armv5 vs armv6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I just read the "The ARM Architecture Version 6 (ARMv6)" whitepaper. It 
seems all new v6 features can be toggled on/off so my guess is that from 
an ISA point of view a working emulator solution should work on the 
physical device. However there are several performance improvements 
(such as ASID) to be used on armv6.

Quoting the paper:

"ARMv6 maintains 100% backward compatibility at the binary level for 
operating
systems and applications."
