Format:
LW rt, offset (base)
Description:
The 16-bit offset is sign-extended and added to the contents of general register base to form a virtual address.
The contents of the word at the memory location specified by the effective address are loaded into general register
rt . In 64-bit mode, the loaded word is sign-extended.
If either of the two least-significant bits of the effective address is non-zero, an address error exception occurs.
Operation:
vAddr ← ((offset
32
T:
(pAddr, uncached) ← AddressTranslation (vAddr, DATA)
pAddr ← pAddr
mem ← LoadMemory (uncached, WORD, pAddr, vAddr, DATA)
byte ← vAddr
GPR [rt] ← mem
vAddr ← ((offset
64
T:
(pAddr, uncached) ← AddressTranslation (vAddr, DATA)
pAddr ← pAddr
mem ← LoadMemory (uncached, WORD, pAddr, vAddr, DATA)
byte ← vAddr
GPR [rt] ← (mem
Exceptions:
TLB refill exception
TLB invalid exception
Bus error exception
Address error exception
