Astrobe Forum

This is for the RP2040. I am aware that Astrobe for Cortex-M0 does not yet officially support this MCU. Background, concepts, solution approach, as well as measurements and results related to my use case are described here: https://oberon-rtk.org/examples/codeloading/ In a nutshell, interrupt handle...

What is the best way to copy a procedure, eg. from Flash memory to RAM? For example: MODULE M; PROCEDURE p0; END p0; PROCEDURE p1; END P1; END M. Getting the procedure's starting address is straight forward, but how to detect its ending address? Scanning for 'pop' is not safe, as any relevant consta...

Test code (Astrobe v9.1 for Cortex-M0): MODULE M; PROCEDURE p(s: SET); END p; PROCEDURE run; VAR k: INTEGER; BEGIN p({k}); p({13}) END run; END M. Partial assembly code: PROCEDURE run; VAR k: INTEGER; BEGIN . 12 0CH 0B500H push { lr } . 14 0EH 0B081H sub sp,#4 p({k}); . 16 010H 09800H ldr r0,[sp] . ...

Today, I have made available a first set of Oberon modules to program the RP2040 using Astrobe for Cortex-M0, v9.0.3. There's also a tool to transmogrify Astrobe '.bin' file to the contents and UF2 format for the RP2040. The library contains as of today: 1) Basics to get off the ground: clocks, rese...
