Description
Divides the full 64-bit value in RA (treated as unsigned) by the full 64-bit value in RB (treated as unsigned) and places the 64-bit quotient in RT. If RB is zero, RT is undefined and no exception is raised. When Rc=1, CR0 is updated based on the result; OE is reserved and must be 0.
Operation
dividend ← (RA)
divisor ← (RB)
if divisor = 0 then
quotient ← undefined
else
quotient ← dividend ÷ divisor
RT ← quotient
if Rc = 1 then
CR0 ← (quotient = 0) || (quotient < 0) || (quotient > 0) || SO
Programming Note
When Rc=1 (dot form), CR0 is updated with the signed comparison of the result against zero (LT, GT, EQ) and the current SO bit from XER.
