RDFFR, RDFFRS (predicated)

Return predicate of succesfully loaded elements

Read the first-fault register (FFR) and place active elements in the corresponding elements of the destination predicate. Inactive elements in the destination predicate register are set to zero. Optionally sets the First (N), None (Z), !Last (C) condition flags based on the predicate result, and the V flag to zero.

It has encodings from 2 classes: Not setting the condition flags and Setting the condition flags

Assembler Symbols

<Pd>

Is the name of the destination scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pd" field.

<Pg>

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

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); bits(PL) mask = P[g]; bits(PL) ffr = FFR[]; bits(PL) result = ffr AND mask; if setflags then PSTATE.<N,Z,C,V> = PredTest(mask, result, 8); P[d] = result;
