B

Branch

This instruction branches unconditionally to a label at a PC-relative offset, with a hint that this is not a subroutine call or return.

Encoding: 26-bit signed PC-relative branch offset

B <label>

Decoding algorithm

constant bits(64) offset = SignExtend(imm26:'00', 64);

Operation

constant boolean branch_conditional = FALSE;
BranchTo(PC64 + offset, BranchType_DIR, branch_conditional);

Explanations

<label>: Is the program label to be unconditionally branched to. Its offset from the address of this instruction, in the range +/-128MB, is encoded as "imm26" times 4.
