To be brief:
1) Is there a canonical assembly code (and/or architecture)
reference manual?
2) What is it?
3) Where can I get it?
To be a little bit more long-winded: I'm leading a class this
summer that's basically a BSD code-reading class (i.e., "Now that you've
written a toy operating system for your OS course, here's how a real
operating system deals with those problems.") I'm planning on looking at
the Sparc port, so I need to be able to read things llike locore.s.
(If someone wants to suggest a different port to look at and why,
I'm open to suggestions. The hp700 port would be a good one, 'cause the
PA-RISC 1.1 manual is available on the Web, but it hasn't happened yet.)
Many thanks,
