; This program, when run on the DSLMU Microcontroller Board, flashes the
; LEDs on and off.  A high-level (pseudo-code) version of the program is:
;
;     program main
;
;     const
;       Value1   = 0b11111111   /* Value to turn LEDs on */
;       Value2   = 0b00000000   /* Value to turn LEDs off */
;
;     address
;       LED_port = 0x10000000   /* Address of the eight LEDs */
;
;     do {
;         LED_port := Value1
;         LED_port := Value2
;     } forever
;
; where Value1 is the value to turn ON all of the LEDs and Value2 is the
; value to turn OFF all of the LEDs.


; -----------------------------------------------------------------------
; Constant values used in this program

	.equ	LED_port,	0x10000000	; Location of LED port

	.equ	Value1,		0b11111111	; Value to turn LEDs on
	.equ	Value2,		0b00000000	; Value to turn LEDs off

; Assembly-language preamble

	.text				; Executable code follows

_start:	.global	_start			; "_start" is required by the linker
	.global	main			; "main" is our main program

	b	main

; -----------------------------------------------------------------------
; Start of the main program

main:					; Entry to the function "main"

	; Although "main" is technically a function, this particular
	; function has an infinite loop and so never returns to its caller.

	mov	r4, #LED_port		; Load the address of the LED port
					; (ie, the value of the constant
					; LED_port) into register R4

main_loop:				; Start of the infinite loop

	; Turn the LEDs on

	mov	r5, #Value1		; Load the value Value1 into R5
	strb	r5, [r4]		; and store this value (a byte) to
					; the address in R4 (the LED port)

	; Turn the LEDs off

	mov	r5, #Value2		; Load the value Value2 into R5
	strb	r5, [r4]		; and store this value (a byte)

	b	main_loop		; Branch back to main_loop, ie, run
					; forever
