So while the machine operated 16 bits at a time the programmer had a full 32 bit view (and eventually a 32 bit virtual address space) even though the chip only supported 24 bits of address and operated 16 bits of data at a time. They're so even thought they were 16 bit internally. I'd never think of either chop as a 16 bit machine as for 16/32 bit argument - the hacked C compiler that Glasser and I cobbled together in 1979 at Tektronix used 16 bit. IIRC the rts guys (jack test et al) used 32 bits at day one even though the natural int was 16 bits. there were advantages to both solutions and Jeff Mogul and i used argue about. looking back on the 68000 in hind sight MIT got it right and while it worked mildly faster a 16 bit int was a bad idea Clem PS but I agree. SunOS never ran on a pure 16 not machine. on fact they started with compiler derived from Test et al. PPS. we relived this whole argument with 64 bits and it was interesting that we generally came to think LP64 made more sense for chips like Alpha On Oct 18, 2012, at 6:40 PM, Greg 'groggy' Lehey <grog at lemis.com> wrote: > On Thursday, 18 October 2012 at 23:51:20 +0100, Sevan / Venture37 wrote: >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rk8aZv0JJuk&feature=player_detailpage#t=3493s >> >> "SunOS has never run on a 16bit machine" >> >> My response was M68000 & 386 but his counter response was they both >> supported 32bit addressing. > > They're also 32 bit internally.

It depends whether you are talking implementation or architecture. The M68000 architecture was basically 32 bits (Motorola initially skimped on the multiply & divide instructions and referred to it as a "16-/32-bit architecture"), though the initial implementation used a 16-bit ALU. To go back further, the IBM System/360 was a 32-bit architecture but the low-end implementation (360/20) only had 8-bit wide memory and an 8-bit wide ALU and there was also a 16-bit wide implementation. >the external logic (ie pins) supported 24 bits of address. moto >fortunately passed all 32 bits along on the first chip and onto >storage (thank you Les & Nick) so when later versions had a full 32 >bit shifter everything just worked. They clearly defined that the programmer's view was a 32-bit address but some implementations didn't map all the address bits onto pins. Note that this approach of only physically implementing a subset of the address bus has continued into the 64-bit chips - most chips only have 36-40 physical address bits and 40-48 logical address bits. (Though one big difference is that the unimplemented address bits are validated instead of ignored). >PPS. we relived this whole argument with 64 bits and it was >interesting that we generally came to think LP64 made more sense for >chips like Alpha I think a lot of this was also driven by the large amount of software that was ILP32. Converting int from 32- to 64-bits would add a lot of pain for very little benefit. Just making code work with LP64 was painful enough.

The 8088 and 68008 were basically 8086/68000 chips with reworked bus interface logic so that the external data bus was only 8-bit (and the 68008 also cut the address bus from 24- to 20-bits). Other than being slower, they appeared the same as their 16-bit cousins. They were aimed at applications where price was more important than performance: Using the 8088 meant that IBM only needed 8 64Kx1 DRAM chips and the 68008 used a much smaller and cheaper 40-pin DIP instead of the 64-pin DIP needed for the 68000. -- Peter Jeremy -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
