BEXT

Gather lower bits from positions selected by bitmask

This instruction gathers bits in each element of the first source vector from the bit positions indicated by non-zero bits in the corresponding mask element of the second source vector to the lowest-numbered contiguous bits of the corresponding destination element, preserving their order, and sets the remaining higher-numbered bits to zero. This instruction is unpredicated.

ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1.BitPerm indicates whether this instruction is implemented.

Assembler Symbols

<Zd>

Is the name of the destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zd" field.

<T>

Is the size specifier, encoded in size:

size <T>
00 B
01 H
10 S
11 D
<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.

Operation

CheckNonStreamingSVEEnabled(); integer elements = VL DIV esize; bits(VL) data = Z[n]; bits(VL) mask = Z[m]; bits(VL) result; for e = 0 to elements - 1 Elem[result, e, esize] = BitExtract(Elem[data, e, esize], Elem[mask, e, esize]); Z[d] = result;
