Description

Determines the number of active elements implied by the named predicate constraint, multiplies that by an immediate in the range 1 to 16 inclusive, and then places the result in the scalar destination. The named predicate constraint limits the number of active elements in a single predicate to: Unspecified or out of range constraint encodings generate an empty predicate or zero element count rather than Undefined Instruction exception.

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled();
integer count = DecodePredCount(pat, esize);

X[d, 64] = (count * imm)<63:0>;
