BDEP

Scatter lower bits into positions selected by bitmask

This instruction scatters the lowest-numbered contiguous bits within each element of the first source vector to the bit positions indicated by non-zero bits in the corresponding mask element of the second source vector, preserving their order, and set the bits corresponding to a zero mask bit to zero. This instruction is unpredicated.

ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1.BitPerm indicates whether this instruction is implemented.

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

Encoding: SVE2

Variants: FEAT_SVE_BitPerm (ARMv9.0)

Decoding algorithm

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SVE_BitPerm) then EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF);
constant integer esize = 8 << UInt(size);
constant integer n = UInt(Zn);
constant integer m = UInt(Zm);
constant integer d = UInt(Zd);

Operation

if IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SSVE_BitPerm) then
    CheckSVEEnabled();
else
    CheckNonStreamingSVEEnabled();
constant integer VL = CurrentVL;
constant integer elements = VL DIV esize;
constant bits(VL) data = Z[n, VL];
constant bits(VL) mask = Z[m, VL];
bits(VL) result;

for e = 0 to elements - 1
    Elem[result, e, esize] = BitDeposit(Elem[data, e, esize], Elem[mask, e, esize]);

Z[d, VL] = result;

Explanations

<Zd>: Is the name of the destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zd" field.
<T>: <Zn>: Is the name of the first source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.
<Zm>: Is the name of the second source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zm" field.

Operational Notes

If PSTATE.DIT is 1:

• The execution time of this instruction is independent of:
  • The values of the data supplied in any of its registers.
  • The values of the NZCV flags.
• The response of this instruction to asynchronous exceptions does not vary based on:
  • The values of the data supplied in any of its registers.
  • The values of the NZCV flags.
