Problem compiling VMOV.64 instruction using TMS470 Compiler

Jeffrey Mitchell

I am attempting to port some benchmark code to run on the Appleton SoC (from Netra) and can't seem to get around the errors below for the VMOV.64 instruction. Is this valid TI ARM Assemble? This code originated from ARM assembly. Is there a compiler switch I need to be using for these instructions to work properly?

Instruction:

VMOV.64 DO, #0x0,0

Error Message:

Illegal SIMD suffix type for this mnemonic

The VMOV instruction requires a source type of I8, I16, I32, I64, or F32. I tried your example with the ARM compiler 4.0 and 5.0.1 and neither accepted the syntax you provided. The correct instruction is VMOV.I64 D0, #0.

Thank You. This worked. I am not sure how this exact code is working on other designs using ARM tools.
