  1. CS170 Computer Organization and Architecture I Ayman Abdel-Hamid Department of Computer Science Old Dominion University Lecture 15: 10/24/2002 CS170 Fall 2002

  2. Outline • Loops • Should cover section 3.5 CS170 Fall 2002

  3. A Loop with a variable array index • Loop: g = g + A[i]; • i = i + j; • If (i != h) go to Loop • Variables g, h, i, and j associated with $s1  $s4 • Array base is in $s5. What is the MIPS assembly code? • Loop: add $t1, $s3, $s3 # $t1  2 *i • add $t1, $t1, $t1 # $t1  4 *i • add $t1, $t1, $s5 # $t1  address of A[i] • lw $t0, 0($t1) # $t0  A[i] • add $s1, $s1, $t0 # g  g + A[i] • add $s3, $s3, $s4 # i = i+ j • bne $s3, $s2, Loop # go to Loop if i != h CS170 Fall 2002

  4. Save[i] == k? No Yes i = i +j Exit: A While Loop1/2 while (save[i] == k) i = i + j; i, j, and k associated with $s3  $s5. Base of array save is in $s6. What is MIPS Assembly code? • Loop: add $t1, $s3, $s3 # $t1  2 *i • add $t1, $t1, $t1 # $t1  4 *i • add $t1, $t1, $s6 # $t1  address of save[i] • lw $t0, 0($t1) # $t0  save[i] • bne $t0, $s5, Exit # go to Exit if save [i] != k • add $s3, $s3, $s4 #i = i + j • j Loop # go to Loop • Exit: CS170 Fall 2002

  5. A While Loop2/2 • Solve problem 3.9 (see handout) • Previous assembly code in while example uses a conditional branch and an unconditional jump each time through the loop, which is inefficient • Optimize the code so that it uses at most one branch or jump each time through the loop CS170 Fall 2002

  6. A less than test if ( a < b) go to Less a, b associated with $s0, and $s1, respectively. What is the MIPS assembly code? • To test for less than we introduce a new instruction • slt $t0, $s0, $s1 # slt is set on less than • Register $t0 is set to 1 if the value in register $s0 is less than the value in register $s1, otherwise, register $t0 is set to 0 • Register $zero always contains zero • Comparing $t0 to $zero gives us the effect of branching if a less than b • Combining slt with bne implements branch on less than slt $t0, $s0, $s1 # $t0  1 if a < b, otherwise $t0  0 bne $t0, $zero, Less # go to Less if $t0 != 0 …… Less: Why not provide one instruction that performs branch on less than? CS170 Fall 2002

  7. Case/Switch Statement1/3 • Switch statement allows the programmer to select one of many alternatives depending on a single value • Can be implemented as a series of if –then-else statements (not efficient) • Alternatively (or more efficiently) • First instruction within each case sequence is assigned a label (the label holds the address of the first instruction in the sequence) • These addresses are stored in a jump table in memory • Use new instruction • jr register (jump register) • Unconditional jump to the address specified in register • Program loads appropriate entry from jump table into a register, then jump to proper address using a jump register CS170 Fall 2002

  8. Jump table stored in memory L3 1036 1032 L2 1028 $t4 L1 1024 1024 L0 Case/Switch Statement2/3 • switch (k) { • case 0: f = i + j; break; • case 1: f = g + h; break; • case 2: f = g - h; break; • case 3: f = i – j; break; • } • Variables f through k associated with $s0  $s5. Register $t2 contains 4. • Register $t4 contains address of jump table in memory. MIPS Assembly code? Address of instruction f = i + j  label L0 Address of instruction f = g+ h  label L1 Address of instruction f = g - h  label L2 Address of instruction f = i - j  label L3 CS170 Fall 2002

  9. Case/Switch Statement3/3 slt $t3, $s5, $zero # test if k < 0 bne $t3, $zero, Exit # if k < 0 go to Exit slt $t3,$s5,$t2 # test if k < 4 beq $t3, $zero, Exit # if k >= 4 go to Exit add $t1,$s5,$s5 # $t1  2 *k (Why?) add $t1,$t1,$t1 # $t1  4 *k add $t1,$t1,$t4 # $t1  address of JumpTable[k] lw $t0,0($t1) # $t0  JumpTable[k] jr $t0 # jump to address found in register $t0 L0: add $s0, $s3, $s4 # (k = 0) then f = i +j j Exit # break (go to Exit) L1: add $s0,$s1,$s2 #(k = 1) then f = g+h j Exit # break (go to Exit) L2: sub $s0,$s1,$s2 #(k=2) then f = g-h j Exit L3: sub $s0,$s3,$s4 #(k=3) then f = i- j Exit: # End of switch statement CS170 Fall 2002

  10. What we know so far • Fig. 3.9 page 131 • instruction format for unconditional jump j (J-format) • <opcode (6 bits), target address (26 bits)> (more on target address in section 3.8) • The jr instruction  (R-format) • opcode = 0, funct = 8, rs is jump register • The slt instruction  (R-format) • Opcode = 0, funct = 42, rs, rd, rt • The beq, bne instructions  (I-format) • $zero always contains the value 0 • The instruction beq $s1, $s2, 100 is an I-format instruction. The resulting machine code • Op| rs | rt | address • 4 | 17 | 18 | 25 • Why the value in address field is 25 and not 100? Will discuss this when we cover section 3.8 CS170 Fall 2002
