SXTB, SXTH, SXTW

Signed byte / halfword / word extend (predicated)

Sign-extend the least-significant sub-element of each active element of the source vector, and place the results in the corresponding elements of the destination vector. Inactive elements in the destination vector register remain unmodified.

It has encodings from 3 classes: Byte , Halfword and Word

Assembler Symbols

<Zd>

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

<T>

For the byte variant: is the size specifier, encoded in size:

size <T>
00 RESERVED
01 H
10 S
11 D

For the halfword variant: is the size specifier, encoded in size<0>:

size<0> <T>
0 S
1 D
<Pg>

Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field.

<Zn>

Is the name of the source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); integer elements = VL DIV esize; bits(PL) mask = P[g]; bits(VL) operand = if AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then Z[n] else Zeros(); bits(VL) result = Z[d]; for e = 0 to elements-1 if ElemP[mask, e, esize] == '1' then bits(esize) element = Elem[operand, e, esize]; Elem[result, e, esize] = Extend(element<s_esize-1:0>, esize, unsigned); Z[d] = result;

Operational information

If FEAT_SVE2 is enabled or FEAT_SME is enabled, then when PSTATE.DIT is 1:

This instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction. The MOVPRFX instruction must conform to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of the MOVPRFX and this instruction is unpredictable:
