Description
Backward permute. This does not access LDS memory and may be called even if no LDS memory is allocated to the wave. It uses LDS hardware to implement an arbitrary swizzle across threads in a wavefront. Note the address passed in is the thread ID multiplied by 4. Note that EXEC mask is applied to both VGPR read and write. If src_lane selects a disabled thread then zero is returned. See also DS_PERMUTE_B32.
Semantics
// VGPR[laneId][index] is the VGPR RAM
// VDST, ADDR and DATA0 are from the microcode DS encoding
declare tmp : 32'B[64];
declare OFFSET : 16'U;
declare DATA0 : 32'U;
declare VDST : 32'U;
for i in 0 : 63 do
tmp[i] = 0x0
endfor;
for i in 0 : 63 do
// ADDR needs to be divided by 4.
// High-order bits are ignored.
src_lane = (VGPR[i][ADDR].u32 + OFFSET.u32) / 4U % 64U;
// EXEC is applied to the source VGPR reads.
if EXEC[src_lane].u1 then
tmp[i] = VGPR[src_lane][DATA0]
endif
endfor;
// Copy data into destination VGPRs. Some source
// data may be broadcast to multiple lanes.
for i in 0 : 63 do
if EXEC[i].u1 then
VGPR[i][VDST] = tmp[i]
endif
endfor
