache is comparatively small, and sophisticated circuitry is employed to determine which data elements should be allotted space in the cache.

When data residing in the cache is updated without updating the corresponding memory location, the cache item is marked 'dirty'. Thus, such items should be dumped when the cache is cleared in order to maintain data consistency.

The effective memory access time as seen from the CPU is a function of several factors: The size and speed of the cache, main memory access time and the average percentage of data accesses where the requested data is available in the cache without further delay ("hit rate").

To prevent instructions and data located at the same cache address from constantly displacing each other when a loop is executed, instructions and data have separate cache systems.

6 THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

6.1 General¶

It is an advantage to be able to detect special situations arising during program execution, such as attempts to divide numbers by zero in a program performing many arithmetic divisions. Such checks may be made by software, but will require explicit programming. The CPU performs a number of checks automatically on every arithmetic operation, showing errors that would otherwise go unnoticed. Errors caught this way are said to be trapped. Situations leading to a possible trap are called trap conditions. A trap condition may or may not lead to a trap, depending on whether the trap is enabled. The above case is called a divide by zero trap condition.

Other examples of trap conditions are floating point overflow, illegal index and stack overflow.

For most trap conditions, it is possible to choose whether the trap is to be acted upon (i.e. enabled) or not. If a trap is to be acted upon, a trap handler routine will be entered.

Trap conditions are divided into three categories depending on the way they are treated by hardware.

Ignorable trap conditions
Non-ignorable trap conditions
Fatal trap conditions

Ignorable trap conditions do not require any handling; they may be disabled and will have no effect on program execution. Non-ignorable trap conditions require some kind of handling. If the current domain does not have a handler for it, the trap is propagated to the mother domain. After handling, program execution may continue.

Fatal trap conditions make it impossible to continue execution of the process. The CPU will report to the I/O processor, which will take appropriate action depending on the kind of trap.

The CPU status register has one bit for each possible trap condition. When a trap condition occurs, this bit is set. The same bit is reset when a trap handler routine is invoked.

Status bits representing non-ignorable and fatal trap conditions will always yield a zero result (bit reset) if explicitly tested. It is not meaningful to perform a conditional jump on these bits, as the condition is always false.

Page 64¶

6.2 Trap handler routines¶

Most traps may be handled by a routine in the CPU. Every domain can have its own routines for the trap conditions allowed by its mother domain. If it does not take care of the trap itself, control may be transferred to the mother domain.

The mother may handle the situation, or hand it over to her mother. At the top of the domain tree is the operating system, and the I/O processor is the "great grandmother" of all domains, ensuring there will always be at least one domain responsible for taking care of a trap propagated from lower levels. For example, a trap condition encountered during the running of a user program may be handled in the user domain, in one of the mother domains between the user domain and the root of the tree, in the operating system domain, or in the I/O processor.

After a trap situation has been taken care of, control will normally return to the instruction following that which caused the trap; for some trap conditions, the trapped instruction will be repeated or resumed. Note that the calling sequence prior to the trap situation may be totally unrelated to the mother/child links.

6.3 Searching for a trap handler¶

Three registers in the CPU are used for trap enabling: The Own Trap Enable (OTE), the Mother Trap Enable (MTE) and the Child Trap Enable (CTE) registers. Each domain has its own copy of these registers.

If a bit in OTE is set, the domain has a trap handler routine for the corresponding trap conditions occurring within the domain, and this routine will be called when a trap occurs. If the MTE bit is set, the mother (or grandmother etc.) domain of the trapping domain has a trap handler routine for this trap condition. If the corresponding bit in OTE is reset, this routine will be called.

A bit set in the CTE indicates that this domain has a trap handler routine to be used when the corresponding trap condition occurs in child domains, unless taken care of locally within the child domain.

MTE is not program modifiable. The system sets a bit in a domain's MTE if any of the mother domains in the tree structure have the corresponding bit set in their CTE register.

in M : CTE reset => trap propagated further
in G : CTE set => trap handled in G

Figure 17. Trap propagation

The I/O processor will always be the mother of the upper domain. Trap conditions are always enabled in the I/O processor. Non-ignorable trap conditions may be enabled in the CPU and handled by some program in the CPU. If they are not, they will be reported to the I/O processor. Fatal trap conditions are always reported directly to the I/O processor.

When a domain is created, it is given a Trap Enable Modification Mask (TEMM) from its mother. This mask specifies which bits in OTE the domain is allowed to change by either setting or resetting it. An attempt to change a bit in OTE, that is to reset in TEMM, will be ignored, while a change in an OTE bit that is set in the TEMM will have the desired effect.

THE TRAP SYSTEM

6.4 Trap handler data field¶

The Trap Handler Address register (THA) points to the base of an array in data memory, containing the start addresses of the trap handler routines in program memory. The Nth element of this array must hold the start address of the routine to handle the Nth trap condition. The area after the start address vector is used as a local data field for the invoked trap handler routine. This data field is filled by the ENTT instruction (see section 13.10).

Local data field heading (5 words)

Figure 19. Trap handler start address and local data field

When a trap handler is invoked, trapping P (the address of the instruction that caused the trap condition), the register block, and information about the trap are saved in the local data area of the trap handler.

The P register saved in B.ARG2 holds the address of the instruction to be executed when the trap condition has been taken care of. Trapping P and the saved P register will be equal if the trap is handled before the instruction is executed. The instruction causing the trap will then be re-executed. If the trap is handled after the instruction is executed, the saved P register will point to the next instruction.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 68¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

The trap handler data area is not re-entrant, due to the fixed location. As long as a trap is being handled, another trap condition should not arise in the same domain. The Own Trap Enable register (OTE) is therefore cleared, forcing propagation to the mother domain of any trap condition occurring during trap handler execution. The OTE register is reloaded from the domain information table on return from the trap handler.

A mother domain which itself is inside a trap handler will not be entered to handle a trap for one of its child domains. A trap in that case not handled locally in the child domain will be propagated to its grandmother.

When a trap handler is invoked, the status register (ST) is saved in the domain information table of the domain where the trap occurred. The layout and use of this table is described in more detail in the Memory Management section. If the trap condition is not handled by a local trap handler routine, an identification of the domain where the trap condition occurred is also saved in this table. Before the trap handler is entered, the status bit causing the trap is cleared.

Status register bits representing ignorable trap conditions may be modified during running of the trap handler routine. Status bits representing non-ignorable and fatal trap conditions may not be modified. Setting a trap bit will cause a new trap immediately on return to the trapped routine. If several trap bits are set, several trap handlers will be called in sequence according to their bit numbers in the status register (highest numbered ones first).

Modification of status bits is done by changing the status word in the saved register block. Upon trap handler return, this status word is "merged" with the saved status word in the domain information table and loaded into the status register. Unmodifiable status bits will contain their original values when the process continues.

If several traps to be handled before or during instruction execution occur together, only the highest numbered one is handled. All other enabled traps that are of the type before and during, are cleared on trap handler return, before the instruction is re-executed. The re-execution may cause these traps again, and they will be handled normally. A trap handled after instruction execution will cause all enabled before traps and all enabled during traps to be cleared when the status register is loaded. Traps not enabled will be not be cleared in either case.

THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

6.5 The status register¶

There are 64 bits in the status register. 40 of these bits are currently defined. The status bits are grouped as follows:

Data status bits
Tracing status bits
Instruction and operand reference status bits
Signalling, synchronization and miscellaneous status bits
System error status bits

6.5.1 Data status bits¶

Code	Name	Bit no.
Z	zero	5
C	carry	6
S	sign	7
O	overflow	9
IVO	invalid operation	11
DZ	divide by zero	12
FU	floating underflow	13
FO	floating overflow	14
BO	BCD overflow	15

Table 7. Data status bits

The data status bits hold information about the operand or result of the last executed operation on data. The majority of control and special instructions, including conditional jump instructions, leave the data status bits unaffected.

In the description of the instruction set, the effect on the data status bits are listed with every instruction. Bits that are set, reset or left unaffected are mentioned explicitly. All data status bits not mentioned are reset.

The Z, C, and S status bits have no corresponding trap conditions. They are only used for conditional jumps. All other data status bits are ignorable trap conditions. If trapping is not enabled, these bits may be tested with conditional jump instructions.

Z : The Zero bit is set if the operand/result of the last instruction was exactly zero. Otherwise it is cleared. Floating underflow is an exception; then the Z-bit in all cases, except in the POLY and IXI instructions.

S : The Sign bit of the status register holds the sign bit of the last operand/result.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 70¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

C¶

The Carry bit may be set only when performing integer arithmetic; otherwise it is cleared. The C bit is set if a carry out of or borrowing into the most significant bit occurs. The contents of the carry bit are also used by the ADDC, SUBC and INVC instructions.

O¶

Integer Overflow may be set only when performing integer arithmetic; otherwise it is cleared. The O bit is set if the result of the operation is too large to be represented in the destination or register. It will occur in an integer addition when the sign bits of the two addends are equal, and the sign bit of the result is different from those of the addends. Note that subtraction is an addition of the two's complement of the subtrahend. In multiplication, integer overflow occurs when the destination is not large enough to hold the product. In case of overflow, the S and Z bits are set according to the actual result of the operation, rather than to the theoretical value. The least significant 32 bits of the extended result will be stored in the destination operand.

IVO¶

InValid Operation. One example of this is executing a square root instruction with a negative argument. It will cause an invalid operation trap condition.

DZ¶

Divide by Zero trap. A division with zero will leave the largest possible value in the destination with the sign of the dividend, unless the dividend is also zero. Zero divided by zero gives a result of zero.

FU¶

Floating Underflow will occur if a negative exponent requires more than 9 bits to be represented. A value of zero will be stored in the destination, with the sign of the result as it would appear when calculated in unlimited format. An underflow trap in a long instruction, like POLY, will occur at the completion of instruction execution, even if the underflow occurred at an intermediate step.

FO¶

Floating Overflow will occur in floating arithmetic if the result of an operation is too large to be represented in the floating point format, i.e. a signed exponent requiring more than 9 bits. The largest possible floating point value will be stored in the destination, with the sign of the result as it would appear when calculated in unlimited format. An overflow trap in a long instruction, like POLY, will occur at the completion of instruction execution, even if the overflow occurred at an intermediate step.

BO¶

BCD Overflow. The destination field in a packed decimal instruction was not wide enough to hold the result of an operation. (BCD arithmetic is a hardware option.)

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

6.5.2 Tracing status bits¶

Code	Name	Bit no.
SIT	single instruction trap	17
BT	branch trap	18
CT	call trap	19
BPT	breakpoint instruction trap	20

Table 8. Tracing status bits

All the tracing status bits are ignorable trap conditions. They are valuable tools for debugging programs and performance evaluation.

SIT : Single Instruction Trap. This trap condition is caused when the execution of an instruction has terminated. With this trap condition, it is possible to step through a program one instruction at a time.

BT : Branch Trap condition occurs when the next instruction to be executed is other than the one immediately following the last executed instruction; e.g. after a GO, JUMPQ, RET, LOOP or conditional jump instruction. The trap condition does not occur if the test in the conditional jump is false and no jump is made.

CT : Call Trap condition occurs immediately after execution of a call subroutine instruction.

BPT : BreakPoint instruction Trap condition occurs when a breakpoint instruction (BP) is executed. If BPT is not enabled, a BP instruction will cause an IIC trap condition.

If several enabled trace trap conditions occur, the CPU handles the one with the highest priority first. Trace traps are listed from high to low priority in the following order:

Break Point Trap
Call Trap
Branch Trap
Single Instruction Trap

The tracing status bits are always reset when execution of the next instruction starts, even if they are not trap enabled. This means these bits are used for trapping purposes only, since they will always yield a zero result if explicitly tested.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 72¶

6.5.3 Instruction and operand reference status bits¶

Code	Name	Bit no.
IOV	illegal operand value	16
ATF	address trap fetch	21
ATR	address trap read	22
ATW	address trap write	23
AZ	address zero access	24
DR	descriptor range	25
IX	illegal index	26
STO	stack overflow	27
STU	stack underflow	28
XSE	index scaling error	32
IIC	illegal instruction code	33
IOS	illegal operand specifier	34
ISE	instruction sequence error	35
PV	protect violation	36
THM	trap handler missing	37
PGF	page fault	38

Table 9. Instruction and operand reference status bits

These status bits are all trap conditions. Most are ignorable, but XSE, IIC, IOS, ISE and PV are considered so serious that they are defined as non-ignorable. THM and PGF are defined as fatal. All trap conditions result from the decoding and accessing of instructions and operands.

Non-ignorable and fatal trap condition status bits are always zero when tested from a program, consequently they can be used only for trapping purposes. Ignorable trap condition status bits may be used either for trapping purposes or for explicit program testing (conditional jumps).

6.5.3.1 Ignorable trap conditions¶

IOV : Illegal Operand Value. Operand values exceeding the legal range, e.g. in the bit field and call subroutine instructions, may cause an Illegal Operand Value trap condition. This status bit is set/reset in all instructions where a limit is given for the operand values.

On the IOV trap condition the destination field is not changed.

If the IOV trap condition is ignored the instruction will be terminated (act as a NOOP instruction).

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 73¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

The CPU has Low Limit (LL) and High Limit (HL) 32-bit registers for protecting program and data. These two registers are compared to the logical program and data address for each memory reference. If the actual logical address referenced is unsigned greater than the LL register and less than or equal to the HL register, a trap condition occurs whose type is determined by the current memory reference. (Memory reference type may be fetch, read, or write access.)

The memory is accessed in 1, 2, 3, or 4-byte units starting on any byte address. It is the starting address of the access that is checked against LL and HL. Bytes inside the area defined for address trapping by the LL and HL registers will therefore be accessed without causing a trap condition if: 1. the access starts at LL-1 and is 2, 3, or 4 bytes long, 2. the access starts at LL-2 and is 3 or 4 bytes long, or 3. the access starts at LL-3 and is 4 bytes long.

These registers are used during program development and debugging for tracing access to a specific location/data block or execution of a routine or instruction sequence. The LL and HL registers are properties of the domain. If a routine call causes transfer to another domain the local LL and HL values will be in effect for the duration of the call.

If enabled, program tracing takes precedence over data tracing; if both ATF and ATR/ATW traps are enabled ATF will be trapped, and ATR/ATW trap conditions are ignored. If ATF is enabled, ATR and ATW bits in the status register are cleared when memory is accessed, even if data accesses are within the guarded area. If ATF is disabled, ATR and ATW bits are set in the status register and may cause a trap if ATR or ATW is enabled.

If LL=HL no traps will occur. If HL<LL access from 0 to HL or greater than LL will be trapped; access to addresses from HL+1 to LL will not be trapped. In a multi-operand instruction, any of the operands may cause a trap. The specified address determines its legality; a multi-byte operand value (halfword, word, float, doublefloat or descriptor) may extend into the protected area without being trapped.

The trap conditions are handled after instruction execution; data are loaded or stored before the trap handler is invoked.

Code	Description
ATF	A program reference within the memory area guarded by the LL and HL registers will cause an Address Trap Fetch condition. The ATF status bit is set/reset at the end of each instruction.
ATR	If the current memory reference is a read reference to the data area guarded by the LL and HL registers, an Address Trap Read trap condition will arise. The ATR bit is set/reset at the end of each instruction with data memory reference.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 74¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

The Trap System¶

ATW¶

If the current memory reference is a write reference to the area guarded by the LL and HL registers, it will cause an Address Trap Write trap condition. The ATW bit is set/reset at the end of each instruction with data memory reference. The store is performed.

AZ¶

An address equal to zero will cause an Address Zero trap condition. INIT will set B.PREVB to zero, causing an AZ trap condition if attempts are made to link to a data block below the bottom of the stack. A jump to address zero will also cause an AZ trap condition. The AZ bit is set/reset for each instruction with memory access.

DR¶

Addressing via a descriptor may cause a Descriptor Range trap condition. This occurs if the contents of the index register is negative or greater than or equal to the maximum number of elements (length) described by the descriptor length word. A Descriptor Range trap condition will also occur if an empty string (length zero) is used in a string or BCD (packed decimal) instruction.

The DR bit is set/reset at the end of all string instructions or instructions with descriptor addressing (see section 8.15) with memory access. The index register is incremented even if a trap condition occurs.

IX¶

The LIND and CIND instructions allow loading and calculating an array index and check that it does not exceed the array dimensions. If it does, it causes an Illegal index trap condition. The IX bit is set/reset by the LIND and CIND instructions.

STO¶

When the contents of a new stack pointer (B.SP) in a stack subroutine call are greater than or equal to the contents of the TOS (top of stack register), a STack Overflow trap condition occurs. Stack overflow may also occur on execution of the GETB or ENTB instructions if there are no free data blocks of the requested size or larger. INIT and ENTM cause stack overflow if main program stack demand is greater than system stack demand. The STO status bit is set/reset for each ENTS, ENTSN, ENTB, INIT, ENTM and GETB instruction.

STU¶

Performing a subroutine return instruction with RETA, PREVB or both equal to zero leads to a STack Underflow trap condition if there is no alternative domain (CAD zero or equal to CED) This status bit is set/reset at each return from a stack subroutine. This trap condition is also used to return control to the operating system when a program terminates (unless it is taken care of locally within the domain where the trap occurred).

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

6.5.3.2 Non-ignorable trap conditions¶

XSE : Index Scaling Error. The index exceeds 32 bits after post-index scaling.

IIC : Illegal Instruction Code. Undefined code, privileged instruction with the PIA status bit reset or execution of a BP instruction with the BPT trap disabled.

IOS : Illegal Operand Specifier. Constant operands as destination, ALT prefix on routine argument, type conflict between instruction and operands or non-constant number of arguments to call and polynomial instructions. Also, some special instructions (TSET, RDUS) do not allow register or constant operands.

ISE : Instruction Sequence Error. Illegal subroutine entry point, illegal domain call nesting or execution of an entry point instruction without coming directly from a subroutine call instruction.

PV : Protect Violation. This trap occurs when the segment access code in the capability table (see section 4.2.3) is violated.

6.5.3.3 Fatal trap conditions¶

THM : Trap Handler Missing. The location pointed to by the trap handler vector does not contain an ENTT instruction, or the ENTT operands contain values causing non-ignorable traps.

PGF : Page Fault. This trap may be caused by all instructions, and is a signal to the I/O processor that another page has to be swapped in from backing storage. If a page fault arises with the process switch disabled, it will cause a disable process switch error trap. Page fault is also caused if a memory management table lookup gives zero as result.

6.5.4 Signalling, synchronization and miscellaneous status bits¶

Code	Name	Bit no.
K	flag	8
PRT	programmed trap	29
PIA	privileged instructions allowed	1
PD	part done	2
IR	instruction reference	3
PSD	process switch disabled	4
DT	disable process switch timeout	30
DE	disable process switch error	31

K : Flag. The flag bit is used for signalling purposes. There are special instructions for setting, resetting and testing this condition. The K flag is also used by instructions using descriptor addressing (see section 8.15) to indicate that the last element in the array is accessed, in the LIND and CIND instructions an illegal index, to indicate and in string instructions to indicate termination conditions. CIND, LIND and string instructions will always leave a status in K regardless of its previous value, while descriptor addressing may set but never clear the K flag.

PRT : PRogrammed Trap. A process in the CPU may interrupt another process by setting the second process' programmed trap status bit, which acts as a trap condition for this purpose. If the PRT trap is enabled, the trapped process will immediately be interrupted and its trap handler invoked. If the process is not in the active state, as soon as it becomes active the trap will occur. If the process switch is disabled in the machine where the trapped process resides, the trap will occur as soon as the process switch is enabled.

The PRT bit is set through monitor calls. A process may trap itself by setting the PRT bit in the status register.

PIA : Privileged Instructions Allowed. Privileged instructions can only be executed when this bit is set; other attempts to execute privileged instructions will cause an illegal instruction code trap condition. This bit may not be changed by instructions. It is defined in the domain information table.

PD : Part Done. This bit is used by the microprogram in long interruptable instructions to indicate if the instruction is to be restarted, e.g. after page fault in string instructions.

IR : Instruction Reference. This is used by the paging system microprogram to indicate if there was a page fault on an instruction or on a data reference.

THE TRAP SYSTEM¶

The CPU has protection against bad synchronization procedures. Synchronization procedures can execute with the process switch disable status bit set. If this bit is set for more than 256 microcycles (including the 2 spent in the SOLO instruction), a process switch timeout trap condition occurs. Most simple instructions, like load, store, and simple arithmetic, execute in one microcycle per operand specifier. When executing with the process switch disable set, non-ignorable traps (such as page fault) that require process switching must not occur. If they do occur, they cause a disable process switch error trap condition.

Ignorable trap conditions are ignored in SOLO-TUTTI sequences regardless of enabling of these traps.

Code	Description
PSD	Process Switch Disabled. The process switch disable bit is only modifiable by the SOLO and TUTTI instructions.
DT	Disable process switch Timeout. Timeout occurs if the process switch has been disabled for more than 256 microcycles.
DE	Disable process switch Error. Occurs if a non-ignorable process switch (such as Page Fault) occurs while the process switch is disabled.

6.5.5 System error status bits¶

Code	Name	Bit no.
PWF	power failure	39
PRF	processor fault	40
HF	hardware fault	41

The system error status bits are all fatal CPU traps. On detection, they are reported directly to the I/O processor.

PWF : Power failure.

PRF : Processor fault. This is a fatal hardware error, caused by failure of microprogram sequencing. PRF is not implemented on the ND-5000.

HF : Hardware fault. This may signify one or more of:

TSB parity error
Cache data parity error
Cache directory error
Memory parity error
Memory timeout error

HF is not implemented on the ND-5000.

6.5.6 Addressing traps¶

In the instruction descriptions, the term addressing traps is used as a common name for all traps that may occur during operand fetching or instruction addressing. Most instructions may cause these traps, which include:

Address Trap Fetch
Address Trap Read
Address Trap Write
Address Zero trap
Protect Violation
Descriptor Range trap
Illegal index
Index Scaling Error
Illegal Operand Specifier

6.5.7 Status bits survey¶

A survey of the status bits is shown in table 10 on page 66. The "trap type" column indicates the trap type using the following abbreviations:

S - status bit, no corresponding trap condition
I - ignorable trap
N - non-ignorable trap, i.e., the sequential execution of the program is interrupted and control is passed to a trap handler
F - fatal CPU error, i.e., another processor in the system must solve the trap condition

A special case exists for the 'trap handler missing' trap. This trap is non-ignorable if a trap handler for this exception exists somewhere in the hierarchy of domains running in this processor. The condition is fatal if no such handler exists.

The "modifiable" column indicates whether the status bit is modifiable by software.

The third column indicates whether the trap is handled before, during, or after the current executing instruction:

Timing	Description
Before	The instruction has not stored any results before the trap occurs. If the execution of the program may be resumed after handling the trap, the instruction will have to be executed once more. The P register and the Trapping P location in the trap handler local data area are of equal value.
During	This is the same as "Before" except for some instructions partially executed before the trap occurs and which may continue after being restarted. (String, block move and fill, call, enter, and return instructions) Instructions with one destination operand will not have stored a result, but destinations in multiple destination operand instructions have unpredictable values. If the instruction is to be restarted, the trap handler should not modify the saved register block.
After	The instruction causing the trap is completed and results stored before the trap occurs. If the execution of the program is resumed after the trap the next instruction is executed. The P register contains the address of the next instruction; the Trapping P location in the trap handler local data area contains the address of the instruction causing the trap.

7 DATA TYPES¶

7.1 Introduction¶

Programs and data are always stored in separate logical address spaces, referred to as the program memory and the data memory. Instructions are always stored in the program memory and operands usually in the data memory. Because the program memory functions as a read-only memory during program execution, instructions are protected from alteration.

Most instructions perform operations on operands. There are three categories of operands:

Register operands
Variable operands residing in data memory
Constants residing in program memory, as a part of the instruction using them

7.2 Data types¶

The ND-500 instruction set handles several basic data types: Bit, byte, halfword, word, float, doublefloat and packed decimal (BCD), abbreviated as BI, BY, H, W, F, D and P respectively. (Packed decimal is a hardware option.) Operations may also be performed on bit fields of varying lengths. In addition there are instructions allowing operations on arrays of BI, BY, H, W, F and D data. A large number of string instructions allow easy manipulation of character strings (byte arrays).

7.2.1 Bit¶

As the ND-500 is byte addressable, a bit is specified by its byte address. The specified bit is the rightmost bit (bit 0, the least significant bit) in the addressed byte. By post-indexing or special instructions, it is possible to address bits other than bit zero.

An operand of type bit is a single bit, which is always treated as unsigned. The GETBF (get bit field) and PUTBF (put bit field) instructions operate on variable length (1 to 32 bits) bit fields. Note that these instructions treat the bit fields as signed quantities, even if they are only one bit long.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 84¶

7.2.2 Byte¶

7	0

A byte is 8 contiguous bits starting at any byte boundary. The bits are numbered from the right, 0 to 7. Bit 0 is the least significant. A byte may be interpreted either as a signed or as an unsigned integer. Signed byte values are in the range -128 to +127, represented in two's complement form. Unsigned byte values are in the range 0 to 255. Unsigned values may be interpreted as characters in any 8 bit (or less) character set, and instructions are available to set, check or clear the parity bit (bit 7) of a byte.

7.2.3 Halfword¶

15	0

A halfword is 2 contiguous bytes, 16 bits, starting at any byte boundary. The bits are numbered from the right, 0 to 15. Bit 0 is the least significant. Like a byte, a halfword may be interpreted either as a signed or unsigned integer, in the range

-32768 (-(2**15)) to +32767 ((2**15)-1) in two's complement form, or

0 to 65535 ((2**16)-1) respectively.

7.2.4 Word¶

31	0

A word is 32 bits, or 4 contiguous bytes, starting at any byte boundary. It may be used as an unsigned integer in the range

0 to 4294967295 ((2**32)-1),

or as a two's complement integer in the range

-2147483648 (-(2**31)) to +2147483647 ((2**31)-1).

DATA TYPES¶

7.2.5 Single precision floating point¶

31	30	22	21	0

sign : exponent : mantissa

A single-precision floating point number is represented by a mantissa of 22+1 bits, a binary exponent of 9 bits with a bias of 256 and a sign bit. The range is +/-8.6(10(-78)) to +/-5.8(10**76) and exactly 0, with an accuracy of approximately 7 decimal digits. An operand with exponent = 0 is treated as exactly zero, with no respect to the sign nor the mantissa. Minus zero (all but bit 31 zero) will only be returned from an operation generating floating underflow.

The smallest ΔX to be added to 1.0 is 1.19209318010*-6.

7.2.6 Double precision floating point¶

63	62	54	53	0

sign : exponent : mantissa

A double-precision floating point number is represented by a mantissa of 54+1 bits, a binary exponent of 9 bits with a bias of 256 and a sign bit. The range is +/-8.6(10(-78)) to +/-5.8(10**76) and exactly 0, with an accuracy of approximately 16 digits. An operand with exponent = 0 is treated as exactly zero, with no respect to the sign nor the mantissa. Minus zero (all but bit 63 zero) will only be returned from an operation generating floating underflow.

The smallest ΔX to be added to 1.0 is 2.7755575610*-17.

Floating point numbers are always normalized, - i.e. the most significant bit in the mantissa is always one. It is therefore unnecessary to represent this bit explicitly. For single and double floating point numbers there is always one hidden bit in the mantissa, called the implicit bit. This is always assumed to be one, unless all bits in the exponent are zero. It is used in the arithmetic and removed from the result, thereby giving one more bit of precision. This is the reason why the length of the mantissa is expressed in terms of "+1".

The value of a floating point number is

S * 2**e * M if e > -256
0 if e = -256 (exponent bits all zero)

where S is the sign, with the value -1 if the sign bit is set and 1 if the sign bit is reset. e is the value of the 9-bit exponent (taken as an unsigned number) minus 256. Thus the range of e is -255 <= e <= 255. M is the mantissa interpreted as a binary fraction with the decimal point to the left of the implicit bit, giving a range of M of 0.5 <= M < 1.

7.2.7 Floating point rounding¶

After a floating point operation, the result is normalized and the full mantissa is checked for rounding. Rounding up is done by adding one to the least significant bit of the mantissa. Rounding down is done by ignoring bits beyond the least significant bit. The bits affecting the rounding are labelled as follows:

L - least significant bit of that part of the full mantissa which goes into a float or double float mantissa
G - the bit immediately to the right of L
St - the result of an OR operation of all bits to the right of G

  ----
 | L G : St |
  ----

Mantissa

if G=1 and (St=1 or L=1) then
add one to the least significant bit of mantissa
endif

Figure 20. Floating point rounding

The effective result is equivalent to rounding up when the last decimal digit is larger than 5, rounding down if it is less than 5. If the last decimal digit is equal to 5, the rounding up or down is determined by the L bit, causing round off errors to take both positive and negative values in order to partially self-compensate in long computations.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 87¶

7.2.8 Descriptor¶

A descriptor is used for addressing arrays and strings (byte arrays) through the DESC prefix. The descriptor consists of 8 bytes, the first four containing the length of the array, the last four containing the address of element number zero.

bytes 0 to 3	Number of elements (N)
bytes 4 to 7	Address of element 0 (A)

Figure 21. A descriptor

The hardware will compare the first half of the descriptor against the value of the index register used. Illegal indexing will be trapped as a Descriptor Range error (DR). Indexing is assumed to range from zero upwards; thus index values below zero, or larger or equal to the number of elements, are illegal.

7.3 Data formats in main memory¶

Data are stored in memory in various ways depending on their type. The basic unit in the ND-500 memory is a byte. In data types which consist of more than one byte, the bytes are numbered left to right. The bits in a single element of a data type are numbered right to left. The leftmost bit is the most significant bit.

Note that post-indexing always counts the elements from the left, even if the data type is bit.

byte 0	byte 1	byte 2	byte 3

Figure 22. Elements counted from the left

When addressing with byte, halfword, or word displacement part, the calculated address is the address of the leftmost (lowest numbered or most significant) byte. Addressing with short address codes is either B or R relative and has word as the displacement unit. The memory must then be looked on as if the basic unit is a word, and the data object must be located on a word boundary. The calculated address is the leftmost byte of the word. When addressing with short word displacement, the byte displacement is 4 * word displacement. (This is taken care of by the assembler and will be of little concern to the programmer.)

An array is addressed by its zeroth element, a multi-dimensional array by the element having all indexes zero. This may be a "virtual" element, in case the range of valid index values does not include.

Page 88¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

DATA TYPES¶

zero, or the array may actually start at a lower address if negative indexes are allowed.

Most multi-operand instructions require operands to be of the same type. The operands will be addressed as such, which may cause unexpected results. If, for example, a byte is addressed as a word, the intended byte and the following three bytes in memory will be used as if they were a word sized data item.

Type	Description
BIT	The rightmost bit of a byte, specified by the byte address.
BYTE	8 contiguous bits, starting at any byte boundary.
HALFWORD	16 contiguous bits (2 bytes), starting at any byte boundary and addressed by the leftmost byte.
WORD	32 contiguous bits (4 bytes), starting at any byte boundary and addressed by the leftmost byte.
FLOAT	32 contiguous bits (4 bytes), starting at any byte boundary and addressed by the leftmost byte.
DOUBLE FLOAT	64 contiguous bits (8 bytes), starting at any byte boundary and addressed by the leftmost byte.
DESCRIPTOR	64 contiguous bits (8 bytes), starting at any byte boundary and addressed by the leftmost byte.

DATA TYPES¶

7.4 Data in registers¶

Data may be loaded to the registers in the ND-500 CPU register block. Integer data types, i.e. BI, BY, H and W data, may be loaded to the four Integer registers (In, n=1,2,3,4). Floating point data types, i.e. F and D data, may be loaded to the four floating point Accumulators (An, n=1,2,3,4). The floating point accumulators may be extended with the Extension registers (En, n=1,2,3,4) for double-precision floating point data. Data is loaded to the registers as shown in the figure below.

The In accumulators are named BIn, BYn, Hn and Wn when used for BIt, BYte, Halfword, or Word operations. (n=1,2,3,4)

The An accumulators are named Fn when used as single-precision registers. The (An,En) double registers are named Dn when used as double-precision floating point registers.

A common name for BIn, BYn, Hn, Wn, Fn and Dn is Rn. Rn may be used when referencing a register where the type is determined by the context.

8 OPERAND SPECIFIERS AND ADDRESSING¶

8.1 Introduction¶

An instruction consists of an instruction code and zero or more operand specifiers. The general instruction format is shown in the figure below:

Instruction code	Operand specifier	Operand specifier	Operand specifier	...

1 or 2 bytes Zero or more operand specifiers, each 1 to 9 bytes

Figure 25. Instruction format

The instruction code specifies the operation to be performed and the operand data types. The operand specifier names the data to be worked on. This chapter describes the different formats of the operand specifier. The next chapter gives details of the instruction code.

In many ND-500 instructions one of the general registers or one of the floating-point registers is used as the argument or result. The two lower bits of the instruction code then specify the register number, which is a floating-point or double-precision floating-point register (Fn or Dn) when the data type is floating or double floating, and a general register (Rn) when the data type is integer.

OPERAND SPECIFIERS AND ADDRESSING¶

8.2 General and Direct Operands¶

An operand specifier designates the data for an instruction to work on. If an instruction requires several operands, a corresponding number of operand specifiers follow the instruction code.

Prefix(es)	Address code	Data part

Figure 26. Operand specifier format

The length of an operand specifier may be one to nine bytes.

Operand specifiers are divided into general operand specifiers and direct operand specifiers. The interpretation of a general operand is determined by an address code, data part and optional prefix(es). The interpretation of a direct operand depends on the instruction; the operand may only have a data part, no prefix or address code.

The instruction determines whether a general or a direct operand should be used. Instructions using direct operands are mentioned in 8.4; all others use general operands. Direct operands are used most places where the operand value has to be a constant of a specific type, and the operand value can be determined unambiguously as the contents of the following bytes.

The notational conventions used in this manual to indicate general and direct operands are explained in Appendix C. Operand names are chosen to give more information about the specific operand in use, e.g. <source>.

The following table describes the structure of operand specifiers in relation to general and direct operands. The blank part of the table indicates that there are no prefixes or addressing codes for direct operands and no prefixes for constant and register general operands. All general operands must have an address code.

OPERAND SPECIFIERS AND ADDRESSING

8.2.1 General operands¶

A general operand consists of the address code, the data part and possibly a prefix.

THE ADDRESS CODE¶

The address code is either 2 bits or 1 byte long. It indicates both the address mode, of which there are 10 types, and the length of the data part, of which there are 6. Combinations of address modes and data part lengths give 28 different address codes.

The data part length specifiers (in the ND-500 assembler notation), names and sizes are as follows (Note that :W and :F are different assembly notations for the same operand specifier format):

Specifier	Description	Size
:S	short	6 bits
:B	byte	1 byte
:H	halfword	2 bytes
:W	word	4 bytes
:F	floating	4 bytes
:D	double float	8 bytes

The table below shows the 10 address modes and the 6 data part length specifiers. Legal combinations are marked with ●. Post-index is abbreviated as P.I.

Figure 29. ND-500 address modes

Most address codes contain '11' in the leftmost two bits. The remaining six bits in the byte then specify the code.

However, in 3 special cases the leftmost two bits are '00', '01', or '10'. These are the short address codes (:S in the table) and the two bits alone indicate both length and mode. The remaining six bits are then taken as the data part, so that the complete operand specifier occupies only one byte.

THE DATA PART¶

The last part of the operand specifier, the data part, may be from six bits (for short data parts) to 8 bytes (for double word data parts). The data part contains an address, a displacement or a constant. The register address mode has no data part since the register number is contained in the address code.

Addresses always occupy four bytes. Short, byte and halfword displacements are always treated as unsigned values.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 98¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

OPERAND SPECIFIERS AND ADDRESSING¶

The displacement unit is always bytes, except for short displacements, where the unit is words. The range for short displacement is consequently 0..63 word from the record or base registers, and the addressed data object must be located an integral number of words from the register referred.

Normally the ND-500 assembler will select the optimal displacement size. It is possible, however, to force a particular (larger) size of displacement by following the operand specifier by either :S, :B, :H, :W, :F or :D. (The last two apply to constants only.) In examples shown, a data part length specifier is used only when forcing a non-default data part length.

PREFIXES¶

All address codes except constant and register may include prefixes as the first 1 or 2 bytes. These are used in two special cases where the operand specifier does not point to the operand itself. Such an operand specifier may point to an array descriptor or to an operand on an alternative domain. The prefixes are then followed by the operand specifiers.

The only two prefix combination allowed is when an operand points to an array descriptor referring to an alternative domain, written as ALT(DESC( )(Rn)). Only the last data access then goes to the alternative domain; the descriptor itself is accessed in the current domain.

8.2.2 Post-Index¶

Post-index is used in the local post-indexed, the local indirect post-indexed, absolute post-indexed and the descriptor addressing modes.

Post-indexed addressing means that the index register holds the address of the operand element relative to the start of the addressed structure. The index is signed, and is always a logical index giving the element number in the array regardless of the element size. Accessing the next element in the structure is done by incrementing the index register by one.

Hardware will multiply the logical index with a data type dependent factor, the post-index scaling factor. The result gives the physical index. The post-index scaling factor is the number of bytes used to represent the data type in question. The post-index scaling factor is 1/8 (B1), 1 (B), 2 (H), 4 (W), 4 (F), 8 (D) and 8 (descriptor). The physical index is added to the base address of the structure in order to get the address of the operand.

The first column lists the different groups of addressing modes in the assembler notation for displacements and the name of the displacement. The second column lists the algorithm used for determining the effective address (ea) of the operand or the operand itself. The third column lists the address code. (Abbreviations are explained in Appendix C.)

B.(displ):H	local, halfword displacement	0C2H
B.(displ):W	local, word displacement	0C3H

ea = (B)+d
ea = (B)+d*4 (B.(displ):S)

The local addressing mode is addressing relative to the base register B. This register is meant to hold the address of the beginning of the local variables of a routine, hence the name local addressing.

The effective address is calculated by adding the value of the displacement to the contents of the base register.

A short displacement part with a displacement unit of word is legal, in addition to byte, halfword and word displacement parts with the displacement stored in 1, 2, or 4 byte(s) after the address code, displacement unit byte. Displacement values are treated as unsigned.

IND(B.(displ):W)(Rn)	indirect, post-indexed, word displacement	0ECH+y	354B+y

ea = ((B)+d) + p*(Rn)

The address is calculated by adding the unsigned displacement of the address code to the contents of the base register. This sum is interpreted as an address. The contents of the word with this address are added to the contents of the specified register multiplied by the post-index scaling factor. This sum is the address of the operand. Subroutine array arguments are usually accessed with local indirect, post-indexed addressing.

op = data part of operand specifier

The data to be operated on is part of the operand specifier. It resides in the program memory and cannot be modified by any instruction. The value of the operand may have a length of six bits or one, two, four or eight bytes.

Constant operands are illegal for all write instructions, e.g. store, swap, or shift instructions. They are also illegal as destination operand(s) for multi-operand instructions, and in certain special instructions like TSET and RDUS. They are also illegal as subroutine arguments, as they have no address in data memory.

Note that word and floating-point constants have the same address code.

Table 12. Example of constants

The instruction code decides the interpretation of the operand addressed by the operand specifier. This may produce conflicts between the operand interpretation and the size of the data part of constant operands. These are solved by sign extension or data conversion if possible, done automatically by hardware. If no conversion is meaningful an illegal operand specifier trap condition occurs.

Rn (n=1..4)	Register	00D0+y	320B+y

One of the registers may be the operand of an instruction. If the data type of an instruction is an integer or it does not contain a data type specification, one of the integer registers is taken as the operand. If the data type of the instruction is float or double float, one of the float or double float registers is taken as the operand.

A register operand is not legal in the argument list of a CALL or CALLG instruction, as a destination in the BMOVE instruction or as an argument to certain special instructions (such as TSET and RDUS).

If the operand specifies descriptor access, the descriptor is taken from the current addressing domain. Only the last memory access which actually fetches the data goes to the alternative addressing domain.

Alternative addressing is illegal for register addressing and constant operand addressing.

The post-index scaling factor of the descriptor addressing itself is determined by the data type specified in the instruction code.

A descriptor comprises two words in memory accessed via a general operand. The first word contains the number of elements in a data array, the second contains the start address of the array. The operand element of the array is addressed post-indexed relative to the start address in the descriptor. Elements are indexed from zero; the legal index range is 0 to descriptor.length-1.

The hardware will report if the last element of the array is addressed by setting the K flag. If an element beyond the array is addressed the K flag is set and a descriptor range trap condition occurs.

The index register is incremented by a data access via descriptor. It is not incremented when accessing only the address of the operand (load address and call instructions).

8.16 Direct operands¶

Direct operands are those found in the bytes immediately following the instruction code or the preceding operand specifier. There is no prefix or address code part in the operand specifier. Direct operands are in the syntax definitions in this manual. They are written using the form <direct operand>.

The interpretation of a direct operand depends on the instruction and applies to specific instructions only. The data part of the operand specifier is taken either as a displacement or as an absolute address. Absolute addresses may be to the program or the data area.

8.16.1 Displacement addressing¶

The ND-500 instructions LOOP, LOOPI, LOOPD, GO and IF <rel> GO have displacement (program relative) addressing. Each instruction has two instruction codes, one for the byte displacement part and one for the halfword displacement part. GO is also available with the word displacement part. The displacement is signed, and is the distance from the first byte of the current instruction to the first byte of the addressed instruction.

(P) + d -> (P)

8.16.2 Absolute program addressing¶

The instruction CALL subroutine has absolute addressing. When using CALL the address follows the instruction code in the following four bytes.

When executing CALLG the address is accessed via a general operand, not a direct operand. Complete information is given in the description of the CALLG instruction.

8.16.3 Absolute data addressing¶

The INIT and ENTM instructions are followed by the absolute address of the bottom of the new stack. The ENTF and ENTFN instructions are followed by the address of the local data area.

THE ND-500 INSTRUCTION SET¶

9 THE ND-500 INSTRUCTION SET¶

The ND-500 instruction set has a variable length instruction format, the length determined by the type of instruction and the operands used. The shortest instructions are one byte long, the longest may be several thousand bytes long.

Each instruction consists of an instruction code and zero or more operand specifiers. The general instruction format is shown in the figure below:

Instruction code	Operand specifier	Operand specifier	Operand specifier	...
1 or 2 bytes	Zero or more operand specifiers, each 1 to 9 bytes

Figure 39. Instruction format

The following chapters describe each instruction code in detail. Operand specifiers are described in the previous chapter.

The term instruction code is used to indicate both the octal or hexadecimal value and the assembly notation. The octal or hexadecimal value of an instruction code is a numeric representation of the bit pattern inside the computer. The assembly notation is used by the assembler programmer to symbolically represent the binary code.

An instruction code specifies the operation to be performed and the data types of the operands. It may consist of one or two bytes. One byte instruction codes are used for the operations most frequently generated by compilers.

In many ND-500 instructions one of the general registers or one of the floating-point registers is used as an argument or result. The two lower bits of the instruction code then specify the register number, meaning a floating-point or double-precision floating-point register (Fn or Dn) when the data type is floating or double floating, and the general register (Rn) when the data type is integer.

All the upper 4 bits of a long (two byte) instruction code are set, which means that such codes are in the range 170000B to 177777B, 0F000H to 0FFFFH.

The instruction set is described using the syntax explained below. Optional syntax elements enclosed are in brackets, [ ]. Brackets followed by an "n" mean that more than one occurrence of an optional syntax element may be specified. The sign ::= means "is defined as".

instruction format ::= [[datatype specifier][ register number]]
                       instruction code name
                       [operand specifier][ operand specifier] n

t = data type specifier ::= BI, BY, H, W, F, D
t is a subset of the data type specifiers

n = register number ::= 1,2,3,4

instruction code name ::= text or character string

operand specifier ::= ⟨general operand⟩ ⟨⟨direct operand⟩⟩

⟨general operand⟩ - the operand is accessed via
a general addressing mode

⟨⟨direct operand⟩⟩ - the operand is found in the bytes immediately following the instruction code or the preceding operand specifier

Page 131¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE ND-500 INSTRUCTION SET¶

When describing the operand, the description string is divided in three or four parts, as follows:

operand ::= operand name/access code/datatype/pointer register

Operand name is a character string used as a descriptive term. For example, the load instruction format uses the term <source> as the operand name; the store instruction format uses <dest> as the destination operand name.

The access code may have the following abbreviations:

Code	Description
r	read access
w	write access
rw	read and write access
rwl	read, write and locked swap access
aa	address access
s	special, explained explicitly in the instruction descriptions

Locked swap access applies to the TSET instruction only.

Address access (aa) together with descriptor addressing will not cause the index register to be incremented. If the access code is read (r) or write (w), the index register will be incremented.

The pointer register applies to string instruction descriptions only.

ACTUAL OPERAND VALUE¶

The actual operand value used may be the value found in the instruction or the value found at the address specified by the instruction, determined by the addressing mode. In the descriptions of the operation performed in the following chapters, dereferencing of source operands is implicit if the operand is an address. For example,

tn ADD3 <a/r/t>, <b/r/t>, <c/w/t>

Operation: <a> + -> <c>

In the instruction

W3 ADD3 SOU, 5, DES

SOU is an address (a label); the value found at this address is the <a> operand value. The  operand is the value 5 rather than the value found at address 5; the operand specifier is CONSTANT type. DES is the address of the <c> operand.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 132¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE ND-500 INSTRUCTION SET¶

If the actual source operand value is the address, rather than the value found at that address, the description of the operation indicates this by the notation addr(). Take, for example, the LADDR instruction:

tn LADDR

Operation: addr() -> Rn

DATA STATUS BITS¶

Data status bits not mentioned in the instruction description are always cleared after the instruction has been executed. If the status bit is conditionally set a TRUE condition causes the bit to be set (1), a FALSE condition causes it to be reset (0).

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

THE ND-500 INSTRUCTION SET¶

Before going on to the instruction set, an example will be explained:

Example:¶

Load bit register number 2 with the bit number found in R3 from the bit array BITA. BITA is displaced 078H, or 170B, bytes from the base address of the local data area. The size of the displacement part is forced to half word.

Assembly code notation: BI2 := B.BITA(R3) : H

Description:¶

The instruction code for loading bit register 2 is 0FC05H, or 176005B, written as 374B,005B when treated as two octal bytes.

B.BITA(R3) is the local post-indexed addressing mode, address code 0DAH, or 332B.

The :H length specifier tells the assembler to store the displacement in halfword format. Normally the assembler should be allowed to select the storage format, in order to achieve optimal program encoding. In this example the assembler would have stored the displacement in byte format if :H had been omitted.

The address of the byte containing the bit in question is calculated as follows (See figure on the next page):

ea = (B) + d + p * (Rn)

	Calculation	Result
Octal	10000B + 170B + INT(403B/10B)	10230B
Hex	01000H + 078H + INT(0103H/08H)	01098H

Post indexing always counts the data elements from the left, consequently the bit number within the addressed byte is

bn = 7-REM(403B/10B) = 7-REM(0103H/08H) = 7-3 = 4

13.3 Conditional Jump¶

Formats:

IF <rel> GO <<displacement>>

IF <rel> GO <bit No./r/BY>, <<displacement>>

Operation:

if <rel> then (P)+<<(displacement)>> -> P endif

Description:

A conditional jump will cause transfer of control if and only if a specified condition is true.

The condition is specified in terms of the status bits set by instructions operating on data values. If the condition indicated by the instruction is true, the sign-extended byte or halfword <> is added to the program counter.

Conditional jump on specified bits in the status register is possible by the second format of the instruction. In this case, the <rel> operand may be ST or -ST, and the <bit No.> operand specifies which bit in the status register to test. <bit No.> has the range 0 to 29 inclusive. Other values for <bit No.> will cause an illegal operand value trap condition; no jump is performed if <rel> is ST, the jump is performed if <rel> is -ST.

Magnitude tests are only meaningful after compare and subtract instructions, as carry is reset in load instructions. IF )>= GO and IF << GO may be used as explicit tests on carry.

Trap conditions: Addressing traps, Branch trap (BT), Illegal operand value (IOV)

Data status bits: Unaffected

In the following table all conditional jump instructions are listed with operation code, assembly notation, data status test for jumping and name. They all have conditional jump as the first part of the name; alt. is an abbreviation for alternate.

CALLG call subroutine general 0B5H 265B

Operation:

Calculate the effective addresses of the arguments and prepare for the entry point at <subr. addr.>.
Jump to the subroutine entry point found at that address.

Description:

Call the subroutine specified by <subr. addr.>. This is a general operand and it must refer to an entry point instruction. Otherwise an instruction-sequence error-trap condition occurs.

The <no of arg> operand must be a constant byte integer less than 256. Other data types which are not constants will cause an illegal operand specifier trap condition.

The effective addresses of the arguments in the instruction are calculated and stored for use by the entry point instruction. The arguments are always interpreted as word integers. The data-type-dependent addressing modes (post-indexed or descriptor address code format) should be used with care, as the result will be wrong for data types other than word. <argn> operands of type register or constant will cause an illegal operand specifier trap condition, as neither registers nor constants have an address in data memory. The arguments may not be prefixed by the operand specifier prefix ALT.

The <> operand must be a constant byte integer, i.e. less than 256. Other data types which are not constants will cause an illegal operand specifier trap condition.

The effective addresses of the arguments in the instruction are calculated and stored for use by the entry point instruction. The arguments are always interpreted as word integer. The data-type-dependent addressing modes (post-indexed or descriptor address code format) should be used with care, as the result will be incorrect for data types other than word. <> operands of type register or constant will cause an illegal operand specifier trap condition, as neither registers nor constants have an address in data memory.

The entry point instruction specifies the kind of local data area initialization performed on execution of a subroutine call instruction. This initialization includes transfer of the argument addresses to the new local data area at subroutine entry points, and saving of the current register block in the new local data area at the trap handler entry point.

Execution of an entry point instruction (except ENTT) not resulting from a subroutine call will cause an instruction sequence error trap condition. ENTT may only be executed as a result of a trap, and may not be used as an entry point by a CALL or CALLG.

The parameters to the subroutine entry point instructions may not be prefixed by the operand specifier prefix ALT.

Description:¶

ENTT is the trap handler entry point. A trap handler is called when a trap condition arises and the trap enable bit is set for the trap in question. When a trap handler routine is called, the start address is taken from a trap handler entry point vector. The THA register holds the address of this vector. The area following the trap handler vector is used as a local data area for the trap handler routine called. It has a special layout illustrated in the chapter 6 on traps.

The register block is stacked as shown in table 5 on page 12.

The instruction may start at any byte in the first word. 'Trapping P', saved as arg1, is the address of the first byte of the instruction causing the trap.

A local data area of size 2**<log size> words is allocated from the heap and the subroutine is entered. There will be a stack overflow trap if there are no elements of the specified size (or larger) available from the heap. (See section 3.3 on buddy allocation for detailed description.)

In certain combinations of ENTB and ENTS there is a danger of allocating overlapping data areas.

Trap conditions:¶

Addressing traps, Stack overflow (STO), Instruction sequence error (ISE)

Initializations performed:¶

address of heap element -> B

oldB -> B.PREVB

oldB.SP -> B.SP

return address -> B.RETA -> L

log size -> B.LOG

number of arguments -> B.N

addresses of arguments -> B.ARG

Description¶

RET, RETK

Return from subroutine with local data area. The new base register and return address are taken from the current local data area. RETK will set the flag bit of the status register; RET will clear it.

IF K RET

If the flag bit K is set when the IF K RET instruction is executed, a subroutine return is performed with the flag bit remaining set. Otherwise, control goes to the next instruction.

CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS¶

RETD¶

Load the new program counter from the link register.

RETT¶

Return from the trap handler. When RETT is executed, the register block is loaded from the first part of trap-handler data area. The non-ignorable and fatal status bits are loaded from the domain information table. The OTE register is loaded from the domain information table. PREVB and RETA are not used or tested. CED of the trapped domain is compared to actual CED. If they are unequal, CED is changed back to trapped domain.

RETB, RETBK¶

Return from subroutine using a heap element as local data area. The local data area is released to the heap described by the variables pointed at by the TOS register. (See section 3.3 on page 20 about heap management for further explanation.)

Trap conditions: Addressing traps, Stack underflow (STU), Branch trap (BT)

Data status bits: Unaffected

The programmer must ensure that the appropriate return instruction is executed. Subroutines entered through an ENTS, ENTSN, ENTF or ENTFN instruction should be left through a RET, RETK or IF K RET instruction. ENTD routines should be left through RETD, ENTT routines through RETT, ENTB routines through RETB or RETBK.

If B.PREVB or B.RETA is zero, the RET, RETK and IF K RET instructions will compare CAD from DIT of calling domain to CED. If they are equal, a stack underflow trap condition occurs. If CAD from DIT of calling domain is not equal to CED, the current domain is changed back to CAD from DIT of calling domain, and the B, P, and CAD registers are loaded from the new domain information table. The TOS, HL, LL and THA values are loaded from the new domain information table.

RETT will compare the domain number of the trapped domain (saved in the domain information table) with the number of the current executing domain. If they are equal, RETT returns within the same domain. Otherwise RETT changes the domain to the domain number saved on the stack.

STRING INSTRUCTIONS¶

14 STRING INSTRUCTIONS¶

14.1 Introduction¶

The string handling instructions make special use of the I1 and I2 registers as pointers in the source and destination string respectively. I2 is also used for those instructions which have two source operands, as a pointer in the second source string.

The register contains the character number within the string, starting at zero. It is not initialized before the instruction is executed and may be set by the user to point at any character. Characters outside the range indexed by the string instruction are unaffected.

The operand in the instruction is the address of a string descriptor giving the length of the string and its start address. A DESC prefix is not allowed in the operand specifier; the descriptor addressing format is implicit in string instructions. If the ALT prefix is used, the descriptor is found in the current domain. Only the byte string is found in the alternative domain. Operands that are not strings are addressed directly and maybe prefixed by DESC.

Addressing traps may be caused by the addressing of the descriptor or by the address field in the descriptor.

CHARACTER TRANSLATION¶

Some instructions refer to a translation table. The table is 256 contiguous bytes and a translation is a reference in this table which uses the byte to be translated as an index. In the instruction descriptions Tr(S(I1)) means that the specified element is translated via a translation table. The translation table is addressed directly, not via an implicit descriptor. If the translation table is addressed via an explicit descriptor operand, the index register is not incremented.

DATA STATUS BITS¶

The data status bits Z and S and the K flag may be affected by the string operations. The data status bits not mentioned in the string instruction description are all zero after the execution of the instruction. Carry and overflow are always cleared.

The K flag always reflects the termination condition; the previous setting of the flag is lost. If a numeric argument (for example in the SFILLN instruction) is addressed via a descriptor, the descriptor addressing will not affect the K bit.

TERMINATION CONDITIONS¶

Execution of an instruction may terminate for various reasons and the termination condition sets the K, Z and/or S status bits.

If the destination pointer register (I2) is incremented beyond the last element of the destination string, the termination condition is set.

Page 244¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

STRING INSTRUCTIONS¶

called Destination full, implying that 1 -> K. Execution termination for reasons other than destination full implies that 0 -> K.

If the source pointer register (usually I1) is incremented beyond the last element of the source string, the termination condition is called Source empty.

Each instruction gives different statuses to the Z and S bits.

After execution, I1 and I2 remain unmodified, and point to either the next element or to the element satisfying the specified condition, depending on the termination conditions. The next element is the first one not referred to by the instruction. It is the first character beyond the end of the string if the end of the string has been reached.

Source empty or Destination full implies that I1 and I2 point to the next element. Until conditions that terminate as a result of the condition being satisfied and instructions with while will leave the I1 and I2 registers pointing to the element causing the termination.

When more than one termination condition is reached at the same time, the instruction terminates with the first one mentioned in the termination condition list of the instruction.

ADDRESSING OUTSIDE STRINGS¶

If the pointer register points outside the string when the instruction starts execution, a descriptor range trap condition arises. This may occur for source strings as well as for destination strings. Addressing a string of length zero will always be outside the string.

If any string operand is addressed outside its legal range, no string elements will be examined, moved, or compared. The I1 and I2 registers are then unmodified, and a descriptor-range trap condition occurs. If a <source> operand or both <source> and <dest> are addressed outside the strings, the instruction will terminate with K=0. Addressing outside the <dest> string, but within the <source> string, will cause termination with K=1.

OVERLAPPING STRINGS¶

Strings occupying the same locations in memory are said to be overlapping. If the source and destination operands overlap, the result will be as intended only if an element in the source string of the old contents is moved out before it is overwritten with a new value. In cases where the length of the string operands can be determined prior to start of execution, the microcode will take care of overlap; if necessary, by operating on the string elements in the reverse order.

For instructions containing a 'while' or 'until' condition, the length cannot be determined before execution has been started, and it is not possible to predict the degree of overlapping. The programmer must ensure that strings do not overlap, otherwise the results are unpredictable.

Description:

Translated bytes from the <source-1> string are compared with the corresponding translated bytes in the <source-2> string. The comparison continues until unequal bytes are found or the ends of both strings have been reached. If the lengths of the <source-1> and <source-2> strings are unequal, the shorter string is linked with a string of pad bytes. The length of the pad string is equal to the difference in length of the <source-1> and the <source-2> string. The pad byte is also translated.

An operand addressed outside the string is treated as consisting of pad bytes only. Two operands both addressed outside the strings are compared as an "exact match". The pointer registers are unmodified. In either case, a descriptor range trap condition arises. When unequal bytes are found, the status bits Z and S and the K flag indicate the termination condition. The byte elements are unsigned values.

Operation:¶

<source> type converted from t1 to t2 -> <dest>

Description:¶

The <source> operand of type t1 is converted to data type t2 and the result is stored in the <dest> operand. The result is not rounded.

For integer types, conversion of shorter to a longer data type is by sign extension. Conversion of longer to shorter data types is by truncation of the most significant bits and may cause integer overflow. Conversion from float to integer may also cause integer overflow.

Conversion from bit implies that the result is zero if the bit is cleared and one if the bit is set. Conversion to bit implies that the bit is set if the source is different from zero, otherwise it is cleared.

Trap conditions:¶

Addressing traps, Integer overflow (0)

Data status bits:¶

enddo

Description:

Follow a link <no. of levels> steps and load the specified register with the base address of the next data element. This instruction is used by language processors for making references to variables declared in an outer procedure. <offset> will usually be the B relative address of the static link (the base address of the local variables of an enclosing procedure), <address> the current B register value, and <no. of levels> the difference between the current static level and the level where the variable was declared.

If the next link in the chain is zero, the operation is terminated, Wn will contain the last element in the link (pointing to a zero location) and the K flag is set. This will also cause an illegal operand value trap condition.

A negative <no. of levels> will cause an illegal operand value trap condition. <no. of levels> equal to zero will have the same effect as a LADDR instruction.

Trap Conditions:
Addressing traps, Illegal operand value (IOV)

Data Status Bits:

16.1 Disable process switch¶

Format: SOLO

Assembly notation Name Hex code Octal code

SOLO disable process switch 0FE00H 177000B

Operation: disables process switch for maximum 256 micro-cycles

Description:

Ensure that instructions up to the next TUTTI instruction are executed as an indivisible sequence of operations. SOLO is used for synchronizing purposes and implementation of protection mechanisms.

If the disable process switch is disabled for more than 256 micro-cycles, a disable process switch timeout occurs. Most simple instructions execute in one microcycle per operand specifier.

No enabled trap conditions may occur when the process switch is disabled, as any trap handling will take more than 256 micro-cycles and cause timeout. Non-ignorable and fatal traps cause a disable process switch error trap.

In privilege mode there is no limitation to the duration of a SOLO operation. Unprivileged users are not allowed to run in SOLO for more than 256 cycles. In the 500/2 implementation, these are microcycles. In the ND-5000 implementation they are macroinstruction cycles.

Disable process switch timeout occurs if unprivileged users attempt to repeat SOLO’s.

Trap conditions: Disable process switch timeout (DT), Disable process switch error (DE)

Data status bits: Unaffected

Example:

BY TSET test and set 0FD40H 176500B

Operation:

lock

read operand and set status bits

set operand to all ones

unlock

Description:

The TSET instruction performs the two necessary memory accesses uninterruptible by other processors or by channels connected to the memory system. It may therefore be used to implement processor synchronization. The TSET instruction always reads the contents of main memory, even if the addressed data are present in cache memory. The cache is updated for later references by ordinary load instructions.

The TSET instruction is valid in the MPM-IV and later memory systems. In installations using MPM-III, it will work algorithmically as specified here but the memory operations are independent and other memory accesses may interfere.

Register and constant operands are illegal, and will cause an illegal operand specifier trap condition.

Trap conditions: Addressing traps, Illegal operand specifier (IOS)

Data status bits:

operand was zero before store -> Z

operand was negative before store -> S

Example:

Set byte variable RESERVE to all ones

Description:

Special registers can be loaded with this group of instructions.

Some of the bits in the status register (listed in the Status bits survey section) are not modifiable. When loading the Own Trap Enable register, the operand is compared with a modify mask (TEMM) found in the domain description table. If a bit in this mask is set, the corresponding bit in the trap enable register is modifiable. An attempt to modify a non-modifiable bit in the Own Trap Enable register will cause an illegal operand value trap condition.

Trap conditions: Addressing traps, Illegal operand value (IOV)

Data status bits:

\ = 0 -> Z
\.signbit -> S

The instruction ST1:= will load the data status bits from the operand. Setting status bits that are modified after each instruction is legal but meaningless, as they will be cleared before the next instruction. These include bits in the range 17 to 25, 27 and 28.

Description:

Privileged instruction.

A bit or 16 bit group is read from the Written In Page table into the specified register. The operand specifies the physical memory page number (BIn RWIP) or physical page number/16 (Hn RWIP).

A bit set in this table indicates that the page has been written into and must be written back to disk before being replaced with another one. The bit is automatically set by hardware and is used by the swapper routines.

In hardware there are separate WIP tables for program and data. RWIP will return a logical OR of the two tables, making them appear as one. Consequently, an ND-500 system cannot have physically separate memory for program and data at the same physical addresses.

This instruction is installation dependent; using it requires knowledge of the physical memory configuration. Only the lower 25 bits of the bit number are significant. Reading bits representing non-existing memory will give a zero result.

Operation:
{source} -> Rn

Description:

The operand is loaded from main memory, disregarding cache contents. This is primarily useful after a DMA transfer to memory has been performed to prevent use of obsolete data in the cache. Register and constant operands are illegal and will cause an illegal operand specifier trap condition.

If the shared segment bit in the capability table is set, the cache will under no circumstances be used for accesses to that segment. Thus in multiprocess applications it is usually unnecessary to use the RDUS instruction to ensure data consistency; the ordinary load (: =) will have the same effect.

The addressed data are also loaded into the cache for later references. If no cache is present, RDUS is equivalent to :=.

Trap conditions: Addressing traps, Illegal operand specifier (IOS)

LCNTXT <mask/r/W>,<address/r/W>,<process number/r/W>

Operation:

Load and store registers and context information indicated by 'mask' into addresses given by register number and offset address.

Description:

Register block layout used in store and load register block is the same as used in store and load context, as shown in chapter 2. Register number**4 gives displacement relative to the start of the save area (Program counter is register number=0).

Address is pointer to the save and load area to be used.

Registers residing in the domain information table are modified whenever they are changed. These registers are loaded from the domain information table before execution is started. It is not necessary to save these registers in the save area when saving the context block or the register block. Thus, the domain information table registers may be excluded from the mask.

The LCNTXT and LREGBL instructions will load registers residing in the domain information table before execution is started. If registers residing in the domain information table are included in the 'mask', these registers are loaded into the domain information table from save area. Changing domain information table, by changing PS and/or CED, will cause domain information table registers of a new domain to be loaded. The privileged instruction bit (PIA) of the status word will also be modified according to the new domain information table.

The SCNTXT and SREGBL instructions will read registers residing in the domain information table and store them in the save area if included in the mask.

When loading registers residing in the domain information table or affecting the domain information selection according to 'mask', registers are loaded from context or register block addresses while the corresponding register is updated in the domain information table. Hence this gives an opportunity to start a process with a completely new register set. Note that this will only be possible when executed as a privileged instruction.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS¶

When LREGBL is executed in non-privileged mode, it is not possible to modify the ST2, PS, CED, CAD, CTE, MTE and TEMM registers.

The CTE, MTE and TEMM registers cannot be changed by assembly instructions and since these registers do not have any corresponding hardware register, LREGBL should not attempt to modify these registers.

The LCNTXT and SCNTXT are privileged instructions, since these are using physical address when accessing the context block for load and store.

The meaning of 'mask' in REGBL and CNTXT load and store instructions are shown in the table below.

A '1' in bit position of the 'mask' will cause register to be loaded.

17 BINARY CODED DECIMAL INSTRUCTIONS (Option)¶

17.1 Introduction¶

These instructions are available only if the BCD hardware option is selected and the proper microprogram loaded.

BCD (PACKED) FORMAT¶

A BCD number is represented by coding each individual decimal digit using four bits, called a nibble. This significantly eases the translation to or from a printable form, ASCII characters in particular.

The digits 0 to 9 are coded by their binary equivalents:

Digit Internal (binary) representation

0 0000

1 0001

2 0010

3 0011

4 0100

5 0101

6 0110

7 0111

8 1000

9 1001

The codes 1010 to 1111 are invalid as digits, but are used to represent the sign. Also the code 0000 represents the sign +. The sign is placed in the rightmost nibble, following the least significant digit.

Sign Code

+ 0000

1010

1100

1110

- 1011

1101

unsigned 1111

Arithmetic operations will return results using 1100 for plus, 1101 for minus, but all sign codes are allowed in operands. Unsigned is treated as plus.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 338¶

ASCII CODED DECIMAL NUMBERS¶

A decimal number may also be represented using the ASCII characters. Each digit occupies one byte (8 bits). The upper four bits of the byte, called the zone, have the value 0011 unless they are used to represent the sign. The lower four bits are encoded as for BCD numbers.

Before arithmetic operations are performed on the number, it must be packed into a BCD format (PPACK instruction).

A number consists of a sequence of ASCII digits which may be preceded or followed by a sign. The sign may occupy a separate byte containing the ASCII value of + (40B or 020H, or 53B or 02BH) or - (55B or 02DH). It may also be stored in the same byte as the rightmost or leftmost digit (embedded sign representation). When the sign is embedded, the byte containing the sign has the value as follows:

Positive Number Byte Value

0 => 173B

1..9 (with or without parity) => 101B..111B

07BH

041H..049H

Negative Number Byte Value

0 => 175B

1..9 => 112B..122B

07DH

04AH..052H

The embedded sign format is also termed "overpunch" format.

When embedded, the sign byte is also allowed to be the ASCII digits alone. The sign is then positive. The ordinary digit values are also valid as embedded sign with + sign.

The five possible sign representations are

embedded trailing, the rightmost byte contains the sign and the least significant digit

separate trailing, the sign is represented by its ASCII code in a separate byte to the right of the least significant digit

embedded leading, the leftmost byte contains the sign and the most significant digit

separate leading, the sign is represented by its ASCII code in a separate byte to the left of the most significant digit

unsigned

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

BINARY CODED DECIMAL INSTRUCTIONS (Option)¶

DESCRIPTOR FORMAT FOR ASCII AND BCD¶

A decimal number is addressed indirectly via a two word descriptor giving the sign representation, scaling factor, number of digits of the operand and the address of its first byte. Descriptor addressing is implicit in the BCD instructions.

The descriptor consists of two words (64 bits) with the following layout:

Bit no: 31 24 23 16 15 0

SGN SC FW

Address

SGN: Sign representation of ASCII coded decimal:

bit 26 25 24 Sign representation

0 0 0 embedded trailing

0 0 1 separate trailing

0 1 0 embedded leading

0 1 1 separate leading

1 0 0 unsigned

For BCD format, the unsigned bit in the BCD descriptor is only valid for destination operands. Sign codes different from unsigned in the source operands are legal and effective even if the unsigned bit in the descriptor is set. The destination field will always be generated with the binary value 1111 in the sign nibble when the destination descriptor unsigned bit is set.

For ASCII operands, the unsigned bit in the descriptor is effective for all operands. If a sign code is detected in a source operand and the source descriptor unsigned bit is set, it is an illegal operand value trap condition. Destination operands are always generated in unsigned format when the unsigned bit in the descriptor is set.

SC: Scaling factor, specifying the position of the decimal point. Legal range is from -32 through +31. Negative values are represented as a two's complement byte. SC=0 indicates that the decimal point is immediately to the right of the least significant digit; SC>0 indicates that the decimal point is to the left of the least significant digit (the SC rightmost digits are the fractional part); SC<0 indicates that the decimal point is to the right of the least significant digit (the number has SC non-represented zeros to the right).

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 340¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

BINARY CODED DECIMAL INSTRUCTIONS (Option)¶

FW: Field width, range 0 through 31; the number of nibbles (BCD packed) or bytes (ASCII) used to represent the number, including the sign. An unsigned ASCII number with embedded sign may be up to 31 digits, a BCD packed or ASCII number with separate sign may be up to 30 digits.

EMPTY OPERANDS¶

A field width of zero will cause a descriptor-range trap condition. The address is not checked; no addressing traps will occur from the address part of the descriptor.

DECIMAL OPERAND ADDRESSING¶

Decimal operands are never loaded into registers; both descriptors and numeric fields are always found in memory. The address field in the descriptor gives the address of the leftmost byte of the numeric field. For BCD (packed) operands the numeric field is right justified in (FW+1)/2 bytes; if the field width FW is odd the leftmost nibble in the leftmost byte is not significant. The operands of an instruction may have different scaling factors and field widths. The decimal points of the operand values are automatically aligned before the operation is executed. The result value is scaled according to the scale factor in the destination descriptor.

Descriptor addressing is implicit; a DESC prefix is not allowed in the operand specifier.

OPERAND OVERLAP¶

An operand may be used both as source and as destination, and is described by one descriptor or by two different descriptors with equal address fields.

ROUNDING¶

If the instruction specifies rounding, the result value may be rounded before storing in the destination operand. If the result has one or more digits to the right of the least significant digit in the destination, the leftmost digit not stored is inspected. If this digit is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 the least significant digit actually stored is incremented by 1. Otherwise, the digits that are not stored are ignored.

If rounding is not specified in the instruction, digits to the right of the least significant digit represented will not affect the result.

Norsk Data ND-05.009.4 EN

Page 341¶

ND-500 Reference Manual¶

BINARY CODED DECIMAL INSTRUCTIONS (Option)¶

STATUS BITS¶

Decimal instructions will affect BCD overflow, the invalid operation value, K flag, zero and sign bits. BCD overflow and the invalid operation may be taken care of by a trap handler.

BCD overflow occurs if the destination field is too narrow to hold the result value after rounding.

An invalid operation occurs if a code representing anything other than a digit is encountered in a digit position, or anything other than a sign code is encountered in the sign position. The numeric string is checked for illegal codes in all instructions.

The packed to binary conversion instruction may also cause integer overflow.

Data status bits (Zero, Sign) are set or reset after rounding (if specified), and after the result value has been scaled according to the destination descriptor.

The K flag is set up on BCD overflow or invalid operation, otherwise the flag is cleared.

NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE ZERO¶

A result value of zero from an instruction will usually have a positive sign code, or unsigned if so specified in the descriptor. Source operands of value zero may have positive or negative sign; negative zero is equivalent to positive zero and will compare as equal in the PCOMP instruction.

If significant digits are lost due to a BCD overflow, the result value will have the sign of what the correct result would have had. This may give a result value of negative zero. The Z and S bits in the status register are set the same as for a positive zero value (Z=1, S=0).

BCD OVERFLOW¶

On BCD overflow, the result is replaced by the correctly signed least significant digits.

Restriction on Scaling Difference in Packed Add

For add, subtract, and compare the following must hold:

-32 ≤ ((operand1.field width+1)/22-(operand1.scaling factor)-((operand2.field width+1)/22-(operand2.scaling))) ≤ 32

otherwise it is an invalid trap condition.

The \ string is extended with leading ASCII zeros if necessary, and the parity bit for all digits will be zero.

Trap conditions:
Addressing traps, BCD overflow (BO), Invalid operation (IVO)

Data status bits:

value after rounding = 0 -> Z

value.signbit -> S

BCD overflow -> BO

BO or IVO -> K

Example:

Unpack VAR1 into IFIELD and round the value according to the IFIELD descriptor

PUPACKR VAR1, IFIELD
