CSE12 Lab 4: Simple CSV File Analysis

Due at 11:59 PM on the marked due date

Objective

The objective of this lab is to learn about function calling, RISC-V protocols for the use of registers.

This lab takes as input a CSV (comma separated values) file (.csv extension) that is used for generating tabular data in spreadsheets. Specifically,for this assignment, you will NEED to assume this CSVfile was generated under

Windows (the reason will be explained shortly). Consider the data.csv file below as it appears when you open it in Excel as an example.

Figure 1 data.csv file in Excel

This file shows the stock returns from an investment portfolio over a year. The “A” column contains the stock name and the “B” column indicates the returns in USD (You can assume that there are no negative stock returns in any of our CSV data files).

You will run the file lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm file in RARS which takes data.csv as its input CSV file. Doing so will yield the following analysis, based on the calculations made by the assembly files that you will be submitting):

1. Find the total file size in bytes (excluding any metadata generated by your OS) (length_of_file.asm)

2. List the dollar amount of all the input records. (input_from_record.asm)

3. Provide the name of the stock that gives the maximum income. (maxIncome.asm)

4. Provide the name of the stock that gives the minimum income. (minIncome.asm)

5. Calculate the total income generated from all stocks

When you run via RARS lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm with the .asm files shown above completed by you, you will get the output console as shown below:

About the Windows CSV file format

To distinguish between each entry/row/record in the spreadsheet format of the CSV file, the following convention is adopted depending on the OS :

Windows - Lines end with a and a character Linux - Lines end with only a character

Macintosh (Mac OSX) - Lines end with only a character Macintosh (old) - Lines end with only a character

where is the carriage return (‘\r’) character and is the line feed/newline (‘\n’) character.

If you open the provided data.csv file in Notepad++ on Windows with “Show all Characters” enabled, then you should see the following text showing the placement of the carriage return and line feed characters. .

Figure 3 data.csv on Notepad++ on Windows

So, for example, if I were to express record 2 from data.csv as a string of characters in RARS, I would write: “Kramerica,0\r\n”. If you are using an OS that is NOT Windows, it is likely that data.csv would not open correctly due to the encoding differences. If you have a text editor like Notepad++ that allows you to see all characters, make sure that the “\r\n” appears for each record in the file as shown in Figure 3. This is the case for the data.csv that we include in the directory.

Another assumption that we will state at this point is that we expect that in each record, the name of the stock is followed by the “,” and then immediately by the stock price expressed as an unsigned integer in base 10. So, with record 2 as an example, we will never have a situation where it is written as “Kramerica, . . 0\r\n” where the 2 red dots indicate two blank spaces. This assumption makes the CSV file analysis by RARS easier to code.

Resources

Much like how a high-level program has a specific file extension (.c for C, .py for python) RARS based RISC-V programs have an .asm extension.

In the Lab4 folder in the course you will see 9 assembly files. They are meant to be read (and understood) in sequence and they will provide you with lotsof hints as to how to build your program:

1. add_function.asm – This program accepts two integers as user inputs and prints their addition result. The actual addition is done through calling a function, sum. Sum accepts two arguments in the a0, a1 registers and returns a0+a1 in a0 register

2. multiply_function.asm – This program accepts two integers as user inputs and prints their multiplication result. The actual multiplication is done through calling a function, multiply. Multiply accepts two arguments in the a0, a1 registers and returns a0*a1 in a0 register. This function in turn calls the function sum, described previously, to do a particular addition. Thus, multiply function is an example of a nested function call, a function which itself calls another function, sum in our case.

3. The lecture slides provide a lot of information about register calling and saving conventions. Studying the comments in add_function.asm, multiply_function.as alongside with the notes should be sufficient to create to allow you to complete this assignment.

4. lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm - This is the main testbench program you will run upon completion of all coding in Lab4 to ensure your Lab4 assignment works as expected. This file is initially provided such that if you run it as it is (with the other .asm files in the same directory), you will still get partially correctly generated output. This testbench will also run the the function allocate_file_record_pointers from the allocate_file_record_pointers.asm which will aid you in writing your program. DO NOT MODIFY THE TESTBENCH FILE.

5. allocate_file_record_pointers.asm - This .asm file contains a function that creates an array in memory of pointer pairs. These pointer pairs indicate 1) the location of the start of a string corresponding to the stock name and 2) the start of a location containing the stock price for each and every record/entry coming from the data.csv file. This function has been fully written out for you. DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE.

6. macros_rv32_rev#.asm - This file contains useful macros, mostly to doI/O, it uses and modifies a# registers, so be careful. Become familiar with these functions. They are your friends.

6. income_from_record.asm - This. asm file contains a function that you will write to convert the string data from the income of a record/entry in the spreadsheet and convert it into an integer. Example, convert the string “1234” into the actual integer 1234 in base 10.

7. income_from_record_ideas_asm - This file provides some ideas for implementing income_from_record.asm.

7. length_of_file.asm - This. asm file contains a function that you will write to find the total amount of data bytes in the csv file. Refer to Figure 2 for an example.

8. maxIncome.asm - This. asm file contains a function that you will write to determine the name of the stock that has the maximum income in the csv file. Refer to Figure 2 for an example.

9. minIncome.asm - This. asm file contains a function that you will write to determine the name of the stock that has the minimum income in the csv file. (Figure 2 fails to show the corresponding output. It’ll be added later)

10. totalIncome.asm - This. asm file contains a function that you will write to sum up all the stock incomes in the csv file. Refer to Figure 2 for an example.

Please download all these files and make sure to open them in the RARS Text editor only. Otherwise the comments and other important code sections may not be properly highlighted and it can be a hindrance to learning assembly language intuitively.

These files have enough comments in the source code to jump start your understanding of RISC-V assembly programming for Lab 4 if the lectures have not yet covered certain topics in assembly programming.

Beyond these three files, you should have all the required resources in the Lecture Slides themselves. The slides are very self-explanatory and it is encouraged you start reading them even if the instructor hasn’t started discussing them in lecture.

For the usage of macros (which are utilized heavily in this lab to generate ecalls), please also refer to the RARS documentation on macros and ecalls as well.

Please read the provided files carefully. You can learn a lot about assembler from reading these files. Note that using macros resembles calling functions. The macros have been written to make use of the a# registers, so don’t assume that any values in your a# registers remain valid after calling a macro.

Memory arrangement as defined in Lab4

The memory of RISC V is used as per the given requirements.

File Data Buffer

The data.csv file is treated as the default input file. It’s contents are store in the file buffer location 0xffff0000 (referred to as MMIO).

Figure 4 data segment window forMMIO after running completed Lab4 assignment.

The input is achieved when the provided fileRead macro found in lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm is executed. Your code does not need to do this.

For reference, from Figure 4, note where the first record in the given data.csv file, “Kruger Industrial Smoothing,365\r\n” is found. The location of the letter ‘K’(encoded in ASCII as byte 0x4b or 64 in base 10) is at 0xffff0000. The location of the character digit ‘3’, i.e. the start of the income,(encoded in ASCII as byte 0x33 or 51 in base 10) is at 0xffff001c. If you count the bytes in the string “Kruger Industrial Smoothing,365\r\n” with ‘K’ being the 0th character, then ‘3’is the 28th character (0x1c), so this makes sense.

File Record Pointers

We need a systematic way to reference the memory locations where the stock name and income from the file buffer at 0xffff0000. Remember that the stock names and stock incomes can be both of varying lengths of characters. Thus, we set aside the memory location 0x10040000 (heap) for a table containing the locations (addresses) of the first character appearing for each stock name and income respectively (i.e. one for the name, one for the number) of each record in the CSV file.

Figure 5 data segment window for heap after running completed Lab4 assignment.

This is achieved when the testbench (lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm) runs the provided function allocate_file_record_pointers with the arguments in a0 and a1 registers being the file size in bytes (119 in our given example from data.csv) and the starting address of file buffer (0x0ffff0000 in our given example from data.csv), respectively. The allocate_file_record_pointers function is provided in the allocate_file_record_pointers.asm file separately through the .include statement in lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm.

For reference, from Figure 5, note in our example data.csv the first record’s location of start of income name (0xffff0000) and income value(0xffff001c) are stored as words in consecutive heap memory locations 0x10040000 and 0x10040004 respectively. Likewise, the second record’s (i.e. “Kramerica,0\r\n”) location of start of income name (0xffff0021) and income value(0xffff002b) are stored as words in consecutive heap memory locations 0x10040008 and 0x1004000c respectively. And so on and so forth. It is left as a HIGHLY recommended exercise that the student verifies this pattern for the remaining records in the CSV file and how they are allocated in the memory locations as shown in Figure 5. As we see in Figure 5, the 10 non zero heap memory locations from 0x10040000 to 0x10040024 indicate there were originally 10/2 = 5 records in our data.csv file. This value (no. of records) is returned

Student coded functions

All student coded functions are to be written in the .asm files listed in the lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm file using the .include statement (excluding allocate_file_record_pointers.asm). The functions written MUST abide by the register saving conventions of RISC-V.

1. length_of_file(a1) - This function is to be written in length_of_file.asm. It accepts as argument in a1 register the buffer address holding file data and returns in a0 the length of the file data in bytes.

From our example involving data.csv, length_of_file(0xffff0000)=119

2. income_from_record(a0) - This function is to be written in income_from_record.asm. It accepts as argument in a0 register the pointer to start of numerical income in a record. It returns the income’s numerical value in a0.

From our example involving data.csv, income_from_record(0x10040004)=365. This is the income from the stock of Kruger Industrial Smoothing. income_from_record(0x1004000c)= 0. This is the income from the stock of Kramerica.

You may use the mul instruction if you feel your student code involves the multiplication operation.

3. totalIncome(a0,a1) - This function is to be written in totalIncome.asm. a0 contains the file record pointer array location (0x10040000 in our example) But your code MUST handle any address value. a1 contains the number of records in the CSV file. a0 then returns the total income (add up all the record incomes).

From our initial example data.csv, the call to totalIncome(0x10040000, 5) will return 1007

4. maxIncome(a0,a1) - This function is to be written in maxIncome.asm. a0 contains the file record pointer array location (0x10040000 in our example) But your code MUST handle any address value. a1 contains the number of records in the CSV file. a0 then returns the heap memory pointer to the actual location of the record stock name in the file buffer.

From our example involving data.csv, maxIncome(0x10040000, 5)= 0x10040010. Observe from Figure 5 that this address value points to the location of the stock name “Vandelay Industries”, which is valued at the maximum value of $500, and proving that even in times of market uncertainty , the latex polymer industry is booming as ever.

5. minIncome(a0,a1) - This function is to be written in minIncome.asm. a0 contains the file record pointer array location (0x10040000 in our example) But your code MUST handle any address value. a1 contains the number of records in the CSV file. a0 then returns the heap memory pointer to the actual location of the record stock name in the file buffer.

From our example involving data.csv, maxIncome(0x10040000, 5)= 0x10040008. Observe from Figure 5 that this address value points to the location of the stock name “Kramerica”, which is valued at the minimum value of $0,

proving once and for all, a sales pitch about a “coffee table book about coffee tables” is an absolutely terrible idea.

To keep the code simple for both maxIncome and minIncome functions, you may assume that no two entries in the CSVfile will have the same income field value.

Test Cases

Your Lab4 Google Drive folder called TestCases contains more test data files: data1.csv, data2.csv and data3.csv, and data0.csv. To test with these you have to copy any one of them to data.csv in your working directory. The initial data.csv you use by default is the same as TestCases/data0.csv. It corresponds to the file described in this write-up.

Automation

Note that our grading script. is automated, so it is imperative that your program’s output matches the specification exactly. The output that deviates from the spec will end up with a poor score.

Files to be submitted to Gradescope

length_of_file.asm

income_from_record.asm maxIncome.asm

minIncome.asm totalIncome.asm

You will NOT be editing the following files, and you will NOT BE UPLOADING THEM: lab4 testbench rv32 rev#.asm

allocate_file_record_pointers.asm macros rv32 rev#.asm

DO NOT UPLOAD ANY DATA FILES. We use our own data files to test your program.

ORDER TO IMPLEMENT FUNCTIONS

Make sure you have RARS is set up to work on 32-bit mode or programs may not work. This is the default unless you have changed it.

IMPORTANT: START OUT BY SUBMITTING THE FILES AS THEY ARE WITHOUT

MODIFICATION. GRADESCOPE WILL GIVE YOU 20 POINTS AS IS GIVEN THAT THE PROGRAM ASSEMBLES PROPERLY WITHOUT MODIFICATION. DO THIS AS SOON AS

POSSIBLE!! YOU MUST SUBMIT ALL THE NEEDED FILES AS DESCRIBED ABOVE OR THE PROGRAM WONT ASSEMBLE PROPERLY.

Make sure you read the code in the lab4_testbench_rv32_rev#.asm, and the file macros_rv32_rev#.asm you will get many ideas from reading these.

Submit using Gradebook. Do it as many times as you want, there is no penalty for multiple submissions. If your grade gets worse you can go back to your

best prior grade.

After you submit the files without any edits, you must get the length_of_file function working next in order to make any further progress. Using the default data.csv you should get a length of 119.

After you get length_of_file working, you must get the income_from_record function working. Double check that the output displayed matches the input. income_from_record_ideas_asm will give you some coding ideas that will help. Once income_from_record works, get totalIncome, and maxIncome and minIncome functions working in that order. The last two are very similar.

If you get all that working go for the extra credit described next.

This is a medium difficulty lab. So start early and work with the TA’s and tutors to help you complete it. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE.

POTENTIAL SIZABLE EXTRA CREDIT

This is a great opportunity for you to learn assembly language, and become somewhat of a near expert in RISC-V

programming, while you work on getting extra credit. With continuous regrading and some significant effort, you

should be able to get a perfect score in this lab. If you do,I will be giving you the opportunity to get some extra credit, and learn more while you are at it.

The ideas is that with some effort if you get 100 points on this lab, you can work on optimizing it, too. In particular

you can use what you have learned about caller and callee saving conventions when using nested functions (which this lab does do). My most optimized implementation of this lab executed running a total of 2228 instructions.

You can learn how many instructions you executed by accessing the Tools menu then the Instruction Statistics

function, connecting it to your program to it and running it. I put in a fair effort my at using simple tricks to optimize the code, also following the guidelines for saving registers. The register spilling optimizations are described in the

lecture notes. Sooo, if you can match 2350 and less than 430 memory cycles or (perhaps even beat my number) you will get an extra 20 percent extra credit for Lab4 to help you improve your grade. Think of it. This is an opportunity to beat your teacher at his game. Not only will you get extra credit but great bragging rights :) Worst case, even if you don’t get the extra credit, you may have fun trying, and learn a thing or two. However, you have to complete the assignment first to perfection before you can try this.

Instruction Statistics

SOME TIPS

We will be discussing how to debug your code in class along with numerous tricks and techniques to make your life

easier. You can use some of the macros on your code to print out intermediate results if you feel you need to. You can also put breakpoints in your code and use the powerful built-in debugger.

A Note About Academic Integrity

This is the lab assignment where many students get flagged for cheating. Please review the pamphlet on Academic Dishonesty make sure you understand the differentce between acceptable and unacceptable collaboration.

You can get advice and help learning how to do this, but you must do this assignment all by yourself. Write comments that shows you know what you are doing! COPYING CODE FROM SOMEONE ELSE OR THE INTERNET IS NOT ALLOWED.

Grading Rubric (100 points total + 20% extra credit)

The following rubric applies provided you have fulfilled all criteria in Minimum Submission Requirements. Failing any criteria listed in that section would result in an automatic grade of zero which cannot be eligible for applying for a regrade request.
