RDSVL

Read multiple of Streaming SVE vector register size to scalar register

This instruction multiplies the Streaming SVE vector register size in bytes by an immediate in the range -32 to 31 and places the result in the 64-bit destination general-purpose register.

This instruction does not require the PE to be in Streaming SVE mode.

Encoding: SME

Variants: FEAT_SME (PROFILE_A)

RDSVL <Xd>, #<imm>

Decoding algorithm

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME) then EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF);
constant integer d = UInt(Rd);
constant integer imm = SInt(imm6);

Operation

CheckSMEEnabled();
constant integer SVL = CurrentSVL;
constant integer len = imm * (SVL DIV 8);
X[d, 64] = len<63:0>;

Explanations

<Xd>: Is the 64-bit name of the destination general-purpose register, encoded in the "Rd" field.
<imm>: Is the signed immediate operand, in the range -32 to 31, encoded in the "imm6" 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.
