VTST

Vector Test Bits takes each element in a vector, and bitwise ANDs it with the corresponding element of a second vector. If the result is not zero, the corresponding element in the destination vector is set to all ones. Otherwise, it is set to all zeros.

The operand vector elements can be any one of:

The result vector elements are fields the same size as the operand vector elements.

Depending on settings in the CPACR, NSACR, and HCPTR registers, and the Security state and PE mode in which the instruction is executed, an attempt to execute the instruction might be undefined, or trapped to Hyp mode. For more information see Enabling Advanced SIMD and floating-point support.

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

See Standard assembler syntax fields.

<dt>

Is the data type for the elements of the operands, encoded in size:

size <dt>
00 8
01 16

Is the 128-bit name of the first SIMD&FP source register, encoded in the "N:Vn" field as <Qn>*2.

<Qm>

Is the 128-bit name of the second SIMD&FP source register, encoded in the "M:Vm" field as <Qm>*2.

<Dd>

Is the 64-bit name of the SIMD&FP destination register, encoded in the "D:Vd" field.

<Dn>

Is the 64-bit name of the first SIMD&FP source register, encoded in the "N:Vn" field.

<Dm>

Is the 64-bit name of the second SIMD&FP source register, encoded in the "M:Vm" field.

Operation

if ConditionPassed() then EncodingSpecificOperations(); CheckAdvSIMDEnabled(); for r = 0 to regs-1 for e = 0 to elements-1 if !IsZero(Elem[D[n+r],e,esize] AND Elem[D[m+r],e,esize]) then Elem[D[d+r],e,esize] = Ones(esize); else Elem[D[d+r],e,esize] = Zeros(esize);
