u-boot putting aarch64 configs under /arch/arm just bc it's armv8 is lawful evil behavior, emphasis on evil

Bare-metal SMP Armv8-R AArch32 in Rust, ping ponging Software Generated Interrupts between cores using the Generic Interrupt Controller v3.

I'm very happy to see this working.

I'm on vacation and I only have a Mac with me so naturally I'm slowly writing an actual JIT compiler for my toy language, casually fighting through ARMv8 ISA manual. Already got basic integer arithmetic working!

The 16-byte SP alignment rule caught me by surprise, ngl

Between all my computers/tablets (not consoles) these are the architectures I have around (for main CPU instruction set architecture; ascending order of release):

6502
TMS9900
Z80
6809
x86
68k
IA-32
PowerPC
ARM6
x86-64
ARMv7-A
ARMv8-A
This error message in Steam is amazing, because it's from back in 2019 when support of IA-32 (Intel's main architecture from 1985 to late 2000s) finally ended on Macs.

But... since late 2020 Macs use Apple Silicon which can't run Bootcamp (as the message suggests).

cuz.. it should be armv8+ equivalents.

Negative rings are mostly due to X86 being really old; as the ISA got more complex, we got "above 0" states.

Armv8 moves in a positive direction; higher numbers have more privilege. From EL0 (user space) to EL3 (State-Switching).


Apple does something extra funky:

How to multiply 2 integers in assembly.
X86-64:
IMUL dst, src— dst *= src

Well… it depends

but hey, now I have a working GICv3 driver, and hence can show my Armv7-R / Armv8-R AArch32 interrupt handler is working.

DietPi v10.7 comes with new images for ARMv8 VMs, containers with virtual network, LubanCat 4 SBC support, new software packages HomeBox and Scrypted, a new dietpi-network script, and dietpi-banner improvements.

RISC-V eller ARMv8 som minimum, helst også AMD64 men x86 er greit til nød, og litt 6502 syns jeg bare demonstrerer kjennskap til utfordringene som EDB medfører
September 11, 2026 at 12:15 PM
isa rankings based off ones i've written assembly for:

s: armv8+
a: riscv*
b: x86-64, 6502
c: ppc (no hardware needs to use this anymore. arm exists)
d: mips (seriously, no one needs to use this ever)

*vector extension kinda stinky tho last time i looked at it

Can anyone explain to me how SVC works in EL1 on Armv8-R? It doesn’t seem to work like Armv7-R.

Hello you fine Internet folks,

Today's article is on Huawei's first custom ARMv8 core called the TaiShen v110, AKA the Kunpeng 920, which is found in many DC products from server CPUs to network cards.

Hope y'all enjoy!

**Determining Current Arm Cortex-M Security State with GDB**

A short post on how comparing the current stack pointer register to the main and process stack pointer secure and non-secure variants can be used to determine the security state of Armv8-M processors.

Determining Current Arm Cortex-M Security State with GDB
In my day job and free time I frequently find myself debugging Arm Cortex-M microcontrollers (MCUs). In recent years, it has become more and more common for the cores in these MCUs to implement Armv8-...

Alright, finally able to test ARM builds...

... and naturally fastgltf fails to compile because it's missing ARMv8 CRC32 intrinsics. Fun.

Hello new followers. Nice to meet you.

Many things I may post about, when I get round to posting:

ducks
words
running
parkrun
bass guitar (double/electric)
video games
jazz
grunge
crosswords
the expanse
the armv8 instruction set
garbage collection
food crimes

Let me know if any of these appeal.

So... it looks like my Samsung Galaxy Note 4, model SAMSUNG-SM-N910A, uses the ARMv8-A-Exynos chipset. This is (I think?) less compatible (or perhaps outright incompatible) with the various Android 10 ROMs out there.

Regardless, this is a project for a more ambitious day.
I'm looking at scraping my old Note 4 completely clean and doing a non-Samsung Android install. While reviewing the photo gallery I found a few photos of the blue-line art I did for MUNCHKIN: STARFINDER.

Obviously I'll be backing these up (again?) before wiping the phone.

In this paper is presented GG, the first CISC-to-RISC transpiler built via a custom-trained, architecture-aware language model, achieving a test accuracy of 99.39% on ARMv8 and 89.93% on RISC-V64.
