See the glossary at: http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.aeg0014g/ABCDEFGH.html AArch32 state The ARM 32-bit Execution state that uses 32-bit general purpose registers, and a 32-bit program counter (PC), stack pointer (SP), and link register (LR). AArch32 Execution state provides a choice of two instruction sets, A32 and T32. In implementations of versions of the ARM architecture before ARMv8, and in the ARM R and M architecture profiles, execution is always in AArch32 state. p.
