Cortex M0+ ARM Assembly - How to implement a loop position independent

问题

我正在使用Arm Cortex M0+ STM32 Nucleo板和Keil MDK版本5.36进行工作。
请注意 - 我有嵌入式背景,但对ARM汇编不熟悉,正在学习中。

挑战:
我想在执行其他应用程序的同时,将汇编代码的某些行的字节码复制到RAM中,并通过分支到它来执行RAM中的代码。

现在我卡在实现循环作为位置无关代码上,以便在将其复制到RAM中的“随机”地址后它能正常工作。

这是代码 - 它包括整个测试它的代码框架。我想要复制到RAM的相关代码片段是“copy_loop”。

运行在调试器/反汇编器中,我看到条件跳转是使用绝对地址实现的。

如何将它变成位置无关条件跳转(使用M0+指令集),以便在复制到任何位置后都能运行。非常感谢您的帮助!已经阅读了大量的资料,但缺少“Eureka”时刻。

英文:

I am working on an Arm Cortex M0+ STM32 Nucleo Board and use Keil MDK version 5.36.
Heads up - I have embedded background but I am new to ARM assembly magic and in the process of learning it.

The challenge:
I would like to copy the bytecode from some lines of assembly code into RAM while executing some other application and execute the code in RAM by branching to it.

Now I am stuck to implement the loop as position independent code, so that it will work after it was copied to an "random" address in RAM.

This is the Code - It includes the whole Code-Framework to test it. The relevant piece of code I would like to copy to RAM is the "copy_loop"

Stack	EQU	0x00000100	;Define Stacksize of 256 Bytes
		AREA	STACK, NOINIT, READWRITE, ALIGN=3

StackMem	SPACE	Stack
	
		AREA	RESET,DATA, READONLY
		EXPORT __Vectors
	
__Vectors
		DCD StackMem+ Stack
		DCD Reset_Handler
		ALIGN

		AREA simpleProject, CODE, READONLY, ALIGN=2
		ENTRY
		EXPORT Reset_Handler

Reset_Handler
		LDR	r0, =0x00000000 ; Source Address
		LDR	r1, =0x20000300	; Destination address
		LDR r2,	=100	;number of bytes to copy

copy_loop	LDRB	r3, [r0]	;read 1 byte
			ADDS	r0, r0, #1	;increment source pointer
			STRB	r3, [r1]	; write 1 Byte
			ADDS	r1, r1, #1	; increment destination pointer
			subs	r2, r2, #1	;decrement loop counter
			BNE		copy_loop	;loop untill all data copied
		END

Running in the Debugger/Dissassmbler I see, that the conditional jump is realized with the absolute address.

28:                         BNE          copy_loop    ;loop untill all data copied 
0x08000018 D1F9      BNE      0x0800000E

How can I get it into a position independent conditional jump (with the M0+ instruction set), so that it will run from any position it is copied to.
Really appreciate your help! Have been reading tons of stuff, but miss the HEUREKA moment.

All you need to do is read the instruction documentation to see that it is strictly a pc relative offset.

or just try it

.thumb
lab0: nop; nop; nop; bne lab0
lab1: nop; nop; nop; bne lab1
lab2: nop; nop; nop; bne lab2
lab3: nop; nop; nop; bne lab3
lab4: nop; nop; nop; bne lab4
lab5: nop; nop; nop; bne lab5
lab6: nop; nop; nop; bne lab6

arm-none-eabi-objdump -d so.o | grep bne
6: d1fb bne.n 0
e: d1fb bne.n 8
16: d1fb bne.n 10
1e: d1fb bne.n 18
26: d1fb bne.n 20
2e: d1fb bne.n 28
36: d1fb bne.n 30

position indepedent.

cortex-m0+ is not an instruction set it is an IP product. When you looked at the technical reference manual for the cortex-m0+ it says arv6-m and you can then get the architectural reference manual for armv6-m. In this case this instruction goes all the way back to the start of thumb, so any of the architectural reference manuals, full sized or other (not 64 bit) has this instruction.
