lxvh8x XT,RA,RB
Loads a vector of 8 halfwords from memory into a VSX register.
Details
Loads a 128-bit vector containing 8 halfword elements from memory into a VSX register. The effective address is computed as RA|0 + RB. No status fields are modified by this instruction.
Pseudocode Operation
EA ← (RA=0 ? 0 : GPR[RA]) + GPR[RB]
VSR[XT] ← MEM(EA, 16)
