Create an ARMv8 assembly language program that implements the following algorithm:
#define SIZE 50
int main()
{
int v[SIZE], i, j, temp;
/* Initialize array to random positive integers, mod 256 */
for (i = 0; i < SIZE; i++) {
v[i] = rand() & 0xFF;
printf(“v[%d]: %d
”, i, v[i]);
}
/* Sort the array using an insertion sort */
for (i = 1; i < SIZE; i++) { temp = v[i]; for (j = i; j > 0 && temp < v[j-1]; j–) {
v[j] = v[j-1];
}
v[j] = temp;
}
/* Print out the sorted array */
printf(“
Sorted array:
”);
for (i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
printf(“v[%d]: %d
”, i, v[i]);
return 0;
}Create space on the stack to store all local variables, using the techniques described in lectures.
Use m4 macros or assembler equates for all stack variable offsets. Optimize your code so that it
uses as few instructions as possible. Be sure, however, that you always read or write memory when
using or assigning to the local variables. Name the program assign3.asm.Also run the program in gdb, first displaying the contents of the array before sorting, and then
displaying it again once the sort is complete (use the x command to examine memory). You should
show that the algorithm is working as expected. Capture the gdb session using the script UNIX
command, and name the output file script.txt.Make sure your code is readable and fully documented, including identifying information at the
top of each file. You must comment each line of assembly code. Your code should also be well
designed: make sure it is well organized, clear, and concise.
2New Skills Needed for this Assignment:
• Use of the stack to store local variables.
• Addressing stack variables.
• Use of m4 macros or assembler equates for stack variable offsets.
• Storing and addressing one-dimensional arrays on the stack.Submit the following:
Your assembly source code files for the program, and your script output file. Use the Assignment
3 Dropbox Folder in D2L to submit electronically. The TA will assemble and run your program to
test it. Be sure to name your program and script file as described above.
