Processor-creative-kit

This is a haskell package for playing processors.

You can create your processors with your own instruction set and cpu simulators and development tools.

enjoy! :smiley:

Summary

Feature

• easy try, easy modify
• a purely functional CPU core (without IO) (you can embed it anywhere)
• including a very simple prototype assembler
• including a very simple prototype debugger
• including a very simple prototype profiler

Acknowledgements

• I was inspired from these packages: HARM, powerpc, ministg, hython.
• and many processors, many tools. Thank you.

Quick tour

(i) install

To expand the source code in your working directory:

$ cd YOUR_WORK_DIRECTORY
$ cabal unpack processor-creative-kit

or

$ tar xvzf processor-creative-kit.tar.gz

Then, install the dependent packages:

$ cabal install --only-dependencies

(ii) run examples

run

$ runhaskell examples/run.hs examples/test0.asm

result:

pc : 3
gr : [0,100,200,300,0,0,0,0]
fl : [False,False]

(idb) q

(iii) add instructions

add an negative instruction (neg r0,r1)

insert following lines:

[Language/Pck/Cpu/Instruction.hs] ... internal representation on the cpu

            | NEG   GReg GReg

[Language/Pck/Cpu/Execution.hs] ... internal behavior on the cpu

  evalStep (NEG   ra rb)    = uniopInst (*(-1)) ra rb

[Language/Pck/Tool/Assembler.hs] ... assembler format

           <|> inst2 NEG  "neg" greg greg

Note

Default processor architecture

• Harvard architecture. (instruction and data memories are splitted)
• fixed length instruction (word length)
• word addressing (not byte addressing)
• ideal immediate length (an immediate can be set by one instruction)
• no FPU, MMU, cache, privilege level, interruption, I/O, and any

Limitation

• using the slow container(Data.Array) for simple implementation.
