where:
op
is one of:
SXTAB Sign extends an 8-bit value to a 32-bit value and add.
SXTAH Sign extends a 16-bit value to a 32-bit value and add.
SXTAB16 Sign extends two 8-bit values to two 16-bit values and add.
UXTAB Zero extends an 8-bit value to a 32-bit value and add.
UXTAH Zero extends a 16-bit value to a 32-bit value and add.
UXTAB16 Zero extends two 8-bit values to two 16-bit values and add.
cond
is an optional condition code, see
“Conditional Execution”
.
Rd
is the destination register.
Rn
is the first operand register.
Rm
is the register holding the value to rotate and extend.
ROR
#n
is one of:
ROR #8 Value from
Rm
is rotated right 8 bits.
ROR #16
Value from
Rm
is rotated right 16 bits.
ROR #24
Value from
Rm
is rotated right 24 bits.
If ROR #
n
is omitted, no rotation is performed.
Operation
These instructions do the following:
1.
2.
Rotate the value from
Rm
right by 0, 8, 16 or 24 bits.
Extract bits from the resulting value:
SXTAB extracts bits[7:0] from
Rm
and sign extends to 32 bits.
UXTAB extracts bits[7:0] from
Rm
and zero extends to 32 bits.
SXTAH extracts bits[15:0] from
Rm
and sign extends to 32 bits.
UXTAH extracts bits[15:0] from
Rm
and zero extends to 32 bits.
SXTAB16 extracts bits[7:0] from
Rm
and sign extends to 16 bits, and extracts bits [23:16] from
Rm
and sign
extends to 16 bits.
UXTAB16 extracts bits[7:0] from
Rm
and zero extends to 16 bits, and extracts bits [23:16] from
Rm
and zero
extends to 16 bits.
Adds the signed or zero extended value to the word or corresponding halfword of
Rn
and writes the result in
Rd
.
Restrictions
3.
Do not use SP and do not use PC.
Condition Flags
These instructions do not affect the flags.
Examples
SXTAH R4, R8, R6, ROR #16 ; Rotates R6 right by 16 bits, obtains bottom
; halfword, sign extends to 32 bits, adds
; R8,and writes to R4
UXTAB R3, R4, R10 ; Extracts bottom byte of R10 and zero extends
; to 32 bits, adds R4, and writes to R3.
