Processing Modes

This LSI supports two processing modes: user mode and privileged mode. These processing

modes can be determined by the processing mode bit (MD) in the status register (SR). If the MD

bit is cleared to 0, the user mode is selected. If the MD bit is set to 1, the privileged mode is

selected. The CPU enters the privileged mode by a transition to reset state or exception handling

state. In the privileged mode, any registers and resources in address spaces can be accessed.

Clearing the MD bit in the SR to 0 puts the CPU in the user mode. In the user mode, some of the

registers, including SR, and some of the address spaces cannot be accessed by the user program

and system control instructions cannot be executed. This function effectively protects the system

resources from the user program. To change the processing mode from user to privileged mode, a

transition to exception handling state is required.

Note:

To call a service routine used in privileged mode from user mode, the LSI supports an

unconditional trap instruction (TRAPA). When a transition from user mode to privileged

mode occurs, the contents of the SR and PC are saved. A program execution in user mode

can be resumed by restoring the contents of the SR and PC. To return from an exception

processing program, the LSI supports an RTE instruction.
