Address alignment

An aligned access is an operation where a word-aligned address is used for a word, dual

word, or multiple word access, or where a halfword-aligned address is used for a halfword

access. Byte accesses are always aligned.

The Cortex-M3 processor supports unaligned access only for the following instructions:

•

LDR, LDRT

•

LDRH, LDRHT

•

LDRSH, LDRSHT

•

STR, STRT

•

STRH, STRHT

All other load and store instructions generate a usage fault exception if they perform an

unaligned access, and therefore their accesses must be address aligned. For more

information about usage faults see Fault handling on page 40.

Unaligned accesses are usually slower than aligned accesses. In addition, some memory

regions might not support unaligned accesses. Therefore, ARM recommends that

programmers ensure that accesses are aligned. To avoid accidental generation of unaligned

accesses, use the UNALIGN_TRP bit in the configuration and control register to trap all

unaligned accesses, see Configuration and control register (SCB_CCR) on page 137.

3.3.6

PC-relative expressions

A PC-relative expression or label is a symbol that represents the address of an instruction or

literal data. It is represented in the instruction as the PC value plus or minus a numeric

offset. The assembler calculates the required offset from the label and the address of the

current instruction. If the offset is too big, the assembler produces an error.

•

For the B, BL, CBNZ, and CBZ instructions, the value of the PC is the address of the

current instruction plus four bytes.

•

For all other instructions that use labels, the value of the PC is the address of the

current instruction plus four bytes, with bit[1] of the result cleared to 0 to make it word-

aligned.

•

Your assembler might permit other syntaxes for PC-relative expressions, such as a

label plus or minus a number, or an expression of the form [PC, #number].
