STNP (SIMD&FP)

Store Pair of SIMD&FP registers, with Non-temporal hint. This instruction stores a pair of SIMD&FP registers to memory, issuing a hint to the memory system that the access is non-temporal. The address used for the store is calculated from an address from a base register value and an immediate offset. For information about non-temporal pair instructions, see Load/Store SIMD and Floating-point Non-temporal pair.

Depending on the settings in the CPACR_EL1, CPTR_EL2, and CPTR_EL3 registers, and the current Security state and Exception level, an attempt to execute the instruction might be trapped.

Assembler Symbols

<Dt1>

Is the 64-bit name of the first SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt" field.

<Dt2>

Is the 64-bit name of the second SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt2" field.

<Qt1>

Is the 128-bit name of the first SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt" field.

<Qt2>

Is the 128-bit name of the second SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt2" field.

<St1>

Is the 32-bit name of the first SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt" field.

<St2>

Is the 32-bit name of the second SIMD&FP register to be transferred, encoded in the "Rt2" field.

<Xn|SP>

Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose base register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field.

<imm>

For the 32-bit variant: is the optional signed immediate byte offset, a multiple of 4 in the range -256 to 252, defaulting to 0 and encoded in the "imm7" field as <imm>/4.

For the 64-bit variant: is the optional signed immediate byte offset, a multiple of 8 in the range -512 to 504, defaulting to 0 and encoded in the "imm7" field as <imm>/8.

For the 128-bit variant: is the optional signed immediate byte offset, a multiple of 16 in the range -1024 to 1008, defaulting to 0 and encoded in the "imm7" field as <imm>/16.

Operational information

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