Load Register (register) calculates an address from a base register value and an offset register value, loads a word from memory, and writes it to a register. The offset register value can optionally be shifted and extended. For information about memory accesses, see Load/Store addressing modes.

<Wt> |
Is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt" field. |
<Xt> |
Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt" field. |
<Xn|SP> |
Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose base register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field. |
<Wm> |
When option<0> is set to 0, is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose index register, encoded in the "Rm" field. |
<Xm> |
When option<0> is set to 1, is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose index register, encoded in the "Rm" field. |
<amount> |
For the 32-bit variant: is the index shift amount, optional only when <extend> is not LSL. Where it is permitted to be optional, it defaults to #0. It is
encoded in

If PSTATE.DIT is 1, the timing of this instruction is insensitive to the value of the data being loaded or stored.
