2948.0. "68020 Stack frame question" by KYOA::MIANO (Dallas is gone...Buckey is next.) Fri Sep 22 1989 15:35

Could someone who has access to an MC68020 User's Manual tell
me what the format of the Special Status Word/Register is.  
This is the word located at 10(SP) on the bus error stack frame.
I have  been unable to find a copy and Prentice-Hall says it's no longer
available.  I have a copy of the MC68030 manual and I've listed its
format below.  I need to know what the differences are, if any. 

Also I would like to know if the format for the word at 8(SP) on the
same stack frame is listed.

Thanks

John

    John,
    
        	The Special Status Word format is exactly as you describe in
    .0. Sorry, I couldn't find the format for word at offset $08. It's
    listed as an Internal Register, and it mentions that it contains
     registers not visible to users.
