Abstract
A data processing system utilizes non-volatile storage to store constant values. An instruction decoder decodes program instructions to generate control signals to control processing circuitry to perform processing operations which may include processing operations corresponding to constant-using program instructions. Such constant-using program instructions may include one or more operation specifying fields and one or more argument specifying fields which control the processing circuitry to generate an output value equal to that given by reading one or more constant values from the non-volatile storage, optionally modifying such a value, and then performing the processing operation upon the value, or the modified value, to generate an output value.
