MC9S08DZ60 core test

Hello,

we are developing a diagnostic module for this processor in which we are testing all the core instructions. These tests are coded directly in assembly language in C functions using HIL. The problem is that the compiler optimizes some instructions by replacing them with others. For example:

 

  449:       cpuBHS:
  450:          ; BHS: Branch if Higher or Same
  451:          ; A = 0x55
  452:          cmp #0x56
  007c a156     [2]             CMP   #86
  453:          bhs cpuEr                        ; Should never branch
  007e 247f     [3]             BCC   LFF ;abs = 00ff
  454:          cmp #CORETESTCFG_LOGIC_VAL1
  0080 a155     [2]             CMP   #85
  455:          bhs cpuBHS2                        ; Should branch
  0082 2402     [3]             BCC   L86 ;abs = 0086
  0084          L84:    
  456:          bra cpuEr                        ; Go fail
  0084 2079     [3]             BRA   LFF ;abs = 00ff
  0086          L86:    
  457:       cpuBHS2:
  458:          cmp #0x54
  0086 a154     [2]             CMP   #84
  459:          bhs cpuBLE                        ; Should branch
  0088 2402     [3]             BCC   L8C ;abs = 008c
  008a          L8A:    
  460:          bra cpuEr                        ; Go fail
  008a 2073     [3]             BRA   LFF ;abs = 00ff
  008c          L8C:    

We want to test the BHS instruction but the compiler uses BCC instead. The only relevant compiler options that we use are -Onf and -OnB=b.

Is there a way to solve this problem ?

Thanks in advance for any help,

 

Matteo

BCC is the same as BHS

BCS is the same as BLO

 

You can check the actual opcodes in the manual.

Thank you very much, I will check the opcodes on the manual.

Brash when higher or same and branch if carry is clear have identical opcodes, no optimization takes place.

 

Not only BHS = BCC, but also BLO = BCS.
