Flexible offset syntax

Both pre-indexed and post-indexed offsets can be either of the following:

#expr

{-}Rm{, shift}

where:

-

is an optional minus sign. If

-

is present, the offset is subtracted from

Rn

.

Otherwise, the offset is added to

Rn

.

expr

is an expression evaluating to an integer in the range –4095 to +4095.
This is often a numeric constant (see examples below).

Rm

is a register containing a value to be used as the offset.

Rm

must not be r15.

shift

is an optional shift to be applied to

Rm

. It can be any one of:

ASR n

arithmetic shift right

n

bits. 1

n

≤ 32.

LSL n

logical shift left

n

bits. 0

n

≤ 31.

LSR n

logical shift right

n

bits. 1

n

≤ 32.

ROR n

rotate right

n

bits. 1

n

≤ 31.

RRX

rotate right one bit, with extend.
