The ENC_VGLOBAL layout from AMD's machine-readable ISA specification (AMD CDNA 5). Opcode 84 in OP rebuilds 0x0000000000000000EE150000, an identifier AMD lists for this encoding. Bits marked unassigned have no field in the specification. Not the same in every generation: AMD RDNA 4 (field layout).

Format GLOBAL
Width 96 bits
Opcode 84

Operands

  • VADDR
    Read. Operand must be a vector GPR. Uses an 8-bit operand field. Data format: Value can be anything. (OPR_VGPR, FMT_ANY)
  • VSRC
    Read. Operand must be a vector GPR. Uses an 8-bit operand field. Data format: Value can be anything. (OPR_VGPR, FMT_ANY)
  • SADDR
    Read. Any scalar GPR operand including VCC and NULL. Data format: Value can be anything. (OPR_SREG, FMT_ANY)

In AMD's order, as its machine-readable ISA specification lists them for the ENC_VGLOBAL encoding (AMD CDNA 5).
