Bitwise Insert if False

BIF <Vd>.<T>, <Vn>.<T>, <Vm>.<T>

Inserts bits from Vn into Vd where Vm (mask) is 0.

Pseudocode Operation

for i = 0 to (datasize / 8) - 1
  Vd[i*8 +: 8] ← (Vd[i*8 +: 8] & Vm[i*8 +: 8]) | (Vn[i*8 +: 8] & ~Vm[i*8 +: 8])

Example

BIF v0.4s.T, v1.4s.T, v2.4s.T

Description

Bitwise Insert if False. This instruction inserts each bit from the first source SIMD&FP register into the destination SIMD&FP register if the corresponding bit of the second source SIMD&FP register is 0, otherwise leaves the bit in the destination register unchanged. Depending on the settings in the CPACR_EL1, CPTR_EL2, and CPTR_EL3 registers, and the current Security state and Exception level, an attempt to execute the instruction might be trapped.

Operation

CheckFPAdvSIMDEnabled64();
bits(datasize) operand1;
bits(datasize) operand3;
bits(datasize) operand4 = V[n, datasize];

operand1 = V[d, datasize];
operand3 = NOT(V[m, datasize]);

V[d, datasize] = operand1 EOR ((operand1 EOR operand4) AND operand3);
