LWU.PCR is a standalone 32-bit AGU instruction that forms a PC-relative address and loads one aligned little-endian 4-byte value.
LWU.PCR clears TPC[1:0], sign-extends simm17 from -65536..65535, multiplies it by 4, and adds the displacement modulo 2^PTO_XLEN to the aligned TPC base.
After complete preflight, the instruction performs one little-endian 4-byte load and zero-extends the loaded 4-byte value to PTO_XLEN for destination publication.
This form performs no base-register writeback; its effective address is used only by the selected memory operation.
TPC supplies the aligned implicit base; simm17 supplies the signed displacement.RegDst receives the loaded result; destination codes 1..23 write GPRs, 30 pushes U, 31 pushes T, and 0 plus 24..29 discard only that result.simm17 assigns every signed value from -65536 through 65535; encoded zero is a zero displacement, not omission.All explicit and implicit scalar sources are snapshotted before memory or destination effects, so aliases observe pre-instruction values.
A successful attempt records one relaxed load event, preserves memory and reservation state, publishes or discards the loaded value, and advances TPC by 4 bytes.
Each effective address must satisfy 4-byte alignment. Misalignment raises Fault_DataAlignment before translation; a later permission or bounded-memory failure raises Fault_DataPage at the original address.
A fault records no successful memory event, performs no partial memory, destination, or writeback effect, preserves pending writeback, and leaves the faulting TPC available for full reissue.
A fixed-bit mismatch, reserved field value, or unavailable selected T/U source raises Fault_IllegalInstruction before instruction effects.
This example demonstrates the address calculation only; exact behavior remains in the current ASL and instruction contract.
With aligned TPC=0x100 and the encoded displacement set to 2, the byte displacement is 8 and the effective address is 0x108. The memory access uses 0x108. If aligned and permitted, the instruction loads 4 bytes from that address.
Bodies come from owning ASL. Dragging or buttons change only this page-session view order.
