Specifications
Description
If (signed) rA >= (signed) rB, then bge transfers program
control to the instruction at label. In the instruction encoding,
the offset given by IMM16 is treated as a signed number of
bytes relative to the instruction immediately following bge. The
two least-significant bits of IMM16 are always zero, because
instruction addresses must be word-aligned.
Exceptions
Misaligned destination address
Instruction Type
I
Instruction Fields
A = Register index of operand rA

bgeu
Instruction
branch if greater than or equal unsigned
Operation
if ((unsigned) rA >= (unsigned) rB)
then PC ← PC + 4 + σ(IMM16)
else PC ← PC + 4
Assembler Syntax
bgeu rA, rB, label
Example
bgeu r6, r7, top_of_loop
Description
If (unsigned) rA >= (unsigned) rB, then bgeu transfers
program control to the instruction at label. In the instruction
encoding, the offset given by IMM16 is treated as a signed
number of bytes relative to the instruction immediately
following bgeu. The two least-significant bits of IMM16 are
always zero, because instruction addresses must be word-
aligned.
Exceptions
Misaligned destination address
