A Special STAT Instruction

Overview

A special version of the STAT instruction has been developed to support
Momentum M1 CPUs. The STAT instruction accesses a specified number of words
in a status table in the CPU’s system memory. Here vital diagnostic information
regarding the health of the CPU and the I/OBus I/O under its control is posted.

From the STAT instruction, you can copy some or all of the status words into a
block of registers or a block of contiguous discrete references.

This section describes the STAT instruction.

Avoid Discretes

We recommend that you do not use discretes in the STAT destination node
because of the excessive number required to contain status information.

Specify Length

The copy to the STAT block always begins with the first word in the table up to the
last word of interest to you. For example, if the status table is 20 words long and
you are interested only in the statistics provided in word 11, you need to copy only
words 1...11 by specifying a

length of 11 in the STAT instruction.

Block

The STAT block includes a top node (for destination) and a bottom node (for
length). The STAT block is represented in the following illustration.
