SVE Bitwise AND Reduction
ANDV <Vd>, <Pg>, <Zn>.<T>
ANDs all active elements into a scalar.
Details
SVE bitwise AND reduction: performs a bitwise AND of all active elements in vector Zn according to predicate mask Pg, and stores the result as a scalar in Vd. The operation reduces a vector of integers to a single scalar by bitwise AND across all selected elements (element size determined by sz). No NZCV flags are affected by this instruction.
Pseudocode Operation
bits(esize) result = ALL_ONES(esize);
for i = 0 to VL/esize - 1
if Pg[i] == '1' then
element = Zn[i*esize +: esize];
result = result AND element;
Vd[0 +: esize] ← result;
Example
ANDV v0.4s, p0/m, z1.s.T

Description
Bitwise AND horizontally across all lanes of a vector, and place the result in the SIMD&FP scalar destination register. Inactive elements in the source vector are treated as all ones.
Operation
CheckSVEEnabled();
constant integer VL = CurrentVL;
constant integer PL = VL DIV 8;
constant integer elements = VL DIV esize;
bits(PL) mask = P[g, PL];
bits(VL) operand = if AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then Z[n, VL] else Zeros(VL);
bits(esize) result = Ones(esize);
for e = 0 to elements-1
if ActivePredicateElement(mask, e, esize) then
result = result AND Elem[operand, e, esize];
V[d, esize] = result;
