bics
Bitwise Bit Clear and Set Flags (64-bit)
BICS <Xd>, <Xn>, <Xm> {, <shift> #<amount>}
Performs BIC and updates flags (64-bit).
Pseudocode Operation
operand2 ← DecodeShift(Xm, shift, amount)
Xd ← Xn AND NOT operand2
N ← Xd[63]
Z ← (Xd == 0)
C ← 0
V ← 0
Example
BICS x0, x1, x2

Description
Bitwise Bit Clear (shifted register), setting flags, performs a bitwise AND of a register value and the complement of an optionally-shifted register value, and writes the result to the destination register. It updates the condition flags based on the result.
Operation
bits(datasize) operand1 = X[n, datasize]; bits(datasize) operand2 = ShiftReg(m, shift_type, shift_amount, datasize); bits(datasize) result; operand2 = NOT(operand2); result = operand1 AND operand2; PSTATE.<N,Z,C,V> = result<datasize-1>:IsZeroBit(result):'00'; X[d, datasize] = result;
