mdm isa reversing

It looks quite a lot like the "sensor controller" ISA but the details differ (more registers, different encoding, no pc-relative branches, fewer insns?).

disassembler

See analyze-asm.py. Needs a few tweaks to be usable as a standalone disassembler but it works.

documentation

instruction set (as of now):
    registers are 16-bit wide. notation is always "op src, dst".
    memory addressing is in 16-bit word units, never byte indexed.
    RAM/ROM and I/O buses are separate like in the 8080 or Z80.
    basically a babby's first 16bit machine one might find designed
    specifically for a uni course.

    alu reg, reg        alu=or/and/mov/add/sub/cmp
    alu imm, reg        imm is 5bit!

    btst imm, reg       bit test in reg. imm is a bit index
    bclr imm, reg       bit clear in reg

    shift reg, reg      shift=sl0(lsl)/sr0(lsr)/srx(asr)
    shift imm, reg      imm is 4bit

    lmd (reg), reg      load from ROM/RAM space
    lmd imm, reg        imm is 4bit? 7bit?
    lli imm, reg        load long immediate(?), imm is 10bit

    b<cc> abs           branch if conditioncode (eq/ne/mi/pl), abs is absolute addr
    jmp   abs
    jmp  (reg)
    jsr   abs
    loop  abs           loop instruction. r0 = loop counter, branch if r0 != 0

    rts                 return
    wait                wait for interrupt???

    input abs, reg      read from I/O space (absolute address)
    output reg, abs     write to I/O space
    outclr abs          set I/O reg to 0?
    outset abs          set I/O reg to 0xffff??
    outbclr imm, abs    clear bit <imm> of I/O reg <abs>
    outbset imm, abs    set bit of I/O reg

reg encoding: 0XXXX  = rX (X=0..15)
              10000  = pc (alu srcop only)
              others = ?? (alu srcop only)

instruction set encoding maybe:
    instructions are always 16 bits wide
