| risc-v assembly language examples: RISC-V Assembly Language Programming Yury Magda, 2024-08-08 This book is designed to be your comprehensive guide to learning RISC-V assembly programming by example. Whether you are a novice programmer stepping into the world of assembly language for the first time or an experienced developer looking to expand your skills into the RISC-V architecture, this book provides a thorough, hands-on approach to mastering this versatile instruction set. RISC-V (Reduced Instruction Set Computer - V) is an open-source instruction set architecture (ISA) that has been gaining significant traction in both academic and industrial circles. Its simplicity, modularity, and extensibility make it an ideal platform for education, research, and a wide range of applications. Unlike proprietary ISAs, RISC-V is free and open, allowing anyone to study, modify, and implement it, fostering innovation and collaboration across the global computing community. In all examples from this book, we use RV32 which is a 32-bit subset of the RISC-V architecture, designed for applications that require 32-bit addressing and operations. Why Assembly Language? Assembly language provides a clear view of what is happening at the hardware level, giving you ultimate control over your program's execution. By learning assembly, you gain insight into how high-level languages are translated into machine code, enabling you to write more efficient and optimized code. Additionally, understanding assembly language is essential for tasks such as debugging, performance tuning, and developing system-level software. Programming is best learned by doing, and this book is designed with that philosophy in mind. Each chapter contains numerous code examples with detailed explanations accompany each example to ensure you understand the underlying concepts and techniques. This book assumes a basic understanding of computer programming and familiarity with fundamental concepts such as variables, loops, and functions. Prior experience with a high-level programming language like C or Python will be beneficial but is not strictly necessary. |

| risc-v assembly language examples: Guide to Computer Processor Architecture Bernard Goossens, 2023-01-25 The book presents a succession of RISC-V processor implementations in increasing difficulty (non pipelined, pipelined, deeply pipelined, multithreaded, multicore). Each implementation is shown as an HLS (High Level Synthesis) code in C++ which can really be synthesized and tested on an FPGA based development board (such a board can be freely obtained from the Xilinx University Program targeting the university professors). The book can be useful for three reasons. First, it is a novel way to introduce computer architecture. The codes given can serve as labs for a processor architecture course. Second, the book content is based on the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture, which is an open-source machine language promised to become the machine language to be taught, replacing DLX and MIPS. Third, all the designs are implemented through the High Level Synthesis, a tool which is able to translate a C program into an IP (Intellectual Property). Hence, the book can serve to engineers willing to implement processors on FPGA and to researchers willing to develop RISC-V based hardware simulators. |

| risc-v assembly language examples: Xchg Rax, Rax Xorpd, 2014-12-09 ; 0x40 assembly riddles xchg rax, rax is a collection of assembly gems and riddles I found over many years of reversing and writing assembly code. The book contains 0x40 short assembly snippets, each built to teach you one concept about assembly, math or life in general. Be warned - This book is not for beginners. It doesn't contain anything besides assembly code, and therefore some x86_64 assembly knowledge is required. How to use this book? Get an assembler (Yasm or Nasm is recommended), and obtain the x86_64 instruction set. Then for every snippet, try to understand what it does. Try to run it with different inputs if you don't understand it in the beginning. Look up for instructions you don't fully know in the Instruction sets PDF. Start from the beginning. The order has meaning. As a final note, the full contents of the book could be viewed for free on my website (Just google xchg rax, rax). |

| risc-v assembly language examples: Introduction to Computer Organization Robert G. Plantz, 2022-01-25 This hands-on tutorial is a broad examination of how a modern computer works. Classroom tested for over a decade, it gives readers a firm understanding of how computers do what they do, covering essentials like data storage, logic gates and transistors, data types, the CPU, assembly, and machine code. Introduction to Computer Organization gives programmers a practical understanding of what happens in a computer when you execute your code. Working from the ground up, the book starts with fundamental concepts like memory organization, digital circuit design, and computer arithmetic. It then uses C/C++ to explore how familiar high-level coding concepts—like control flow, input/output, and functions—are implemented in assembly language. The goal isn’t to make you an assembly language programmer, but to help you understand what happens behind the scenes when you run your programs. Classroom-tested for over a decade, this book will also demystify topics like: How data is encoded in memory How the operating system manages hardware resources with exceptions and interrupts How Boolean algebra is used to implement the circuits that process digital information How a CPU is structured, and how it uses buses to execute a program stored in main memory How recursion is implemented in assembly, and how it can be used to solve repetitive problems How program code gets transformed into machine code the computer understands You may never have to write x86-64 assembly language or design hardware yourself, but knowing how the hardware and software works will make you a better, more confident programmer. |

| risc-v assembly language examples: The Art of Assembly Language, 2nd Edition Randall Hyde, 2010-03-01 Assembly is a low-level programming language that's one step above a computer's native machine language. Although assembly language is commonly used for writing device drivers, emulators, and video games, many programmers find its somewhat unfriendly syntax intimidating to learn and use. Since 1996, Randall Hyde's The Art of Assembly Language has provided a comprehensive, plain-English, and patient introduction to 32-bit x86 assembly for non-assembly programmers. Hyde's primary teaching tool, High Level Assembler (or HLA), incorporates many of the features found in high-level languages (like C, C++, and Java) to help you quickly grasp basic assembly concepts. HLA lets you write true low-level code while enjoying the benefits of high-level language programming. As you read The Art of Assembly Language, you'll learn the low-level theory fundamental to computer science and turn that understanding into real, functional code. You'll learn how to: –Edit, compile, and run HLA programs –Declare and use constants, scalar variables, pointers, arrays, structures, unions, and namespaces –Translate arithmetic expressions (integer and floating point) –Convert high-level control structures This much anticipated second edition of The Art of Assembly Language has been updated to reflect recent changes to HLA and to support Linux, Mac OS X, and FreeBSD. Whether you're new to programming or you have experience with high-level languages, The Art of Assembly Language, 2nd Edition is your essential guide to learning this complex, low-level language. |
