Table 34. Branch Ranges - ST STM32H7 Series Programming Manual

PM0214
B cond label is the only conditional instruction that can be either inside or outside an IT
block. All other branch instructions must be conditional inside an IT block, and must be
unconditional outside the IT block, see
Table 34
B label
Bcond label (outside IT block)
Bcond label (inside IT block)
BL{cond} label
BX{cond} Rm
BLX{cond} Rm
You might have to use the .W suffix to get the maximum branch range. See
selection on page
Restrictions
The restrictions are:
•
Do not use PC in the BLX instruction
•
For BX and BLX, bit[0] of Rm must be 1 for correct execution but a branch occurs to the
target address created by changing bit[0] to 0
•
When any of these instructions is inside an IT block, it must be the last instruction of the
IT block.
Bcond is the only conditional instruction that is not required to be inside an IT block.
However, it has a longer branch range when it is inside an IT block.
Condition flags
These instructions do not change the flags.
