Store register to memory
========================
Document conventions
--------------------
Notation: ``Rt, Rn`` denote ARM registers R0-R7 except where stated. ``immN`` represents an immediate
value having a width of N bits hence ``imm5`` is constrained to the range 0-31. ``[Rn + imm5]`` is the
contents of the memory address obtained by adding Rn and the offset ``imm5``. Offsets are measured in
bytes. These instructions do not affect the condition flags.
Register Store
--------------
* str(Rt, [Rn, imm7]) ``[Rn + imm7] = Rt`` Store a 32 bit word
* strb(Rt, [Rn, imm5]) ``[Rn + imm5] = Rt`` Store a byte (b0-b7)
* strh(Rt, [Rn, imm6]) ``[Rn + imm6] = Rt`` Store a 16 bit half word (b0-b15)
The specified immediate offsets are measured in bytes. Hence in the case of ``str`` the 7 bit value
enables 32 bit word aligned values to be accessed with a maximum offset of 31 words. In the case of ``strh`` the
6 bit value enables 16 bit half-word aligned values to be accessed with a maximum offset of 31 half-words.
