8.5.28. cmpgti

Instruction compare greater than signed immediate
Operation

if ((signed) rA > (signed) IMMED)

then rB ←  1

else rB ←  0

Assembler Syntax

cmpgti rB, rA, IMMED

Example

cmpgti r6, r7, 100

Description

Sign-extends the immediate value IMMED to 32 bits and compares it to the value of rA. If rA > σ(IMMED), then cmpgti stores 1 to rB; otherwise stores 0 to rB.

Usage

cmpgti performs the signed > operation of the C programming language. The maximum allowed value of IMMED is 32766. The minimum allowed value is –32769.

Pseudo-instruction

cmpgti is implemented using a cmpgei instruction with an IMM16 immediate value of IMMED + 1.
