I cannot tell because I don't see a specification for Zama16b in > > https://wiki.riscv.org/display/HOME/RISC-V+Specification+Status I think Zama16b first named in RVA23 profile as Alistair points out. The more detailed information about its meaning is in priviledged 1.13 specification. More exactly, in 3.6.4. Misaligned Atomicity Granule PMA. The specification said: "The misaligned atomicity granule PMA applies only to AMOs, loads and stores defined in the base ISAs, and loads and stores of no more than MXLEN bits defined in the F, D, and Q extensions. For an instruction in that set, if all accessed bytes lie within the same misaligned atomicity granule, the instruction will not raise an exception for reasons of address alignment, and the instruction will give rise to only one memory operation for the purposes of RVWMO—i.e., it will execute atomically." That's the reason why I do not apply zama16b to compressed instructions. Thanks, Zhiwei > > > r~

Given the non-specificity of this paragraph, I think not specifically calling out compressed forms of the base ISA is simply a documentation error. In general, the compressed ISA is supposed to be a smaller encoding of the exact same instruction as the standard ISA. However! It does explicitly say "no more than MXLEN bits", which means that an RV32/RV64 check is appropriate for FLD/FSD, since MXLEN may be less than 64. In addition, your change for AMOs is incomplete. From the text: If a misaligned AMO accesses a region that does not specify a misaligned atomicity granule PMA, or if not all accessed bytes lie within the same misaligned atomicity granule, then an exception is raised. The second clause corresponds exactly with the Arm FEAT_LSE2. See check_lse2_align in target/arm/tcg/translate-a64.c. r~ PS: The first clause is similar to Arm access to pages marked as Device memory, for which all misaligned accesses trap. I didn't dig deep enough to see how PMAs are defined to suggest how that might be applied.

Although I don't know why MXLEN is needed as F, D or Q don't depend on MXLEN. We can implement D extension on RV32 CPU. > > In addition, your change for AMOs is incomplete.

Implementation of D on RV32 does not mean that FLD/FST is atomic -- it can be implemented with two 32-bit loads/stores under the hood. r~

We should fix this before the release I will send the follow patch as soon as possible. And resolve another comment Richard gives later as it need some work on PBMT(I think).

Both trans_fld/fsd/flw/fsw and gen_load/store will never be a translation function for compressed instructions, thus we can remove instruction length check for them.
