code is ran all over again after exit

[bsuvonov]

Here is the code that works fine:

main:
    addi x9, x0, 30    # size = 30, change this for demo
    add x10, x0, x18   # x10 = 0 + x18, x18 is tempArray[0]
    jal x1, assign
    jal x0, exit
assign:
    # x10 holds the base address where the array should be stored
    addi x5, x0, 31
    sw x5, 0(x10)
    addi x5, x0, 7
    sw x5, 4(x10)
    addi x5, x0, 16
    sw x5, 8(x10)
    jalr x0, x1(0)
 exit: 
     li a7, 93     # Load the syscall number for exit into a7
     li a0, 0      # Load the exit status into a0 (0 typically means success)
     ecall

If you store a few more integers in memory in assign function, then ripes doesnt stop running the code. Once exit is reached, it starts from top of the code again.

Here is the code that runs infinitely:

main:
    addi x9, x0, 30    # size = 30, change this for demo
    add x10, x0, x18   # x10 = 0 + x18, x18 is tempArray[0]
    jal x1, assign
    jal x0, exit
assign:
    # x10 holds the base address where the array should be stored
    addi x5, x0, 31
    sw x5, 0(x10)
    addi x5, x0, 7
    sw x5, 4(x10)
    addi x5, x0, 16
    sw x5, 8(x10)
    addi x5, x0, 4
    sw x5, 12(x10)
    jalr x0, x1(0)
 exit: 
     li a7, 93     # Load the syscall number for exit into a7
     li a0, 0      # Load the exit status into a0 (0 typically means success)
     ecall

You can store more variables in the same way and issue still insists.
