ds_write_b128 GPU Native ISA AMD Vector

LDS / Data Share

ds_write_b128

Store 128 bits of data from a vector input register into a data share.

Also written as ds_store_b128. AMD's machine-readable ISA specification lists this name for the same instruction.

The ENC_DS layout from AMD's machine-readable ISA specification (AMD CDNA 4). Opcode 223 in OP rebuilds 0x00000000D9BE0000, an identifier AMD lists for this encoding. Not the same in every generation: AMD CDNA 1 (field layout), AMD RDNA 2 (field layout), AMD RDNA 1 (field layout). The same in AMD CDNA 3, AMD CDNA 2.

Semantics

addr = CalcDsAddr(ADDR.b32, 0x0, 0x0); MEM[addr + OFFSET.u32].b32 = DATA[31 : 0]; MEM[addr + OFFSET.u32 + 4U].b32 = DATA[63 : 32]; MEM[addr + OFFSET.u32 + 8U].b32 = DATA[95 : 64]; MEM[addr + OFFSET.u32 + 12U].b32 = DATA[127 : 96]

Example

ds_write_b128 v1, v[2:5]

A real instruction accepted by the LLVM assembler, taken verbatim from LLVM's own AMDGPU MC test suite. Not from an AMD document, and not authored here.
