Abstract
A processor having an instruction set including a load-store instruction having operands specifying, from amongst the registers in at least one register file, a respective destination of each of two load operations, a respective source of a store operation, and a pair of address registers arranged to hold three memory addresses, the three memory addresses being a respective load address for each of the two load operations and a respective store address for the store operation. The load-store instruction further includes three stride operands each specifying a respective stride value for each of the two load addresses and one store address, wherein at least some possible values of each stride operand specify the respective stride value by specifying one of a plurality of fields within a stride register in one of the one or more register files, each field holding a different stride value.
