ORN (predicates)

Bitwise inclusive OR inverted predicate

This instruction performs a bitwise inclusive OR between the active elements of the first source predicate and the inverted corresponding elements of the second source predicate, and places the results in the corresponding elements of the destination predicate. Inactive elements in the destination predicate register are set to zero. This instruction does not set the condition flags.

Encoding

ORN <Pd>.B, <Pg>/Z, <Pn>.B, <Pm>.B

Decode for this encoding

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SVE) && !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME) then EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF); end; let esize : integer{} = 8; let g : integer = UInt(Pg); let n : integer = UInt(Pn); let m : integer = UInt(Pm); let d : integer = UInt(Pd); let setflags : boolean = FALSE;

Assembler Symbols

<Pd>

Is the name of the destination scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pd" field.

<Pg>

Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pg" field.

<Pn>

Is the name of the first source scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pn" field.

<Pm>

Is the name of the second source scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pm" field.

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); let VL : integer{} = CurrentVL(); let PL : integer{} = VL DIV 8; let elements : integer = VL DIV esize; let mask : bits(PL) = P{}(g); let operand1 : bits(PL) = P{}(n); let operand2 : bits(PL) = P{}(m); var result : bits(PL); let psize : integer{} = esize DIV 8; for e = 0 to elements-1 do let element1 : bit = PredicateElement{PL}(operand1, e, esize); let element2 : bit = PredicateElement{PL}(operand2, e, esize); if ActivePredicateElement{PL}(mask, e, esize) then result[e*:psize] = ZeroExtend{psize}(element1 OR (NOT element2)); else result[e*:psize] = ZeroExtend{psize}('0'); end; end; if setflags then PSTATE.[N,Z,C,V] = PredTest{PL}(mask, result, esize); end; P{PL}(d) = result;
