Multiply Subtract (A32)

MLS<c> <Rd>, <Rn>, <Rm>, <Ra>

Calculates Rd = Ra - (Rn * Rm).

Pseudocode Operation

product ← Rn * Rm
Rd ← Ra - product
N ← Rd[31]
Z ← (Rd == 0)
C ← unpredictable
V ← unpredictable

Example

MLS r0, r1, r2, r5

Description

Multiply and Subtract multiplies two register values, and subtracts the product from a third register value. The least significant 32 bits of the result are written to the destination register. These 32 bits do not depend on whether the source register values are considered to be signed values or unsigned values.

Operation

if ConditionPassed() then
    EncodingSpecificOperations();
    operand1 = SInt(R[n]);  // operand1 = UInt(R[n]) produces the same final results
    operand2 = SInt(R[m]);  // operand2 = UInt(R[m]) produces the same final results
    addend   = SInt(R[a]);  // addend   = UInt(R[a]) produces the same final results
    result = addend - operand1 * operand2;
    R[d] = result<31:0>;
