MOV (bitmask immediate)

Move (bitmask immediate) writes a bitmask immediate value to a register.

This is an alias of ORR (immediate). This means:

313029282726252423222120191817161514131211109876543210
sf01100100Nimmrimms11111Rd
opcRn

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

MOV <Wd|WSP>, #<imm>

is equivalent to

ORR <Wd|WSP>, WZR, #<imm>

and is the preferred disassembly when !MoveWidePreferred(sf, N, imms, immr).

64-bit (sf == 1)

MOV <Xd|SP>, #<imm>

is equivalent to

ORR <Xd|SP>, XZR, #<imm>

and is the preferred disassembly when !MoveWidePreferred(sf, N, imms, immr).

Assembler Symbols

<Wd|WSP>

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

<imm>

For the 32-bit variant: is the bitmask immediate, encoded in "imms:immr", but excluding values which could be encoded by MOVZ or MOVN.

For the 64-bit variant: is the bitmask immediate, encoded in "N:imms:immr", but excluding values which could be encoded by MOVZ or MOVN.

<Xd|SP>

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

Operation
