Load and Store Instructions

With the R3900 Processor Core, the instruction immediately following a load instruction can use the loaded value. Hardware is interlocked for this purpose, causing a delay of one instruction cycle. Programming should be carried out with an awareness of the potential effects of the load delay slot.

The descriptions of load/store operations make use of the functions listed in Table A-2 in describing the handling of virtual addresses and physical memory.

	Table A-2. Common Load/Store Functions

Function		Meaning

AddressTranslation		A memory management unit (MMU) is used to find the physical
		address based on a given virtual address.
LoadMemory		The cache and main memory are used to find the contents of the
		word containing the designated physical address. The low-order
		two bits of the address and the access type field indicate which of
		the four bytes in the data word are to be returned. If the cache is
		enabled for this access, the whole word is returned and loaded into
		the cache.
StoreMemory		The cache, write buffer and main memory are used to store the
		word or partial word designated as data in the word containing the
		designated physical address. The low-order two bits of the
		address and the access type field indicate which of the four bytes
		in the data word are to be stored.

The access type field indicates the size of data to be loaded or stored, as given in Table A-3. An address always designates the byte with the smallest byte address in the addressed field, regardless of the access type or the order in which bytes are numbered (endian). This is the left-most byte if big endian is used and the right-most byte if little endian is used.
