MOV (to/from SP)

Move register value to or from SP

This instruction copies the value of a register to or from the stack pointer.

This is an alias of ADD (immediate). This means:

313029282726252423222120191817161514131211109876543210
sf001000100000000000000RnRd

32-bit encoding

(sf == 0)

MOV <Wd|WSP>, <Wn|WSP>

is equivalent to

ADD <Wd|WSP>, <Wn|WSP>, #0

and is the preferred disassembly when Rd == '11111' || Rn == '11111'.

64-bit encoding

(sf == 1)

MOV <Xd|SP>, <Xn|SP>

is equivalent to

ADD <Xd|SP>, <Xn|SP>, #0

and is the preferred disassembly when Rd == '11111' || Rn == '11111'.

Assembler Symbols

<Wd|WSP>

Is the 32-bit name of the destination general-purpose register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Wn|WSP>

Is the 32-bit name of the source general-purpose register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field.

<Xd|SP>

Is the 64-bit name of the destination general-purpose register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rd" field.

<Xn|SP>

Is the 64-bit name of the source general-purpose register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field.
