Decode Variables

Bits<12> imm = $encoding[31:20];
Bits<5> rs1 = $encoding[19:15];
Bits<5> rd = $encoding[11:7];

Execution

  • Pruned, XLEN == 64

  • Original

XReg virtual_address = X[rs1] + imm;
X[rd] = read_memory<16>(virtual_address, $encoding);
XReg virtual_address = X[rs1] + imm;
X[rd] = read_memory<16>(virtual_address, $encoding);
