…except the official Intel manuals which are quite good but also hard to read). Nevertheless, there are some on ARM which I can recommend, namely: ARM System Developer's Guide by Sloss, Symes and Wright. ARM Assembly Language by Hohl. ARM SoC Architecture by Furber. IDA Pro is the industry standard for reverse engineering but it also is expensive (like USD $2k). There is a free version but it doesn't offer 64bit, so not…

But you should check out Prof. Robert Plantz's book Introduction to Computer Organization: ARM Assembly Language Using the Raspberry Pi http://bob.cs.sonoma.edu/IntroCompOrg-RPi/intro-co-rpi.html

Despite its age, ARM System-on-Chip Architecture (Steve Furber) is still a good introduction to the processor and assembly (I'm re-reading it at the moment). ARM Assembly Language - an Introduction (J.R. Gibson) is worth reading if you want to learn ARM assembly. The materials page for COMP22712 also has some interesting resources, including the lab manuals and a small ARM assembler…

I never understood this at the time, and largely blame that on a popular ARM Assembly Language book I had that said that LDM/STM were just convenience instructions, essentially syntactic sugar. They most certainly were not. With the right alignment and using enough registers you could get 2-3x…
