add.w
Add (Wide)
ADD.W <Rd>, <Rn>, <Operand2>
Details
Adds Rn and Operand2, storing the result in Rd. If S=1, the N, Z, C, V flags are updated based on the result; otherwise flags are unaffected. This is a Thumb-2 32-bit instruction that allows use of high registers (R8–R15) and larger constant operands than 16-bit Thumb ADD.
Pseudocode Operation
result ← Rn + Operand2; Rd ← result; if S == 1 then: N ← result[31]; Z ← (result == 0); C ← CarryOut(Rn, Operand2); V ← OverflowFrom(Rn, Operand2);
Example
ADD.W r0, r1, r2

Description
Add (register) adds a register value and an optionally-shifted register value, and writes the result to the destination register.
If the destination register is not the PC, the ADDS variant of the instruction updates the condition flags based on the result.
The field descriptions for <Rd> identify the encodings where the PC is permitted as the destination register. If the destination register is the PC:
Operation
if ConditionPassed() then
EncodingSpecificOperations();
shifted = Shift(R[m], shift_t, shift_n, PSTATE.C);
(result, nzcv) = AddWithCarry(R[n], shifted, '0');
if d == 15 then
if setflags then
ALUExceptionReturn(result);
else
ALUWritePC(result);
else
R[d] = result;
if setflags then
PSTATE.<N,Z,C,V> = nzcv;
