# Armv8-A architecture support
|
|
|
|
The Armv8-A architecture introduces the ability to use 64-bit and 32-bit
|
|
Execution states, known as AArch64 and AArch32 respectively. The AArch64
|
|
Execution state supports the A64 instruction set. It holds addresses in 64-bit
|
|
registers and allows instructions in the base instruction set to use 64-bit
|
|
registers for their processing.
|
|
|
|
The AArch32 Execution state is a 32-bit Execution state that preserves
|
|
backwards compatibility with the Armv7-A architecture, enhancing that profile
|
|
so that it can support some features included in the AArch64 state. It supports
|
|
the T32 and A32 instruction sets. Follow the

for more information.

## ARM_AARCH64_SRE port
|
|
|
|
This port adds support for Armv8-A architecture AArch64 execution state.
|
|
This port is generic and can be used as a starting point for Armv8-A
|
|
application processors.
