Format:
LHU rt, offset (base)
Description:
The 16-bit
offset
is sign-extended and added to the contents of general register
base
to form a virtual address.
The contents of the halfword at the memory location specified by the effective address are zero-extended and
loaded into general register
rt
.
If the least-significant bit of the effective address is non-zero, an address error exception occurs.
Operation:
32 T: vAddr ((offset15)16 || offset15...0) + GPR [base]
(pAddr, uncached) AddressTranslation (vAddr, DATA)
pAddr pAddrPSIZE - 1...3 || (pAddr2...0 xor (ReverseEndian2 || 0))
mem LoadMemory (uncached, HALFWORD, pAddr, vAddr, DATA)
byte vAddr2...0 xor (BigEndianCPU2 || 0)
GPR
[
rt
]
016 || mem15 + 8 * byte...8 * byte
64 T: vAddr ((offset15)48 || offset15...0) + GPR [base]
(pAddr, uncached) AddressTranslation (vAddr, DATA)
pAddr pAddrPSIZE - 1...3 || (pAddr2...0 xor (ReverseEndian2 || 0))
mem LoadMemory (uncached, HALFWORD, pAddr, vAddr, DATA)
byte vAddr2...0 xor (BigEndianCPU2 || 0)
GPR [rt] 048 || mem15 + 8 * byte...8 * byte
Exceptions:
TLB refill exception
TLB invalid exception
Bus Error exception
Address error exception
