I also like the page
<http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.subset.architecture.reference/>,
which contains highlights such as:

|ARMv7-AR Architecture Reference Manual
|[...]
|It also describes the later ARMv6 architecture releases for ARM11 processors
|
|ARMv7-M Architecture Reference Manual
|[...]
|
|ARMv6-M Architecture Reference Manual
|[...]
|
|The ARMv5 Architecture Reference Manual
|[...]
|It also describes the initial ARMv6 architecture release.

But at least this says for a number of CPUs what the right manual is,
which is better than the last experience I had with this stuff.

Actually it seems that they don't make any of that available to the
public.  all the publically available versions I have found are
bootlegs.
