Cortex-M0 Thumb-2 instruction: Is this instruction valid?

Héctor

STM     r0!, {}

I have looked at Thumb2 instruction set web but I can't find the behaviour of STM command if the reglist is empty.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi hector.bravo,

    it is not valid and any compiler probably cannot deal with the instruction. As Mr. daith says, STMDB/LDMDB register list requires more than one register. However, a compiler can deal with the register list which has one register. In the case, STM would be replaced with STR.

    stmdb r0!,{r1} =>  str.w   r1, [r0, #-4]!

    I guess some disassembler might show "stm r0!,{}" for the code "0xc000".

    Best regards,
    Yasuhiko Koumoto.
