MSR (immediate)

Move immediate value to Special Register moves an immediate value to selected bits of the PSTATE. For more information, see Process state, PSTATE.

The bits that can be written by this instruction are:

  • PSTATE.D, PSTATE.A, PSTATE.I, PSTATE.F, and PSTATE.SP.
  • If FEAT_SSBS is implemented, PSTATE.SSBS.
  • If FEAT_PAN is implemented, PSTATE.PAN.
  • If FEAT_UAO is implemented, PSTATE.UAO.
  • If FEAT_DIT is implemented, PSTATE.DIT.
  • If FEAT_MTE is implemented, PSTATE.TCO.
