DUP (immediate)

Broadcast signed immediate to vector elements (unpredicated)

Unconditionally broadcast the signed integer immediate into each element of the destination vector. This instruction is unpredicated.

The immediate operand is a signed value in the range -128 to +127, and for element widths of 16 bits or higher it may also be a signed multiple of 256 in the range -32768 to +32512 (excluding 0).

The immediate is encoded in 8 bits with an optional left shift by 8. The preferred disassembly when the shift option is specified is "#<simm8>, LSL #8". However an assembler and disassembler may also allow use of the shifted 16-bit value unless the immediate is 0 and the shift amount is 8, which must be unambiguously described as "#0, LSL #8".

This instruction is used by the alias MOV (immediate, unpredicated).

This instruction is used by the pseudo-instruction FMOV (zero, unpredicated).

DUP <Zd>.<T>, #<imm>{, <shift>}

if !HaveSVE() && !HaveSME() then UNDEFINED; if size:sh == '001' then UNDEFINED; constant integer esize = 8 << UInt(size); integer d = UInt(Zd); integer imm = SInt(imm8); if sh == '1' then imm = imm << 8;

Assembler Symbols

<Zd>

Is the name of the destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zd" field.

<T>

Is the size specifier, encoded in size:

size <T>
00 B
01 H
10 S
11 D
<imm>

Is a signed immediate in the range -128 to 127, encoded in the "imm8" field.

<shift>

Is the optional left shift to apply to the immediate, defaulting to LSL #0 and encoded in sh:

sh <shift>
0 LSL #0
1 LSL #8

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); constant integer VL = CurrentVL; constant integer PL = VL DIV 8; bits(VL) result = Replicate(imm<esize-1:0>, VL DIV esize); Z[d, VL] = result;

Operational information

If FEAT_SVE2 is implemented or FEAT_SME is implemented, then if PSTATE.DIT is 1:
