Description

Load 1-component formatted data from a buffer surface, convert the data to 32 bit integral or floating point format, then store the result into a vector register. The instruction specifies the data format of the surface, overriding the resource descriptor.

Semantics

addr = CalcBufferAddr(VADDR.b32, SRSRC.b32, SOFFSET.b32, OFFSET.b32); VDATA[31 : 0].b32 = ConvertFromFormat(MEM[addr + ChannelOffsetX()]); // Mem access size depends on format

Example

tbuffer_load_format_x v255, off, s[8:11], s3, format:21 offset:4095

A real instruction accepted by the LLVM assembler, taken verbatim from LLVM's own AMDGPU MC test suite (gfx11). Not from an AMD document, and not authored here.
