The ENC_SOPP layout from AMD's machine-readable ISA specification (AMD CDNA 5). Opcode 5 in OP rebuilds 0xBF850000, an identifier AMD lists for this encoding. Not the same in every generation: AMD RDNA 2 (opcode 33), AMD RDNA 1 (opcode 33). The same in AMD RDNA 4, AMD RDNA 3.5, AMD RDNA 3.

Format SOPP
Width 32 bits
Opcode 5
Identifier 0xBF850000

Operands

  • SIMM16
    Read. Description of a clause following this instruction. Data format: 16 bits of arbitrary data. (OPR_CLAUSE, FMT_NUM_B16)

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