The ENC_SMEM layout from AMD's machine-readable ISA specification (AMD CDNA 4). Opcode 40 in OP rebuilds 0x00000000C0A00000, an identifier AMD lists for this encoding. Bits marked unassigned have no field in the specification. The same in the other 3 generations that define it.

Width 64 bits

Operands

  • SBASE
    Read. N/A Data format: 64-bit virtual memory address. (OPR_SREG, FMT_BUF)
  • SOFFSET
    Read. N/A Data format: N/A (OPR_SMEM_OFFSET, FMT_NUM_B32)

In AMD's order, as its machine-readable ISA specification lists them for the ENC_SMEM encoding (AMD CDNA 4).
