• If n is 32, then the value of the result is same as the value in Rm, and if the carry flag
is updated, it is updated to bit[31] of Rm.
•
ROR
with shift length, n, more than 32 is the same as
ROR
with shift length n-32.
34.2.3.4.5 RRX
Rotate right with extend moves the bits of the register Rm to the right by one bit. And it
copies the carry flag into bit[31] of the result. See Figure 145
.
When the instruction is
RRXS

MOVS
,
MVNS
,
ANDS
,
ORRS

ORNS
,
EORS
,
BICS
,
TEQ
or

, the carry flag is updated to bit[0] of the register
Rm.
34.2.3.5 Address alignment
An aligned access is an operation where a word-aligned address is used for a word, dual
word, or multiple word access, or where a halfword-aligned address is used for a halfword
access. Byte accesses are always aligned.
The Cortex-M3 processor supports unaligned access only for the following instructions:
•
LDR
,
LDRT
•
LDRH
,
LDRHT
•
LDRSH
,
LDRSHT
•
STR
,
STRT
•
STRH
,
STRHT
All other load and store instructions generate a usage fault exception if they perform an
unaligned access, and therefore their accesses must be address aligned. For more
information about usage faults see Section 34.3.4 “
Fault handling”.
Unaligned accesses are usually slower than aligned accesses. In addition, some memory
regions might not support unaligned accesses. Therefore, ARM recommends that
programmers ensure that accesses are aligned. To avoid accidental generation of
