Description

The MVKL pseudo-operation sign extends the 16-bit constant, cst16, and
places it in dst.

The MVKL instruction is equivalent to the MVK instruction (page 3-183),
except that the MVKL instruction disables the constant range checking
normally performed by the assembler/linker. This allows the MVKL instruction
to be paired with the MVKH instruction (page 3-185) to generate 32-bit
constants.

To load 32-bit constants, such as 1234 ABCDh, use the following pair of
instructions:

MVKL .S1 0x0ABCD, A4
MVKLH .S1 0x1234, A4

This could also be used:

MVKL .S1 0x1234ABCD, A4
MVKH .S1 0x1234ABCD, A4

Use this to load the address of a label:

MVKL .S2

label, B5

MVKH .S2

label, B5

Execution

if (cond) scst dst

else nop
