PRFH (scalar plus immediate)

Contiguous prefetch halfwords (immediate index)

This instruction prefetches contiguous halfword elements from the memory address generated by a 64-bit scalar base and immediate index in the range -32 to 31 that is multiplied by the vector's in-memory size, irrespective of predication, and added to the base address.

The <prfop> operand specifies the prefetch hint as follows:

• Access type:
  • PLD for prefetch for load.
  • PST for prefetch for store.
• Target cache level:
  • L1 for Level 1 cache.
  • L2 for Level 2 cache.
  • L3 for Level 3 cache.
• Policy:
  • KEEP for retained or temporal prefetch, allocated in the cache normally.
  • STRM for streaming or non-temporal prefetch, for data that is used only once.
