MicroBlaze Instruction Set Architecture
mulhsu
Multiply High Signed Unsigned
Description
Multiplies the contents of registers rA and rB and puts the result in register rD. This is a 32-bit
signed by 32-bit unsigned multiplication that will produce a 64-bit signed result. The most
significant word of this value is placed in rD. The least significant word is discarded.

Note
This instruction is only valid if the target architecture has multiplier primitives, and if present, the
MicroBlaze parameter
C_USE_HW_MUL
is set to 2 (Mul64).
When MULHSU is used, bit 30 and 31 in the MUL instruction must be zero to distinguish between
the two instructions. In previous versions of MicroBlaze, these bits were defined as zero, but the
actual values were not relevant.
