X6

alias W6architectural number 6

Argument 6

X664-bit view
X only
shared with W6
W632-bit view
bits 31:0 of X6
write

Writing W6 does not simply deposit 32 bits. Bits 63:32 of X6 are reset to zero as a side effect, so a W write always clears the upper half. This is the reason W6 and X6 can never hold unrelated values at the same time.
