Abstract

Processing circuitry () and an instruction decoder () supports a load chunk instruction and a store chunk instruction which can be useful for implementing memory copy functions and other library functions for manipulating or comparing blocks of memory. Number of bytes to load or store in response to these instructions is determined based on an implementation specific condition. As well as loading or storing bytes of data, the load chunk instruction and () store chunk instruction also designated a load/store length value as data corresponding to an architecturally visible register, which provides an indication of a number of bytes loaded or stored.
