VLD3 (single 3-element structure to one lane)

Load single 3-element structure to one lane of three registers loads one 3-element structure from memory into corresponding elements of three registers. Elements of the registers that are not loaded are unchanged. For details of the addressing mode, see Advanced SIMD addressing mode.

Depending on settings in the CPACR, NSACR, and HCPTR registers, and the Security state and PE mode in which the instruction is executed, an attempt to execute the instruction might be undefined, or trapped to Hyp mode. For more information, see Enabling Advanced SIMD and floating-point support.

It has encodings from the following instruction sets: A32 ( A1 , A2 and A3 ) and T32 ( T1 , T2 and T3 ) .

Assembler Symbols

<c>

For encoding A1, A2 and A3: see Standard assembler syntax fields. This encoding must be unconditional.

For encoding T1, T2 and T3: see Standard assembler syntax fields.

<q>

See Standard assembler syntax fields.

<size>

Is the data size, encoded in size:

size <size>
00 8
01 16
10 32
<list>

Is a list containing the 64-bit names of the three SIMD&FP registers holding the element.

The list must be one of:

{ <Dd>[<index>], <Dd+1>[<index>], <Dd+2>[<index>] }
Single-spaced registers, encoded as "spacing" = 0.
{ <Dd>[<index>], <Dd+2>[<index>], <Dd+4>[<index>] }
Double-spaced registers, encoded as "spacing" = 1. Not permitted when <size> == 8.

The encoding of "spacing" depends on <size>:

<size> == 8
"spacing" is encoded in the "index_align<0>" field.
<size> == 16
"spacing" is encoded in the "index_align<1>" field, and "index_align<0>" is set to 0.
<size> == 32
"spacing" is encoded in the "index_align<2>" field, and "index_align<1:0>" is set to 0b00.

The register <Dd> is encoded in the "D:Vd" field.

The permitted values and encoding of <index> depend on <size>:

<size> == 8
<index> is in the range 0 to 7, encoded in the "index_align<3:1>" field.
<size> == 16
<index> is in the range 0 to 3, encoded in the "index_align<3:2>" field.
<size> == 32
<index> is 0 or 1, encoded in the "index_align<3>" field.
<Rn>

Is the general-purpose base register, encoded in the "Rn" field.

<Rm>

Is the general-purpose index register containing an offset applied after the access, encoded in the "Rm" field.

For more information about the variants of this instruction, see Advanced SIMD addressing mode.

Alignment

Standard alignment rules apply, see Alignment support.

Operation

if ConditionPassed() then EncodingSpecificOperations(); CheckAdvSIMDEnabled(); address = R[n]; Elem[D[d], index,8*ebytes] = MemU[address,ebytes]; Elem[D[d2],index,8*ebytes] = MemU[address+ebytes,ebytes]; Elem[D[d3],index,8*ebytes] = MemU[address+2*ebytes,ebytes]; if wback then if register_index then R[n] = R[n] + R[m]; else R[n] = R[n] + 3*ebytes;

Operational information

If CPSR.DIT is 1, the timing of this instruction is insensitive to the value of the data being loaded or stored.
