I got this as strong need. Any insight on how hard the work is needed ? (Besides the actual status of poor reliability I've found regarding B channel commands...)
Yeo that's seems enough and straightforward but we still need the fpga improvement. Who's able ?
Just to add my lacky thought : we're talking about thumb but thumb we don't actually use since we use thumb-interwork to make it work along with arm. How much...
BTW We could try to enforce thumb as much as possible and rely on the NetBSD way of finding thumb-incompatibilities : > In a large codebase like NetBSD it becomes...
@slurdge can you provide a case where thumb is actually faster than arm? In every benchmark I've tried, thumb2 can produce 85% (worst case) to 125%(famous faster than arm cases)...
@slurdge i'm quite sure these processors came with THUMB2, as you've made reference to post-2003 architectures. But here we are on arm7tdmi and thumb is absolutely not Thumb2 unfortunately, and...
Confirmed : ``` arm-none-eabi-readelf -a obj/fullimage.stage1.elf|grep Thumb Tag_THUMB_ISA_use: Thumb-1 ``` So let's have in mind we are talking about Thumb-1 here, so not anything close to what @slurdge was talking...
Brace yourself, i'm ready to flash a bootrom in arm without thumb interwork (and as Thumb-enabled arm cpus indeed boot in ARM mode, this imply I will able to actually...
It dit not break. But it break the jump to no have the start.c in thumb mode. I spotted the bootrom enforcing of the jump : ``` __asm("bx %0\n" :...
It works. Will now bench everything like my life depends on answering the ARM vs Thumb-1 question.
