Introducing 2017's extensions to the Arm Architecturearm Blogs - Matthew Gretton-Dann, ArmNov. 03, 2017 |
The Arm Architecture is continually evolving, and this blog gives a high-level overview of some of the changes made in Armv8.4-A*. We develop these changes by listening to the Arm Ecosystem and working with them to provide new functionality that benefits everyone. These are incremental changes to the architecture and do not introduce any significant new features. Previous incremental versions of the architecture have been introduced for v8.3-A, v8.2-A, and v8.1-A.
