RSC, RSCS (immediate)
Reverse Subtract with Carry (immediate) subtracts a register value and the value of NOT (Carry flag) from an immediate value, and writes the result to the destination register.
If the destination register is not the PC, the RSCS variant of the instruction updates the condition flags based on the result.
The field descriptions for <Rd> identify the encodings where the PC is permitted as the destination register. ARM deprecates any use of these encodings. However, when the destination register is the PC:
- The RSC variant of the instruction is an interworking branch, see Pseudocode description of operations on the AArch32 general-purpose registers and the PC.
- The RSCS variant of the instruction performs an exception return without the use of the stack. In this case:
- The PE branches to the address written to the PC, and restores PSTATE from SPSR_<current_mode>.
- The PE checks SPSR_<current_mode> for an illegal return event. See Illegal return events from AArch32 state.
- The instruction is undefined in Hyp mode.
- The instruction is constrained unpredictable in User mode and System mode.

Assembler Symbols
<c> |
<q> |
<Rd> |
Is the general-purpose destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field. If omitted, this register is the same as <Rn>. Arm deprecates using the PC as the destination register, but if the PC is used:
|
<Rn> |
Is the general-purpose source register, encoded in the "Rn" field. The PC can be used, but this is deprecated. |
<const> |
An immediate value. See Modified immediate constants in A32 instructions for the range of values. |
Operation
if ConditionPassed() then EncodingSpecificOperations(); (result, nzcv) = AddWithCarry(NOT(R[n]), imm32, PSTATE.C); if d == 15 then if setflags then ALUExceptionReturn(result); else ALUWritePC(result); else R[d] = result; if setflags then PSTATE.<N,Z,C,V> = nzcv;
Operational information
If CPSR.DIT is 1 and this instruction does not use R15 as either its source or destination:
- The execution time of this instruction is independent of:
- The values of the data supplied in any of its registers.
- The values of the NZCV flags.
- The response of this instruction to asynchronous exceptions does not vary based on:
- The values of the data supplied in any of its registers.
- The values of the NZCV flags.
