MULUW is a 32-bit scalar ALU instruction. It computes the low part of the unsigned product under the low 32-bit word, followed by sign-extension to XLEN result rules; its current instruction contract defines the result publication path and any additional state effect.
Execution snapshots the encoded inputs, then computes the low part of the unsigned product under the low 32-bit word, followed by sign-extension to XLEN result rules, and only afterward performs the destination effects.
RegDst field selects the Reg5 result target or discards the result.SrcL field selects the left multiplicand or additive operand through Reg5.SrcR field selects the right multiplicand through Reg5.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 4 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 MULUW example, unsigned low-word sources 6 and 7 produce the single sign-extended result 42.
Bodies come from owning ASL. Dragging or buttons change only this page-session view order.
