4.5.2
Trap instruction exception handling is carried out when a trap instruction (TRAPA) is executed.
The CPU then:
1. Saves the status register by pushing register contents onto the stack.
2. Pushes the program counter value onto the stack. The PC value saved is the start address of the
3. Reads the exception handling routine start address from the vector table corresponding to the
next instruction after the TRAPA instruction.
vector number specified in the TRAPA instruction, branches to that address, and starts
program execution. The branch is not a delayed branch.
