flw
Floating-Point Load Single-Precision
The flw instruction loads a single-precision floating-point value from memory at address xs1 + imm into floating-point register fd.
It does not modify the bits being transferred; in particular, the payloads of non-canonical NaNs are preserved.
| This instruction must have data-independent timing when extension Zkt is enabled. |
