Rotates the contents of a general-purpose register to the left by a specified number of bits, merges the rotated data with a word of 32 sign bits from that general-purpose register under control of a generated mask, and places the rotated word in the MQ Register and the merged result in another general-purpose register.
Note: The sraiq instruction is supported only in the POWER architecture.

The sraiq instruction rotates the contents of the source general-purpose register (GPR) RS to the left by 32 minus N bits, where N is the shift amount specified by SH, merges the rotated data with a word of 32 sign bits from GPR RS under control of a generated mask, and stores the rotated word in the MQ Register and the merged result in GPR RA. A word of 32 sign bits is generated by taking the sign bit of a GPR and repeating it 32 times to make a full word. This word can be either 0x0000 0000 or 0xFFFF FFFF depending on the value of the GPR. The mask consists of N zeros followed by 32 minus N ones.
This instruction then ANDs the rotated data with the complement of the generated mask, ORs the 32-bit result together, and ANDs the bit result with bit 0 of GPR RS to produce the Carry bit (CA).
The sraiq instruction has two syntax forms. Each syntax form has a different effect on Condition Register Field 0.
Syntax Form | Overflow Exception (OE) | Fixed-Point Exception Register | Record Bit (Rc) | Condition Register Field 0 |
sraiq | None | CA | 0 | None |
sraiq. | None | CA | 1 | LT,GT,EQ,SO |
The two syntax forms of the sraiq instruction always affect the Carry bit (CA) in the Fixed-Point Exception Register. If the syntax form sets the Record (Rc) bit to 1, the instruction affects the Less Than (LT) zero, Greater Than (GT) zero, Equal To (EQ) zero, and Summary Overflow (SO) bits in Condition Register Field 0.
RA | Specifies target general-purpose register where result of operation is stored. |
RS | Specifies source general-purpose register for operation. |
SH | Specifies immediate value for shift amount. |
