Memory endianness
Directly accessing an alias region
Directly accessing a bit-band region
Figure 10-2. Bit-band mapping
Writing to a word in the alias region updates a single bit in the bit-band region.
Bit[0] of the value written to a word in the alias region determines the value written to the tar-
geted bit in the bit-band region. Writing a value with bit[0] set to 1 writes a 1 to the bit-band bit,
and writing a value with bit[0] set to 0 writes a 0 to the bit-band bit.
Bits[31:1] of the alias word have no effect on the bit-band bit. Writing 0x01 has the same effect as
writing 0xFF. Writing 0x00 has the same effect as writing 0x0E.
Reading a word in the alias region:
“Behavior of memory accesses” on page 56
word accesses to the bit-band regions.
The processor views memory as a linear collection of bytes numbered in ascending order from
zero. For example, bytes 0-3 hold the first stored word, and bytes 4-7 hold the second stored
word. or
• 0x00000000 indicates that the targeted bit in the bit-band region is set to zero
• 0x00000001 indicates that the targeted bit in the bit-band region is set to 1
