+### Accessing system registers
+Reading from system registers:
+```armasm
+mrs x0, vbar_el1 // move vbar_el1 into x0
+```
+
+Writing to system registers:
+```armasm
+msr vbar_el1, x0 // move x0 into vbar_el1
+```
+
+### Control Flow
+```armasm
+b <offset> // relative forward/back branch
+br <Xn> // absolute branch to address in register Xn
+
+// branch & link, store return address in X30 (LR)
+bl <offset> // relative forward/back branch
+blr <Xn> // absolute branch to address in register Xn
+
+ret {Xn} // return to address in X30, or Xn if supplied
+```
