Memory Set, unprivileged. These instructions perform a memory set using the value in the bottom byte of the source register. The prologue, main, and epilogue instructions are expected to be run in succession and to appear consecutively in memory: SETPT, then SETMT, and then SETET.
SETPT performs some preconditioning of the arguments suitable for using the SETMT instruction, and performs an implementation defined amount of the memory set. SETMT performs an implementation defined amount of the memory set. SETET 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 SETPT, option A (which results in encoding PSTATE.C = 0):
After execution of SETPT, option B (which results in encoding PSTATE.C = 1):
For SETMT, option A (encoded by PSTATE.C = 0), the format of the arguments is:
For SETMT, option B (encoded by PSTATE.C = 1), the format of the arguments is:
For SETET, option A (encoded by PSTATE.C = 0), the format of the arguments is:
For SETET, option B (encoded by PSTATE.C = 1), the format of the arguments is:
