Hi, (You have something wrong with your emails - the subject for your post had a copy of most of the body of the email. I have changed it to something smaller.) You can't use a function argument for the number of the SPR, because the assembler requires the SPR at assembly time to generate the full mtspr instruction. My solution was to use a macro for this, rather than a function (even a static inline function won't work): #define readSpr(sp) ({ uint32_t res; \ asm volatile (" mfspr %[res], %[spr] " : \ [res] "=r" (res) : \ [spr] "i" (sp) ); \ res; }) #define writeSpr(sp, va) \ asm volatile (" mtspr %[spr], %[val] " : \ : \ [spr] "i" (sp), [val] "r" (va) ) mvh., David On 08/07/16 16:16, Tran Tu Truong wrote: > Dear Mr/Ms; > > I am Truong, working at Vietnam human engineering in Vietnam. > Now, I am using D32 Design Studio for programming MPC5777C micro > controller (GNU C Compiler 4.9).
