DBG

In Armv8, DBG executes as a NOP. Arm deprecates any use of the DBG instruction.

It has encodings from the following instruction sets: A32 ( A1 ) and T32 ( T1 ) .

A1

DBG{<c>}{<q>} #<option>

// DBG executes as a NOP. The 'option' field is ignored

T1

T1

DBG{<c>}{<q>} #<option>

// DBG executes as a NOP. The 'option' field is ignored

Assembler Symbols

<c>

See Standard assembler syntax fields.

<q>

See Standard assembler syntax fields.

<option>

Is a 4-bit unsigned immediate, in the range 0 to 15, encoded in the "option" field.

Operation

if ConditionPassed() then EncodingSpecificOperations();
