STTP (SIMD&FP)

Store unprivileged pair of SIMD&FP registers

This instruction stores a pair of SIMD&FP registers to memory. The address used for the store is calculated from a base register value and an immediate offset.

Depending on the settings in the CPACR_EL1, CPTR_EL2, and CPTR_EL3 registers, and the current Security state and Exception level, an attempt to execute the instruction might be trapped.

Explicit Memory effects produced by the instruction behave as if the instruction was executed at EL0 if the Effective value of PSTATE.UAO is 0 and either:

Otherwise, the Explicit Memory effects operate with the restrictions determined by the Exception level at which the instruction is executed.

It has encodings from 3 classes: Post-index , Pre-index and Signed offset

Assembler Symbols

<Qt1>

Is the 128-bit name of the first SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt" field.

<Qt2>

Is the 128-bit name of the second SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt2" field.

<Xn|SP>

Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose base register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field.

<imm>

For the "Post-index" and "Pre-index" variants: is the signed immediate byte offset, a multiple of 16 in the range -1024 to 1008, encoded in the "imm7" field as <imm>/16.

For the "Signed offset" variant: is the optional signed immediate byte offset, a multiple of 16 in the range -1024 to 1008, defaulting to 0 and encoded in the "imm7" field as <imm>/16.

Operation

AArch64_CheckFPEnabled(); var address : bits(64); let dbytes : integer{} = datasize DIV 8; let privileged : boolean = AArch64_IsUnprivAccessPriv(); let ispair : boolean = TRUE; let accdesc : AccessDescriptor = CreateAccDescASIMD(MemOp_STORE, nontemporal, tagchecked, privileged, ispair); if n == 31 then CheckSPAlignment(); address = SP{64}(); else address = X{64}(n); end; if !postindex then address = AddressAdd(address, offset, accdesc); end; var data : bits(2*datasize); if BigEndian(accdesc.acctype) then data = V{datasize}(t) :: V{datasize}(t2); else data = V{datasize}(t2) :: V{datasize}(t); end; Mem{2*datasize}(address, accdesc) = data; if wback then if postindex then address = AddressAdd(address, offset, accdesc); end; if n == 31 then SP{64}() = address; else X{64}(n) = address; end; end;
