4 MOV, MVN, and NEG, Move, Move NOT, and Negate | ARM VERSION 1.2

Thumb Instruction Reference

5.3.4MOV, MVN, and NEG

Move, Move NOT, and Negate.

Syntax

MOV Rd, #expr

MOV Rd, Rm

MVN Rd, Rm

NEG Rd, Rm

where:
Rd	is the destination register.
expr	is an expression that evaluates (at assembly time) to an integer in the
	range 0-255.
Rm	is the source register.

Usage

The MOV instruction places #expr, or the value from Rm, in Rd.

The MVN instruction takes the value in Rm, performs a bitwise logical NOT operation on the value, and places the result in Rd.

The NEG instruction takes the value in Rm, multiplies it by –1, and places the result in Rd.

Restrictions

In MOV Rd,#expr, MVN, and NEG instructions, Rd and Rm must be in the range r0 to r7.

In MOV Rd, Rm instructions, Rd and Rm can be any register r0 to r15, but see Condition flags on page 5-29.
