HL.SUBI is a 48-bit scalar ALU instruction. It performs subtraction under the complete XLEN value result rules; its current instruction contract defines the result publication path and any additional state effect.
Execution snapshots the encoded inputs, then performs subtraction under the complete XLEN value result rules, and only afterward performs the destination effects.
RegDst field selects the Reg5 scalar result target or discards the result.SrcL field selects a scalar value through Reg5.uimm24 field carries the unsigned split 24-bit immediate.These roles come from the current instruction contract. T/U sources are read and snapshotted without being removed from their queues; exact encoded-zero meanings appear in the generated defaults below.
Every scalar source is snapshotted before the destination effect. The completed value is then routed through RegDst using the current scalar destination map.
This ALU operation has no memory effect. After its successful architectural effects, TPC advances by 6 bytes.
The operation does not introduce a hidden scalar publication target or an implicit memory access. Architectural changes remain limited to the state effects enumerated by the current contract.
Fixed-width arithmetic follows the operation’s wraparound rule without an arithmetic exception. A fixed-bit mismatch or unavailable selected T/U source raises Fault_IllegalInstruction before publication and before TPC advances.
The generated legality table is authoritative for assigned field values, reserved encodings, and destination discard codes. Decode and source availability are checked before architectural effects.
This example illustrates the current ASL owner and does not replace the normative operation.
For a small HL.SUBI example, SrcL=7 and uimm24=3 produce 4.
Bodies come from owning ASL. Dragging or buttons change only this page-session view order.
HL.SUBI MUST reconstruct its split uimm24 field exactly and apply subtraction with a zero-extended unsigned 24-bit immediate. The result MUST wrap modulo 2^PTO_XLEN. SrcL MUST use the complete non-consuming Reg5 source map. RegDst MUST use the common GPR, discard, U-push, and T-push destination map. The source MUST be snapshotted before destination publication. Successful execution MUST advance TPC by six bytes and MUST NOT change memory, Tile, block, reservation, privilege, numeric-status, or fault state.
