Memory Set with tag setting. These instructions perform a memory set using the value in the bottom byte of the source register and store an Allocation Tag to memory for each Tag Granule written. The Allocation Tag is calculated from the Logical Address Tag in the register which holds the first address that the set is made to. The prologue, main, and epilogue instructions are expected to be run in succession and to appear consecutively in memory: SETGP, then SETGM, and then SETGE.
SETGP performs some preconditioning of the arguments suitable for using the SETGM instruction, and performs an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED amount of the memory set. SETGM performs an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED amount of the memory set. SETGE performs the last part of the memory set.
The inclusion of IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED amounts of memory set allows some optimization of the size that can be performed.
The architecture supports two algorithms for the memory set: option A and option B. Which algorithm is used is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.
Portable software should not assume that the choice of algorithm is constant.
After execution of SETGP, option A (which results in encoding PSTATE.C = 0):
After execution of SETGP, option B (which results in encoding PSTATE.C = 1):
For SETGM, option A (encoded by PSTATE.C = 0), the format of the arguments is:
For SETGM, option B (encoded by PSTATE.C = 1), the format of the arguments is:
For SETGE, option A (encoded by PSTATE.C = 0), the format of the arguments is:
For SETGE, option B (encoded by PSTATE.C = 1), the format of the arguments is:
