Assembly Language for the Cortex-M3 ARM

Can someone point to a good resource for assembly language programming and integration with the Keil RealView C compiler? Presently, I'm going through the ARM7 manuals and the C compiler listings - not sure if this is a good approach! Has Luminary Micro published any documentation in this regard like Atmel, Intel, Freescale, ST, TI etc?

Sincerely,
Samir

Re:Assembly Language for the Cortex-M3 ARM

A bit of clarification. The authoritative reference is of course the Cortex-M3 technical ref at ARM's website, but it does not make for easy reading. I'm looking for a reference that explains ARM Thumb-2 instructions and the programming model in an easy to follow way. Considering that ARM is the dominant 32-bit processor core which is targeting users of 8/ 16-bit simpler processors, such references should exist, though I can't seem to locate them.

Another doubt - Does Keil RealView Assembler support full Thumb-2 or just 16-bit Thumb subset of the Cortex-M3 instruction set?

Sincerely,
Samir.

Re:Assembly Language for the Cortex-M3 ARM

1.- ARM manuals are the only reference so far.
2.- Realview fully support THUMB2 code
