Description

Authenticate Instruction address, using key B. This instruction authenticates an instruction address, using a modifier and key B. If the authentication passes, the upper bits of the address are restored to enable subsequent use of the address. For information on behavior if the authentication fails, see Faulting on pointer authentication. The address is: The modifier is: If FEAT_PAuth_LR is implemented and PSTATE.PACM is 1, then AUTIB1716 and AUTIBSP include a second modifier that is:

Operation

if IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_PAuth) then
    if source_is_sp then
        if IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_PAuth_LR) && PSTATE.PACM == '1' then
            X[d, 64] = AuthIB2(X[d, 64], SP[], X[16, 64], FALSE);
        else
            X[d, 64] = AuthIB(X[d, 64], SP[], FALSE);
    else
        if IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_PAuth_LR) && PSTATE.PACM == '1' && autib1716 then
            X[d, 64] = AuthIB2(X[d, 64], X[n, 64], X[15, 64], FALSE);
        else
            X[d, 64] = AuthIB(X[d, 64], X[n, 64], FALSE);
