Loads an 8-byte element from the memory address specified by the displacement a and the pointer b and then splats it onto a vector.
This function requires the POWER7 architecture.
d=vec_xlds(a, b)
The following table describes the types of the returned value and the function arguments.
| d | a | b |
|---|---|---|
| vector signed long long | int | signed long long * |
| long | ||
| vector unsigned long long | int | unsigned long long * |
| long | ||
| vector double | int | double * |
| long |
This function adds the displacement and the pointer R-value to obtain the address for the load operation. It does not truncate the affected address to a multiple of 16 bytes.
