bext

Single-Bit extract (Register)

This instruction is defined by:

anyOf:
- B, version >= 0
- Zbs, version >= 0

This instruction is included in the following profiles:

RVA22U64 (Mandatory)

Encoding

Assembly format

bext rd, rs1, rs2

Synopsis

This instruction returns a single bit extracted from rs1 at the index specified in rs2. The index is read from the lower log2(XLEN) bits of rs2.
