    1、Arm compiler 6 下target分为两种:aarch64-arm-none-eabi(对应AArch64执行状态)和armv8a-arm-none-eabi(对应AArch32执行状态),当target设置为aarch64-arm-none-eabi时无法使用内嵌汇编指令QADD、QADD16等,当target设置为armv8a-arm-none-eabi时可以使用内嵌汇编指令QADD、QADD16等,这应该是和两种执行状态各种的指令集相关,但是前面提前的可以编译时在Debug下…

    早在一年之前,ARM 就早早公布了支持 64 位虚拟寻址的新型 ARMv8 架构的初步细节。由于消息公布地相对较早,该架构成为人们公开讨论的焦点,更重要的是,开源社区已针对该架构开始着手相关工作。这一策略行之有效,近期 Linux 内核已从版本3.7开始支持 AArch64 ,并从版本4.7 开始支持 GCC 工具.

    慢慢的讨论的焦点转移到了具体实施情况以及各种面市的设备上,我想利用这个机会,和诸位探讨一下为什么会发生这种功能上的飞跃,以及这种进步在今后几年内将对使用该技术的数十亿设备产生何种影响…
