Problem A . On an ARM processor, determine the values of four condition flags in APSR after an arithmetic operation is executed in each case

Problem A. On an ARM processor, determine the values of four condition flags in APSR after an arithmetic operation is executed in
each case (assuming that S-bit is set). The addition or subtraction must be performed in HEX or BIN and can NOT be performed in
DEC since those numbers represent signed OR unsigned values (These instructions are NOT executed one after the other one; instead,
each instruction starts with the initial conditions given in the statement.)
(a)0x92394103+0xA04230C8
(b)0x123456780xEDCBA988(optional,10 extra bonus points)
Problem B. In each of the following MOV or MVN instruction, identify whether the use of the immediate value is VALID or INVALID.
(a) MOV R1, #0xD017
(b) MOVW R1, #0xE689
(c) MOV R1, #0xAC5
(d) MVN R1, #0xAC5
(e) MVN R1, #996
(f) MVN R1, #0x9B000000
(g) MOV R1, #0xF300F300
(h) MOV R1, #0x1357CDEF
Problem C: On an ARM processor, assuming that [N-bit]=0,[Z-bit]=0,[C-bit]=1,[V-bit]=1, predict whether each of the following
branch instruction is going to make the flow of control branch to the instruction labeled by NEXT (i.e., YES or NO).(These instructions
are NOT executed one after the other one; instead, each instruction starts with the initial conditions given in the statement.)
(a) BLS NEXT
(b) BNE NEXT
(c) BLE NEXT
(d) BVC NEXT
Problem D. On an ARMv7-M or ARMv8-M processor, assuming that [R1]=0x010E0C2D,[R2]=0xFDB97531,[R3]=0x0000000C,
[N-bit]=1,[Z-bit]=0,[C-bit]=0,[V-bit]=1, predict the 32-bit [R1],[N-bit],[Z-bit], and [C-bit] after an ARM instruction is executed
in EACH case. (These instructions are NOT executed one after the other; instead, each instruction starts with the initial conditions given
in the statement.)
(a) MOVS R1, #0xFAB
(b) MVNS R1, #0x2FC
(c) MVNS R1, R2, LSL R3
(d) LSRS R1, R2, R3
(e) MVNS R1, R2
