Description
src is encoded as count − 1. For src + 1 cycles, no operation is performed. The
maximum value for count is 9. NOP with no operand is treated like NOP 1 with
src encoded as 0000.
A multicycle NOP will not finish if a branch is completed first. For example, if
a branch is initiated on cycle n and a NOP 5 instruction is initiated on cycle
n + 3, the branch is complete on cycle n + 6 and the NOP is executed only from
cycle n + 3 to cycle n + 5. A single-cycle NOP in parallel with other instructions
does not affect operation.
Execution
No operation for count cycles
