## Arm is the target
|
||
|
|
||
|
So, since the first target is arm, some of us may need to learn a bit (yep, that's me). So this is
|
||
|
a collection of helpful resources (links and specs) with sometimes very very brief summaries.
|
||
|
|
||
|
So why learn assembler, after all, it's likely you spent your programmers life avoiding it:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Some things can not be expressed in Soml
|
||
|
- To speed things up.
|
||
|
- To add cpu specific capabilities
|
||
|
|
||
|

A very good [summary pdf](/arm/arm_inst.pdf) was created by the arm university, which i converted
|
||
|
to [html for online reading](/arm/target.html)
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Dave's](http://www.davespace.co.uk/arm/introduction-to-arm/why-learn.html) site explains just about
|
||
|
everything about the arm in nice and easy to understand terms.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A nice series on thinkgeek, here is the integer [division section](http://thinkingeek.com/2013/08/11/arm-assembler-raspberry-pi-chapter-15/) that has a
|
||
|
[code respository](https://github.com/rofirrim/raspberry-pi-assembler/blob/master/chapter15/magic.py)
|
||
|
with code to generate code for constants.
|
||
|
|
||
|
And off course there is the overwhelming arm infocenter, [here with it's bizarre division](http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0473c/CEGECDGD.html)
|
||
|
|
||
|
The full 750 page specification for the pi , the [ARM1176JZF-S is here](/arm/big_spec.pdf)
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Virtual pi
|
||
|
|
||
|
And since not everyone has access to an arm, here is a description how to set up an [emulated pi](/arm/qemu.html)
|
||
|
|
||
|
And how to [access that](/arm/remote_pi.html) or any remote machine with ssl
