Foundations of RISC-V Assembly Programming (LFD117x)

This course discusses the RISC-V GNU toolchain, the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), pseudo instructions and Assembly directives, the application programming interface, interfacing with C-libraries, disassemblies, and much more. Basic concepts like loops, conditionals, and functions are taught by developing Assembly programs running in a RISC-V Linux environment.

This course is designed for software developers who want to understand what instructions a RISC-V microprocessor finally executes for any software running on it. While this is an introductory course, developers should have a basic understanding of programming concepts and methodologies in order to benefit from the course material.
