Description
Architecture-specific information for PowerPC with 64-bit word size.
'
PowerPC (with the backronym Performance Optimization With Enhanced RISC – Performance Computing, sometimes abbreviated as PPC) is a reduced instruction set computer (RISC) instruction set architecture (ISA) created by the 1991 Apple–IBM–Motorola alliance, known as AIM. PowerPC, as an evolving instruction set, has been named Power ISA since 2006, while the old name lives on as a trademark for some implementations of Power Architecture–based processors.
PowerPC was the cornerstone of AIM's PReP and Common Hardware Reference Platform (CHRP) initiatives in the 1990s. Originally intended for personal computers, the architecture is well known for being used by Apple's Power Macintosh, PowerBook, iMac, iBook, eMac, Mac Mini, and Xserve lines from 1994 until 2006, when Apple migrated to Intel's x86. It has since become a niche in personal computers, but remains popular for embedded and high-performance processors. Its use in the 7th generation of video game consoles and embedded applications provide an array of uses, including satellites, and the Curiosity and Perseverance rovers on Mars. In addition, PowerPC CPUs are still used in AmigaOne and third party AmigaOS 4 personal computers.
PowerPC is largely based on the earlier IBM POWER architecture, and retains a high level of compatibility with it; the architectures have remained close enough that the same programs and operating systems will run on both if some care is taken in preparation; newer chips in the Power series use the Power ISA.

Member Function Documentation
◆ registerDictionary()
|
overridevirtual |
Property: Register dictionary.
The register dictionary defines a mapping between register names and register descriptors (RegisterDescriptor), and thus how the registers map into hardware.
Since dictionaries are generally not modified, it is permissible for this function to return the same dictionary every time it's called. The dictionary can be constructed on the first call.
Thread safety: Thread safe.
Implements Rose::BinaryAnalysis::Architecture::Base.
◆ matchesHeader()
|
overridevirtual |
Tests whether this architecture matches a file header.
Returns true if this architecture matches the specified file header, and false otherwise.
The default implementation always returns false.
