MVN

Bitwise NOT

This instruction writes the bitwise inverse of a register value to the destination register.

This is an alias of ORN (shifted register). This means:

313029282726252423222120191817161514131211109876543210

opcNRn

Encoding for the 32-bit variant

Applies when (sf == 0)

MVN <Wd>, <Wm>{, <shift> #<amount>}

is equivalent to

ORN <Wd>, WZR, <Wm>{, <shift> #<amount>}

and is always the preferred disassembly.

Encoding for the 64-bit variant

Applies when (sf == 1)

MVN <Xd>, <Xm>{, <shift> #<amount>}

is equivalent to

ORN <Xd>, XZR, <Xm>{, <shift> #<amount>}

and is always the preferred disassembly.

Assembler Symbols

<Wd>

Is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Wm>

Is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose source register, encoded in the "Rm" field.

<shift>

Is the optional shift to be applied to the final source, defaulting to LSL and encoded in shift:

shift <shift>
00 LSL
01 LSR
10 ASR
11 ROR
<amount>

For the "32-bit" variant: is the shift amount, in the range 0 to 31, defaulting to 0 and encoded in the "imm6" field.

For the "64-bit" variant: is the shift amount, in the range 0 to 63, defaulting to 0 and encoded in the "imm6" field.

<Xd>

Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Xm>

Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose source register, encoded in the "Rm" field.
