Current computer architectures --- ARM, MIPS, PowerPC, SPARC, x86 --- have evolved from a 32-bit architecture to a 64-bit one. Computer architects often consider whether it could be possible to eliminate hardware support for a subset of the instruction set as to reduce hardware complexity, which could improve performance, reduce power usage and accelerate processor development. This paper considers the scenario where we want to eliminate 32-bit hardware support from the ARMv8 architecture.
