UBFX -- AArch32

UBFX

Unsigned Bit Field Extract extracts any number of adjacent bits at any position from a register, zero-extends them to 32 bits, and writes the result to the destination register.

It has encodings from the following instruction sets: A32 ( A1 ) and T32 ( T1 ) .

A1

31	30	29	28	27	26	25	24	23	22	21	20	19	18	17	16	15	14	13	12	11	10	9	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	1	0

A1

UBFX{<c>}{<q>} <Rd>, <Rn>, #<lsb>, #<width>

constant d = UInt(Rd); constant n = UInt(Rn); constant integer lsbit = UInt(lsb); constant integer widthminus1 = UInt(widthm1); constant integer msbit = lsbit + widthminus1; if d == 15 || n == 15 then UNPREDICTABLE; if msbit > 31 then UNPREDICTABLE;

CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE behavior

If msbit > 31, then one of the following behaviors must occur:

The instruction is undefined.
The instruction executes as NOP.
The value in the destination register is unknown.

T1

15	14	13	12	11	10	9	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	1	0	15	14	13	12	11	10	9	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	1	0

T1

UBFX{<c>}{<q>} <Rd>, <Rn>, #<lsb>, #<width>

constant d = UInt(Rd); constant n = UInt(Rn); constant integer lsbit = UInt(imm3:imm2); constant integer widthminus1 = UInt(widthm1); constant integer msbit = lsbit + widthminus1; // Armv8-A removes UNPREDICTABLE for R13 if d == 15 || n == 15 then UNPREDICTABLE; if msbit > 31 then UNPREDICTABLE;

CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE behavior

If msbit > 31, then one of the following behaviors must occur:

The instruction is undefined.
The instruction executes as NOP.
The value in the destination register is unknown.

Assembler Symbols

<c>	See Standard assembler syntax fields.

<q>	See Standard assembler syntax fields.

<Rd>	Is the general-purpose destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Rn>	Is the general-purpose source register, encoded in the "Rn" field.

<lsb>	For encoding A1: is the bit number of the least significant bit in the field, in the range 0 to 31, encoded in the "lsb" field.
	For encoding T1: is the bit number of the least significant bit in the field, in the range 0 to 31, encoded in the "imm3:imm2" field.

<width>

Is the width of the field, in the range 1 to 32-<lsb>, encoded in the "widthm1" field as <width>-1.

Operation

if ConditionPassed() then EncodingSpecificOperations(); R[d] = ZeroExtend(R[n]<msbit:lsbit>, 32);

Operational information

If CPSR.DIT is 1, this instruction has passed its condition execution check, and does not use R15 as either its source or destination:

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.
