Here's a concrete example on S/360.
L R,100
STH R,200
That does a four byte load of location 100 into a register, and then a
two byte halfword store into 200. The load gets bytes 100 through 103
with 100 going into the high byte of the register. The store puts its
values into bytes 200 and 201. Since it's the low half of the
register,
the new contents of 200 and 201 are the old contents of 102 and 103.
So using the same register name to address a halfword gives you the low half of the register, not the high half?
Whereas using the same memory address to address a halfword gives you the
high half of the word at that location, not the low half?
Concrete example::
say location 100:103 contain 0xDEADBEAF
LD R,100
R contains 0xDEADBEAF
STH R,200
Location 200:201 contain 0XBEAF
Whereas::
LH R,100
R contains 0xDEAD
And nobody who understands BE would even question this functionality.
