LD1B (scalar plus vector)

Gather load unsigned bytes to vector (vector index)

Gather load of unsigned bytes to active elements of a vector register from memory addresses generated by a 64-bit scalar base plus vector index. The index values are optionally sign or zero-extended from 32 to 64 bits. Inactive elements will not cause a read from Device memory or signal faults, and are set to zero in the destination vector.

This instruction is illegal when executed in Streaming SVE mode, unless FEAT_SME_FA64 is implemented and enabled.

It has encodings from 3 classes: 32-bit unpacked unscaled offset , 32-bit unscaled offset and 64-bit unscaled offset

Assembler Symbols

<Zt>

Is the name of the scalable vector register to be transferred, encoded in the "Zt" field.

<Pg>

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

<Xn|SP>

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

<Zm>

Is the name of the offset scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zm" field.

<mod>

Is the index extend and shift specifier, encoded in xs:

xs <mod>
0 UXTW
1 SXTW

Operation

CheckNonStreamingSVEEnabled(); constant integer VL = CurrentVL; constant integer PL = VL DIV 8; constant integer elements = VL DIV esize; bits(64) base; bits(PL) mask = P[g, PL]; bits(VL) offset; bits(VL) result; bits(msize) data; constant integer mbytes = msize DIV 8; boolean contiguous = FALSE; boolean nontemporal = FALSE; boolean tagchecked = TRUE; AccessDescriptor accdesc = CreateAccDescSVE(MemOp_LOAD, nontemporal, contiguous, tagchecked); if !AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then if n == 31 && ConstrainUnpredictableBool(Unpredictable_CHECKSPNONEACTIVE) then CheckSPAlignment(); else if n == 31 then CheckSPAlignment(); base = if n == 31 then SP[] else X[n, 64]; offset = Z[m, VL]; for e = 0 to elements-1 if ActivePredicateElement(mask, e, esize) then integer off = Int(Elem[offset, e, esize]<offs_size-1:0>, offs_unsigned); bits(64) addr = GenerateAddress(base, off << scale, accdesc); data = Mem[addr, mbytes, accdesc]; Elem[result, e, esize] = Extend(data, esize, unsigned); else Elem[result, e, esize] = Zeros(esize); Z[t, VL] = result;

Operational information

If FEAT_SVE2 is implemented or FEAT_SME is implemented, then if PSTATE.DIT is 1, the timing of this instruction is insensitive to the value of the data being loaded or stored when its governing predicate register contains the same value for each execution.
