Abstract: Kopieren von Zeichen aus einer Gruppe von abgeschlossenen Zeichendaten von einer Speicherposition zu einer anderen Speicherposition unter Verwendung einer Parallelverarbeitung, ohne dass unzulässige Ausnahmebedingungen bewirkt werden. Die Zeichendaten, die kopiert werden soll, werden in ein oder mehrere Vektorregister geladen. Im Einzelnen wird bei einer Ausführungsform ein Befehl (z. B. ein Befehl Vector Load to block Boundary) verwendet, der Daten parallel in ein Vektorregister bis zu einer spezifizierten Grenze lädt und eine Möglichkeit bereitstellt, die Anzahl von Zeichen zu ermitteln, die geladen wurden. Um die Anzahl von geladenen Zeichen (einen Zählwert) zu ermitteln, wird ein weiterer Befehl (z. B. ein Befehl Load Count to Block Boundary) verwendet. Des Weiteren wird ein Befehl (z. B. ein Befehl Vector Find Element Not Equal) verwendet, um den Index des ersten Begrenzungszeichens, wie z. B. ein Zero- oder Null-Zeichen in den Zeichendaten zu finden. Dieser Befehl prüft parallel eine Vielzahl von Datenbytes.

Abstract: Multiple sets of character data having termination characters are compared using parallel processing and without causing unwarranted exceptions. Each set of character data to be compared is loaded within one or more vector registers. In particular, in one embodiment, for each set of character data to be compared, an instruction is used that loads data in a vector register to a specified boundary, and provides a way to determine the number of characters loaded. Further, an instruction is used to find the index of the first delimiter character, i.e., the first zero or null character, or the index of unequal characters. Using these instructions, a location of the end of one of the sets of data or a location of an unequal character is efficiently provided.

Abstract: A Load to Block Boundary instruction is provided that loads a variable number of bytes of data into a register while ensuring that a specified memory boundary is not crossed. The boundary may be specified a number of ways, including, but not limited to, a variable value in the instruction text, a fixed instruction text value encoded in the opcode, or a register based boundary.

Abstract: Processing of character data is facilitated. A Find Element Not Equal instruction is provided that compares data of multiple vectors for inequality and provides an indication of inequality, if inequality exists. An index associated with the unequal element is stored in a target vector register. Further, the same instruction, the Find Element Not Equal instruction, also searches a selected vector for null elements, also referred to as zero elements. A result of the instruction is dependent on whether the null search is provided, or just the compare.

Abstract: Vector exception handling is facilitated. A vector instruction is executed that operates on one or more elements of a vector register. When an exception is encountered during execution of the instruction, a vector exception code is provided that indicates a position within the vector register that caused the exception. The vector exception code also includes a reason for the exception.

Abstract: A Vector Galois Field Multiply Sum and Accumulate instruction. Each element of a second operand of the instruction is multiplied in a Galois field with the corresponding element of the third operand to provide one or more products. The one or more products are exclusively ORed with each other and exclusively ORed with a corresponding element of a fourth operand of the instruction. The results are placed in a selected operand.
