LASTB (scalar)

Extract last element to general-purpose register

If there is an active element then extract the last active element from the final source vector register. If there are no active elements, extract the highest-numbered element. Then zero-extend and place the extracted element in the destination general-purpose register.

Assembler Symbols

<R>

Is a width specifier, encoded in size:

size <R>
01 W
x0 W
11 X
<d>

Is the number [0-30] of the destination general-purpose register or the name ZR (31), encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Pg>

Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field.

<Zn>

Is the name of the source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.

<T>

Is the size specifier, encoded in size:

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

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); constant integer VL = CurrentVL; constant integer PL = VL DIV 8; constant integer elements = VL DIV esize; bits(PL) mask = P[g, PL]; bits(VL) operand = Z[n, VL]; bits(rsize) result; integer last = LastActiveElement(mask, esize); if isBefore then if last < 0 then last = elements - 1; else last = last + 1; if last >= elements then last = 0; result = ZeroExtend(Elem[operand, last, esize], rsize); X[d, rsize] = result;

Operational information

If FEAT_SME is implemented and the PE is in Streaming SVE mode, then any subsequent instruction which is dependent on the general-purpose register written by this instruction might be significantly delayed.
