Signed division

This instruction is defined by:

Encoding

svg

Synopsis

Divide xs1 by xs2, and store the result in xd. The remainder is discarded.

Division by zero will put -1 into xd.

Division resulting in signed overflow (when most negative number is divided by -1) will put the most negative number into xd;
