Struct rsim::processor::isa_mods::vector::types::VType

pub struct VType {
    pub vill: bool,
    pub vma: bool,
    pub vta: bool,
    pub vsew: Sew,
    pub vlmul: Lmul,
}

Vector type information

Records the current vector state the program has requested, including element width. Convertible to/from u32, e.g. a register value.

 
let encoded_vtype = 0b00001010011;
let decoded_vtype = VType::decode(encoded_vtype).unwrap();
assert_eq!(decoded_vtype,
    VType {
        vill: false,
        vma: false,
        vta: true,
        vsew: Sew::e32,
        vlmul: Lmul::e8
    }
);
 
let reencoded_vtype = decoded_vtype.encode();
assert_eq!(encoded_vtype, reencoded_vtype);

Fields

vill: bool

Illegal value.

If set, then the program has requested an unsupported configuration.

vma: bool

Vector mask agnostic.

If set, the processor is alowed to overwrite masked-off elements with all 1s.

vta: bool

Vector tail agnostic.

If set, the processor is allowed to overwrite tail elements with all 1s.

vsew: Sew

Selected element width. See Sew

vlmul: Lmul

Length multiplier. See Lmul

Implementations

impl VType

pub fn illegal() -> Self

Generate a VType with the illegal bit vill set, and all other bits zeroed. This should be used when an unsupported vtype is requested by the program.

pub fn elems_per_group(self) -> u32

Shorthand for VType::val_times_lmul_over_sew with x = VLEN

Used for calculating the number of vector elements a vector register can hold in a given configuration.

pub fn encode(&self) -> u32

Encode the VType structure into a u32 This is necessary when a program queries the vector type CSR.

pub fn decode(vtype_bits: u32) -> Result<VType>

Attempt to decode a u32 vtype value (e.g. one encoded in a register value) into an actual VType.

pub fn val_times_lmul_over_sew(self, x: u32) -> u32

Function that evaluates (X * LMUL) / SEW from their enum values

Arguments

• x - value to multiply/divide

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for VType

fn clone(&self) -> VType

Returns a copy of the value.

pub fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for VType

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result
