VMSR
Move general-purpose register to SIMD&FP Special register
Move general-purpose register to SIMD&FP Special register moves the value of a general-purpose register to a floating-point System register.
Depending on settings in the CPACR, NSACR, HCPTR, and FPEXC registers, and the Security state and PE mode in which the instruction is executed, an attempt to execute the instruction might be undefined, or trapped to Hyp mode. For more information see Enabling Advanced SIMD and floating-point support.
When these settings permit the execution of Advanced SIMD and floating-point instructions:
If the specified floating-point System register is FPSID or FPEXC, the instruction is undefined if executed in User mode.
If the specified floating-point System register is the FPSID and the instruction is executed in a mode other than User mode, the instruction is ignored.
For more information about the constrained unpredictable behavior of this instruction, see Architectural Constraints on UNPREDICTABLE behaviors.
It has encodings from the following instruction sets:
A32 (
A1
)
and
T32 (
T1
)
