embedded - PC value in between two instructions (program counter) -


trying understand cause of watchdog. snippet of assembly routine follows:

fe813cf0:       2820            cmp     r0, #32 fe813cf2:       dbf0            blt.n   fe813cd6 <xyz+0x10> fe813cf4:       f04f 30ff       mov.w   r0, #4294967295 ; 0xffffffff fe813cf8:       bd10            pop     {r4, pc}

my pc value dump fe813cf3. mean? how should interpret it? please let me know if more info required.

if it's watchdog triggers, seems indicate processor has hung. state you're capturing might corrupt, in worst case. not sure how "dump", it's hard tell.

in general on arm, odd address indicates jump wanted switch thumb instruction set.

see instance this documentation of bx (branch exchange) instruction:

the bx instruction branches address contained in specified register. value of bit 0 of branch address determines whether execution continues in arm state or thumb state.

bit 0 of address can used in way because:

  • all arm instructions word-aligned. means bits 0 , 1 of address of arm instruction ignored because these bits refer halfword , byte part of address.

  • all thumb instructions halfword-aligned. means bit 0 of address of thumb instruction ignored because refers byte part of address.

however, i'm pretty sure above implies pc never set odd address, bit 0 cleared branch instruction.

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers
