SBFX

Signed Bitfield Extract copies a bitfield of <width> bits starting from bit position <lsb> in the source register to the least significant bits of the destination register, and sets destination bits above the bitfield to a copy of the most significant bit of the bitfield.

This is an alias of SBFM. This means:

sf00100110NimmrimmsRnRd
opc

32-bit (sf == 0 && N == 0)

SBFX <Wd>, <Wn>, #<lsb>, #<width>

is equivalent to

SBFM <Wd>, <Wn>, #<lsb>, #(<lsb>+<width>-1)

and is the preferred disassembly when BFXPreferred(sf, opc<1>, imms, immr).

64-bit (sf == 1 && N == 1)

SBFX <Xd>, <Xn>, #<lsb>, #<width>

is equivalent to

SBFM <Xd>, <Xn>, #<lsb>, #(<lsb>+<width>-1)

and is the preferred disassembly when BFXPreferred(sf, opc<1>, imms, immr).

Assembler Symbols

<Wd>

Is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Wn>

Is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose source register, encoded in the "Rn" field.

<lsb>

For the 32-bit variant: is the bit number of the lsb of the source bitfield, in the range 0 to 31.

For the 64-bit variant: is the bit number of the lsb of the source bitfield, in the range 0 to 63.

<width>

For the 32-bit variant: is the width of the bitfield, in the range 1 to 32-<lsb>.

For the 64-bit variant: is the width of the bitfield, in the range 1 to 64-<lsb>.

<Xd>

Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Xn>

Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose source register, encoded in the "Rn" field.
