ARMv7-M (Cortex-M3, M7) exception entry behavior

When pushing context to the stack, the hardware saves eight 32-bits words, comprising xPSR, Return Address, LR (R14), R12, R3, R2, R1 and R0.

Stack frame size = 8 x 32-bits = 32 bytes = 0x20 bytes

SP_main = SP_main - frame size;
frameptr = SP_main;

MemA[frameptr,4] = R[0];
MemA[frameptr+0x4,4] = R[1];
MemA[frameptr+0x8,4] = R[2];
MemA[frameptr+0xC,4] = R[3];
MemA[frameptr+0x10,4] = R[12];
MemA[frameptr+0x14,4] = LR;
MemA[frameptr+0x18,4] = ReturnAddress; /* Address of this instruction or next instruction depending on exception type and attribute */
MemA[frameptr+0x1C,4] = (XPSR<31:10>:frameptralign:XPSR<8:0>);
