Project stage 1 GCC build

This is the project stage 1, we will become familiar with the GCC build process on AArch86 and x86 platforms. 

1. Clone the GCC repository from the official source
git clone git://gcc.gnu.org/git/gcc.git
cd gcc

For AArch86
2. Creating build directory and configure GCC for AArch64
mkdir build-aarch64
cd build-aarch64
../configure --target=aarch64-linux-gnu --prefix=$HOME/gcc-aarch64 --disable-multilib

3. Starting the build process and install GCC 
make -j$(nproc)
make install

For x86
2. Creating build directory and configure GCC for x86
mkdir build-x86
cd build-x86
../configure --prefix=$HOME/gcc-x86 --disable-multilib
3. Starting the build process and install GCC
make -j$(nproc)
make install

While working on this project I leanred the build process and the necessary configurations for different architectures. The challenges was dealing with build dependenicies and managing long build times.

Project stage 3 Integrate, Tidy, & Wrap

 The project code's location in class git repository should be under  https://github.com/Seneca-CDOT/gcc/tree/2024-S-tests/gcc/testsuite/g%2B%2B.target/aarch64  with folder name afmv, but its still waiting for review required approve.   It is located in my branch waiting for the merge:  https://github.com/zijunlii/gcc/tree/master/gcc/testsuite/g%2B%2B.target/aarch64/afmv The directory structure is as follows: gcc/testsuite/g++.target/aarch64/  └── afmv/         ├── afmv_test_1.c         ├── afmv_test_1. exp          ├── afmv_test_2.c         ├── afmv_test_2. exp          ├── afmv_test_3.c         ├── afmv_test_3. exp          └── Makefile The AFMV capability correctly creates and executes multiple versions of functions. Only basic functionality is verified. More complex functions ...

lab 1 mob programming

In this lab our focus was on the 6502 Emulator, a tool that simulates the classic 6502 microprocessor. The task involved filling a bitmapped display with different colors and optimizing the performance of the code. This blog post will outline our experiments, performance calculations, code modifications, and personal reflections on the process. Initial Code:  lda #$00    ; set a pointer in memory location $40 to point to $0200 sta $40     ; ... low byte ($00) goes in address $40 lda #$02     sta $41     ; ... high byte ($02) goes into address $41 lda #$07    ; colour number ldy #$00    ; set index to 0 loop:   sta ($40),y  ; set pixel colour at the address (pointer)+Y     iny     ; increment index     bne loop    ; continue until done the page (256 pixels)     inc $41     ; increment the page     ldx $41  ...
