And I am used to FORTRAN, which did not trap on integer overflows. Incorrect. Integer overflow is illegal in Fortran, so what the compiler then does is not determined (see my post on random number generators).

Principle is better in theory than in practice.

Face it, the poor slug writing the code may not have the faintest
grasp at the system qualities we are discussing, and does not care
to learn as long as he can slug through the writing and his pro-
gram not blow up catastrophically while it is under his purview.
That defines a lot of what is wrong with SW programming today.

You would be surprised at how little influence implementors have

My VAX favorite was:
for( int i = 1; i; i+=i )
Traps instead of exiting the loop normally.

Old FORTRAN had no unSigned integer type and no way to avoid overflows.

You can design the ISA and compiler as one likes. But, if existing C code breaks, well then this is not good. One might think: You know, wrap on overflow, and type promotion where it overflows and wraps, and *then* promotes to the wider type on the final assignment, is kinda stupid and sucks. And, if one goes by "well, signed overflow is UB anyways", then they should be able to turn it into a "promote first, then ADD" scenario (may be both potentially faster, and less likely to lose information). I would be inclined to agree. But... there is old code around that will quietly break if the integer overflow and promotion doesn't follow the specific behavior that mimics how it would have behaved on 32-bit systems. I vaguely remember a case of this involving some robot enemies that drive around in ROTT, where if the integer overflow failed to work in just the right way, they would all miss their way-points and end up crashing into walls or similar. Where, the robot enemies followed a path defined as a series of waypoints (in a grid world), and once the robot hits a particular spot on the grid cell, it will change directions and head along the path. But, the particular way the expression to handle this was written was sensitive to the type promotion and wrap-on-overflow semantics in C. Also a similar case involving the "elevators", which were effectively timed teleporters between different parts of the map (would close door, play elevator sound, then right at the end as the door opens, it would teleport the player to the other location and initiate a screen shaking effect at around the same time). If the overflow was wrong, the teleport would fail and the player would still be in the original location. One could fix this stuff with casts or similar, but, when does one draw the line exactly?... Easier sometimes to make it to work, than to try to justify the code was already broken due to reliance on UB. Well, and to match the behavior of the other compilers, needed to implement the behavior the way ROTT expected. Where, as noted, ROTT uses fixed-point math with "fixed" as a signed 32-bit integer, and some cases involve calculations with coordinates well outside the world bounds with the seeming intention that these high-order components simply disappear into the ether (with the world essentially treated as a wrapping modulo space). But, as noted, it differed from my BS2 language, where the default was effectively to auto-promote values to the widest reasonable integer type in these cases and then drop down to the final range afterwards (to avoid some integer overflows in cases they would happen in C). Well, and within BGBCC, there was some non-zero bleed-over between C and BS2 (where originally I had been implementing BS2 via BGBCC, with the intention that it would compile to an IL image that would then be run in the VM). The original VM however, while fast, ended up with horrible code-bloat. Had gotten creative with the use of the C preprocessor in ways that were ultimately a terrible idea (errm, trying to use it sorta like a poor-man's version of C++ templates). Binaries got huge, build times sucked. This VM was a dead end. Ironically, some of my current ISA projects were built on some of the groundwork left by this experiment, but also as a warning for something not to do. Or, when I learned the merit of actually writing all the opcode handler functions and similar by hand and not trying to do combinatorial stuff via the preprocessor. Also for the follow up VM (for BS2), had went back to ye-olde stack machine (vs a Register IR model). But, some parts of this were relevant to targeting an "actual CPU". The way JX2VM works isn't too far removed from those VMs in some ways, apart from JX2VM's general avoidance of getting too clever with the C preprocessor. ...

Some machines before the IBM System/360 did use little-endian ordering for multiple words, to simplify handling the carries when adding pairs of words. Until the PDP-11 came along, though, _nobody_ thought of putting the characters inside a word starting at the least-significant end, so that the ordering of bytes would be consistent with the ordering of words. Until the PDP-11 came along, therefore, little-endian wasn't a "thing"; while the most significant part of a two-word integer might be placed second, so you could fetch the parts in forwards order and start adding right away, but that wasn't part of a philosophy. The System/360 _only_ did BCD arithmetic with the SS instructions, it didn't put BCD in registers. So it wasn't forced to use big-endian by my consistency argument; binary values could still have been little-endian if they had preferred. But the different machines in the System/260 family had different bus widths. So they couldn't just be little-endian at the 16-bit level; they would have had to have been consistent. I suppose they could have thought of it first even if they didn't have the PDP-11 to copy from. But because almost all their machines were microcoded, they were in a position to do things like working backwards from the end of a number to do arithmetic to avoid having a severe cost penalty for big-endian.

While the System/360 had only two condition code bits, I do plan to have full VZNC bits. However, unlike the System/360, I do not have a complete set of sixteen conditional branch instructions. I just have twelve: eight instructions for testing between negative, zero, and positive nonzero in any combination, and instructions for separately testing for carry and overflow. However, if I have enough opcode space to add a U bit to all the conditional branch instructions, then I also have enough opcode space to fix that instead, so I likely will rework this part of the ISA into something more conventional. I want a compare instruction which, for integers, isn't fooled by overflows - and overflows happen at a different point in the two's complement number circle for signed and unsigned; for unsigned, basically carry takes the role of overflow. And I don't want to have to do two instructions for the conditional branch afterwards to handle that. So I _may_ still need a separate compare unsigned, even though the rest of your points are well taken. John Savard

I have now given the matter thought, and I found that it would indeed be necessary to add an extra bit to all the conditional jump, branch, or set flag instructions to indicate the test was being applied to the condition code settings left after an integer arithmetic instruction on integers deemed to be unsigned. Amazingly enough, however, it turned out that in each case there was no difficulty in finding the additional opcode space that was needed. John Savard

The fact that IA-32/AMD64 and ARM A64 do not have a special compare instruction for unsigned integers (and manage to do with NCVZ) shows that this is unnecessary. What you do for your "if (-100<100)" case is encode it (on AMD64) as cmpb %r8, %r9 #note that AT&T syntax has the arguments reversed jnl target ... code to execute if r9<r8 ... target: And JNL (jump if not less) tests for N=V (the Intel manual writes SF=OF).

The good news is that this only concerns the 16-bit short instructions. A compiler can choose to ignore them if it can't handle them. Currently, the 16-bit instructions provide the following: All the basic operate instructions for two integer types; they can only operate on the first eight integer registers. The basic floating operate instructions for one floating-point type; the register specification is the one used with Concertina II's paired 15-bit operate instructions; choose one of four banks of eight registers, and both operands must be in that bank. The idea is that it can be used for efficient pipelined code where four sequences of instructions which are independent are interleaved. Everything else is straightforwards; the 24-bit short instructions and all the 32-bit and longer instructions that operate on registers allow the use of all 32 registers in a bank. Of course, though, the other restrictions are still present - seven choices for an index register, seven choices for a base register (for each of three displacement sizes, 20, 16, and 12 bits). I think I have indeed achieved the goal which, when I started out, I thought might prove to be an "impossible dream" - combining what a CISC instruction set offers with what a RISC instruction set offers, and yet doing so without making the instructions longer than they usually are in those instruction types. Except for register-to-register operate instructions being 24 bits instead of 16 bits, this has been achieved - but for a very limited subset of the possible register-to-register operate instructions, chosen by me as the ones I think are the most useful and popular - and I realize the choice is subjective and hence potentially controversial - the 16-bit instruction length is retained! I think it's an ISA that, in this respect, has achieved more than anyone could have expected! Now, of course, whether or not this is an achievement that anyone cares about, that anyone wants, that anyone is interested in... well, I don't know. John Savard

I had a tiny bit of unused opcode space within the 32-bit operate instructions. As well, there were a couple of lengths of instructions longer than 32 bits which were allocated more opcode space than they actually needed. That let me move those two lengths of instructions, plus one other length of instructions longer than 32 bits which kept is entire, though small, allocation of opcode space, into that unused space. And that let me increase the opcode space allocated to 16-bit short instructions from 1/16th of the opcode space to 3/32nds of the opcode space. Which allowed me to give them a much simpler and plainer format, of which it finally could be argued - without the claim being utterly laughable - that they offer just about what 16-bit short instructions do in a CISC architecture. So now the 16-bit short instructions have all 96 basic operate opcodes, so they can perform all the basic operations on all the basic integer and floating-point types. They are in all cases now limited to just the first eight registers. So this is inferior to the System/360, which has sixteen, but it matches the 680x0 which had eight. Finally, I have achieved my dream, insane and useless though it may be! John Savard

I've taken the opportunity now, before things go on, to modify this addition in one important way: I've precluded the possibility that the complexity of instruction length encoding might grow without bounds by specifying the length scheme now for any prefixed instructions that might be added.

The compiler will, indeed, probably have difficulty dealing with a kind of restriction that no one else has ever put in an ISA. But this is moot now. I've found some additional opcode space for 16-bit short instructions. Not much, just enough to increase the available opcode space by a factor of 1.5. So now all the operations are restricted to only the first eight registers - but 16-bit short instructions now support all the basic data types. John Savard

After realizing that I did need a second instruction for unsigned
_division_ I then learned, to my shock, that division was not one, but
two, instructions, at least in my architecture, for integers.
And there didn't seem to be enough opcode space left for Divide Extensibly
Unsigned.
I was able to re-adjust the 32-bit operate instructions so that the two
places where only 96 opcodes were provided for the basic operate
instructions could now provide 128 opcodes.
The 16-bit and 24-bit short instructions could not be so modified. But
there were a few unused opcodes; so Divide Extensibly Unsigned could still
fit in, just out of place.
But that meant that this one operation would be missing from the minimum-
length immediate instructions, and would still be treated as out of the
basic instruction set, getting immediate instructions that were 16 bits
longer, for them.
The Pigeonhole Principle has finally bit me!

I have found a way around even that problem. There is no use for a "swap immediate" instruction, so I'll put Divide Extensibly Unsigned in its spot, so it will be in the columns for its types, and put the swap instruction, another exotic one, in the out-of-place spots left over.

My 66000 has an instruction bit that denotes the signedness of integer
calculations {Signed, unSigned}. This bit is available as another OpCode
bit for non-integer calculation instructions.

That's nice. It's not an option I can consider, as having lots of
orthogonal modifiers on instructions would tend to increase their length.
A major goal of the Concertina II, III, and IV architectures is for
instructions not to be longer than similar instructions on the Motorola
68020 or the IBM System/360 if at all possible.
Basically, the selling point is... "Your programs only get 10% bigger, if
that, and yet you have 32 registers, so they run faster!".
Or they _would_, if the design didn't have so many extra transistors for
supporting both IBM-format and Intel-format Decimal Floating Point, old-
style IBM floats, simple floating (You too can work with numbers that go
around the world 2 1/2 times!), packed decimal, mixed-radix arithmetic...
But, hey, supporting these things in hardware is faster than doing them in
software!
And are people even going to _read_ the part of the manual that
explains... as is noted in the description of the original Concertina
architecture...
This chip has 8-way simultaneous multi-threading, but only for programs
which do not make use of extensions to the register set.
Only two programs per core may use the extended register banks with 128
elements.
Only one program per core may use the vector registers for long vector
instructions. The 256-bit short vector registers, on the other hand, like
the integer and floating-point registers, are available to all
simultaneous threads.
