<h4 class="subsubsection">9.38.3.2 Instruction Mnemonics</h4>
<a name="index-instruction-mnemonics_002c-s390"></a>
<a name="index-s390-instruction-mnemonics"></a>
<p>All instructions documented in the Principles of Operation are supported
with the mnemonic and order of operands as described.
The instruction mnemonic identifies the instruction format
(<a href="s390-Formats.html#s390-Formats">s390 Formats</a>) and the specific operation code for the instruction.
For example, the &lsquo;<samp>lr</samp>&rsquo; mnemonic denotes the instruction format &lsquo;<samp>RR</samp>&rsquo;
with the operation code &lsquo;<samp>0x18</samp>&rsquo;.
</p>
<p>The definition of the various mnemonics follows a scheme, where the first
character usually hint at the type of the instruction:
</p>
<div class="display">
<table>
<tr><td><pre class="display">a</pre></td><td><pre class="display">add instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>al</samp>&rsquo; for add logical 32-bit</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">b</pre></td><td><pre class="display">branch instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>bc</samp>&rsquo; for branch on condition</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">c</pre></td><td><pre class="display">compare or convert instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>cr</samp>&rsquo; for compare
register 32-bit</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">d</pre></td><td><pre class="display">divide instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>dlr</samp>&rsquo; devide logical register
64-bit to 32-bit</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">i</pre></td><td><pre class="display">insert instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>ic</samp>&rsquo; insert character</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">l</pre></td><td><pre class="display">load instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>ltr</samp>&rsquo; load and test register</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">mv</pre></td><td><pre class="display">move instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>mvc</samp>&rsquo; move character</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">m</pre></td><td><pre class="display">multiply instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>mh</samp>&rsquo; multiply halfword</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">n</pre></td><td><pre class="display">and instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>ni</samp>&rsquo; and immediate</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">o</pre></td><td><pre class="display">or instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>oc</samp>&rsquo; or character</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">sla, sll</pre></td><td><pre class="display">shift left single instruction</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">sra, srl</pre></td><td><pre class="display">shift right single instruction</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">st</pre></td><td><pre class="display">store instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>stm</samp>&rsquo; store multiple</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">s</pre></td><td><pre class="display">subtract instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>slr</samp>&rsquo; subtract
logical 32-bit</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">t</pre></td><td><pre class="display">test or translate instruction, of example &lsquo;<samp>tm</samp>&rsquo; test under mask</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">x</pre></td><td><pre class="display">exclusive or instruction, for example &lsquo;<samp>xc</samp>&rsquo; exclusive or
character</pre></td></tr>
</table>
</div>
<p>Certain characters at the end of the mnemonic may describe a property
of the instruction:
</p>
<div class="display">
<table>
<tr><td><pre class="display">c</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the instruction uses a 8-bit character operand</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">f</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the instruction extends a 32-bit operand to 64 bit</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">g</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the operands are treated as 64-bit values</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">h</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the operand uses a 16-bit halfword operand</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">i</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the instruction uses an immediate operand</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">l</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the instruction uses unsigned, logical operands</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">m</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the instruction uses a mask or operates on multiple values</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">r</pre></td><td><pre class="display">if r is the last character, the instruction operates on registers</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre class="display">y</pre></td><td><pre class="display">the instruction uses 20-bit displacements</pre></td></tr>
</table>
</div>
<p>There are many exceptions to the scheme outlined in the above lists, in
particular for the priviledged instructions. For non-priviledged
instruction it works quite well, for example the instruction &lsquo;<samp>clgfr</samp>&rsquo;
c: compare instruction, l: unsigned operands, g: 64-bit operands,
f: 32- to 64-bit extension, r: register operands. The instruction compares
an 64-bit value in a register with the zero extended 32-bit value from
a second register.
For a complete list of all mnemonics see appendix B in the Principles
of Operation.
