I don't see how EX is self modifying code.
No code is modified at all.

Huh?

Don't know about X86, but EX is not used for I/O.

Even better than EX is EXRL (Execute using a relative address instead
of base displacement.  The EXRL solves the clutter that comes from
using a label in column 1.  If you are using structured programming
macros and indentation, a label messes up everything.

Here's one way to use EXRL:

  SR   R1,R1             clear R1
  IC   R1,LEN            len of data to move
  IF   (AHI,R1,-1,NZ)    calc len - 1 for MVC and test for no move needed
    MVC  TARGET(0),SOURCE  move first byte
    EXRL R1,*-6            move all the bytes
  ENDIF ,
  
The reference to *-6 is the start of the MVC instruction so,
no label needed.

The trick is that you can safely move the first byte (TARGET(0)
overrides any length attribute TARGET might have).
There is no significant performance hit because you're
just really getting the SOURCE and TARGET fields into cache for the real move.
Another benefit is that the MVC and EXRL are right next to each other
making the code easier to read.

It is - you do construct an instruction, and then run it.

That's right. In 360, it was to fill in the missing possibility
to change the fixed length code in the instruction. The needed use
in 8080 derivatives was the same, but the cast-in-concrete instructions
are for I/O there.

In my vocabulary, any way of building an instruction and then
running it is self-modifying code.

The computed GOTO (indirect branch/jump) is a different can of
worms. There are perfectly legitimate uses for it, but it is
also a way to wreak havoc.

MMm. well lets say you construct a CALL TABLE or  JUMP TABLE
...and modify the contents.

or even have the power to write to the PC stack ...

you don't need explicit machine instructions to effect self modifiable code.

And indeed as multitasking scheduler is in a sense self modifying code.

Effect an interruption, save the context, switch the stack pointer, 
restore new context and IRET.

performance issue shows up in machines that prefetch and decode a block
of instructions ... where instruction modified may have already been
fetched and decoded. also shows up in machines with separate I&D caches
where I-cache is assumed to be read/only ... and storage modifications
only show up as D-cache (I-cache issues similar to I-stream having
already fetched and decode instruction before modification occurs).

If you change instructions and execute them, self modifying.
If you change offsets or masks and use them in an EX instruction,
not self modifying.

>Execute is the lightest model of self-modifying code

A polite view of EXECUTE is that it implements a
one instruction subroutine :-)

I believe self modifying code is justified
when the CPU lacks a feature
required to accomplish a necessary task.

Code obfuscation is a clever hack but not for production code.


The IBM 360's EXECUTE modified the 2nd byte of the target instruction.
For "S" (storage) format instructions,
the 2nd byte is the length as a literal.
By executing an "S" instruction,
the length was now variable from any of the general purpose registers.


Classic CPUs followed these simple cycles
- fetch an instruction from memory into the instruction register
- increment the PC (program counter)
  [the instruction could depend on the PC
  already pointing to the next instruction to fetch,
  important for PC-relative addressing]
- execute the instruction in the instruction register


Some systems hijacked the memory access to jam in an alternate instruction.
For example, Intel 8080 peripherals reply to an interrupt acknowledge
with a 1 byte RESTART instruction (RST 0 - RST 7)
to force a jump-to-subroutine to the interrupt handler
because there was no interrupt vector hardware.

Some systems allowed loading the instruction register
to jam in an instruction. It was then executed immediately,
without any memory access or program counter increment.
A few examples of that:

1) The custom CPU of the AN/ALR-66 radar warning receiver
allowed loading the ALU result directly into the instruction register.
Since it had only 1 index register, I kinda almost justified
using that for indexing other tables
without juggling the index register for every access.

It worked like this:
The instruction format for memory access (load, store)
had the address at the least significant 12 bits.
(it was a 24 bit machine).
So adding an index/offset/subscript to the instruction
(from one of the general registers)
resulted in modifying just the address,
leaving the rest of the instruction unchanged.
Put the result into the instruction register and VOILA!
Instant alternate index register!

I tested that only while I was learning the system
and NEVER PUT ANY SUCH HORROR INTO PRODUCTION!
The reason? It was impossible to debug.
There was no way to examine the result of the ALU
before it was executed because it was internal to the CPU
beyond the reach of the display panel or any logic probes.

2) Vintage computers such as the LGP-21
allowed direct access to the instruction register
via programming or the front panel,
thus "the story of Mel".

3) Microprocessor systems too cheap to have a front panel with
circuitry to read/write RAM forced the poor user to jam instructions
into the CPU (instruction fetch from switches instead from RAM)
just to read/write RAM, set PC, etc.

But that's following the fine tradition of cost reduction
used by early machines such as the Bendix G-15, LGP-30, LGP-21.
I vaguely remember how each Flexowriter keystroke
shifted 5-6 bits into the instruction register
to 'single step' execute once enough bits were accumulated.



The days of self modifying code are over
with instruction pre-fetch, pipelines, cache,
strict Harvard architecture (separate I and D memory)
and microcontrollers/SoC that run code only from flash.

That's what killed cleverness such as
running one ahead of the instruction fetch
as in this clever way to clear all memory
on an IBM 1130 with just 2 instructions.
[the IAR: Instruction Address Register is what
we now call the PC: Program Counter].

	C000  load accumulator from memory address IAR
	D000  store accumulator to memory address IAR

Then ZAP! All memory was 0xD000 (all memory was 16 bits wide).
Without any index register for *c++, how does it work?
The magic is IAR-relative addressing.

The "load accumulator" loads the accumulator
with the contents of memory at (IAR + 0): zero offset from the IAR.
Since the IAR was already incremented,
it points to the STORE instruction.

The "store accumulator" stores the accumulator
(containing the store instruction itself)
to memory at (IAR + 0).
Since the IAR was already incremented,
that is the memory location immediately AFTER the STORE instruction executing.

Lather, rinse, repeat :-)

	While the Sigma did have index capability (using registers 1-7; 0
encoded no indexing), it also supported one-level indirect addressing -- in
which the data being loaded was retrieved via an address stored at the
address in the operation. So one could work arrays via the complex of:

	LD,<scratch register>	Start_of_Array
	ADD,<scratch register>	Offset
	LD,<data register>		*<scratch register>	;* means indirect address

vs

	LD,<index register>	Offset
	LD,<data register>		Start_of_Array,<index register>

	That's why I brought in the self extending concept, to my eye
there's a substantial difference between adding new code and changing the
code that's there.

On the Plessey S250 each subroutine had its own block. The entire block 
was moved and the 3 word entry in the system table updated. All 
addresses were offsets down the block. The start offset lived in a 
special capability register. Unfortunately the operating system was 
hopeless at updating the global system table.

	I think there needs to be a distinction between self modifying code
(evil incarnate) and self extending code (quite common - think JIT
compilers). I've never seen a good reason for the former and in these days
of deep pipelines and multi-layer caching it would almost certainly be a
terrible thing to do from a performance perspective.

Of course. But not all processors have had stack pointers, not all 
processors have had index registers, and the PC can't be used to access 
data in a useful way (at least for arrays, I am aware of the PDP-11 etc.).

One of the more successful early CPUs did not have an index register, did 
not have a stack pointer, and had no way of using the PC to access data. 
It did have a way to do serial access to array elements.
