+Note on considered alternative naming schemes: we decided to switch to using the reduced mnemonic naming scheme (over some people's objections) since it would be 5 instructions instead of dozens, though we did consider trying to match PowerISA's existing naming scheme for the instructions rather than only for the instruction aliases. <https://bugs.libre-soc.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1015#c7>

# Proposed New Scalar Instructions
fishmv f4, 0x8000 # writes +1.00390625 to f4
```
-# Moves
-
-These instructions perform a straight unaltered bit-level copy from one Register
-File to another.
-
-# FPR to GPR moves
-
-* `fmvtg RT, FRA`
-* `fmvtg. RT, FRA`
-
-move a 64-bit float from a FPR to a GPR, just copying bits directly.
-As a direct bitcopy, no exceptions occur and no status flags are set.
-
-Rc=1 tests RT and sets CR0, exactly like all other Scalar Fixed-Point
-operations.
-
-* `fmvtgs RT, FRA`
-* `fmvtgs. RT, FRA`
-
-move a 32-bit float from a FPR to a GPR, just copying bits. Converts the
-64-bit float in `FRA` to a 32-bit float, using the same method as `stfs`,
-then writes the 32-bit float to `RT`, setting the high 32-bits to zeros.
-Effectively, `fmvtgs` is a macro-fusion of `stfs` and `lwz` and therefore
-does not behave like `frsp` and does not set any fp exception flags.
-
-Since RT is a GPR, Rc=1 follows standard *integer* behaviour, i.e.
-tests RT and sets CR0.
-
-# GPR to FPR moves
-
-`fmvfg FRT, RA`
-
-move a 64-bit float from a GPR to a FPR, just copying bits. No exceptions
-are raised, no flags are altered of any kind.
-
-Rc=1 tests FRT and sets CR1
-
-`fmvfgs FRT, RA`
-
-move a 32-bit float from a GPR to a FPR, just copying bits. Converts the
-32-bit float in `RA` to a 64-bit float, using the same method as `lfs`,
-then writes the 64-bit float to `FRT`. Effectively, `fmvfgs` is a
-macro-fusion of `stw` and `lfs` and therefore no fp exception flags are set.
-
-Rc=1 tests FRT and sets CR1, following usual fp Rc=1 semantics.
-
-# Conversions
-
-Unlike the move instructions
-these instructions perform conversions between Integer and
-Floating Point. Truncation can therefore occur, as well
-as exceptions.

-## FPR to GPR (Integer) conversions
-
-<div id="fpr-to-gpr-conversion-mode"></div>
-
-Different programming languages turn out to have completely different
-semantics for FP to Integer conversion. Below is an overview
-of the different variants, listing the languages and hardware that
-implements each variant.
-
-**Standard IEEE754 conversion**
-
-This conversion is outlined in the IEEE754 specification. It is used
-by nearly all programming languages and CPUs. In the case of OpenPOWER,
-the rounding mode is read from FPSCR
-
-**Standard OpenPower conversion**
-
-This conversion, instead of exact IEEE754 Compliance, performs
-"saturation with NaN converted to minimum valid integer". This
-is also exactly the same as the x86 ISA conversion semantics.
-OpenPOWER however has instructions for both:
-
-* rounding mode read from FPSCR
-* rounding mode always set to truncate
-
-**Java conversion**
-
-For the sake of simplicity, the FP -> Integer conversion semantics generalized from those used by Java's semantics (and Rust's `as` operator) will be referred to as
-[Java conversion semantics](#fp-to-int-java-conversion-semantics).
-
-Those same semantics are used in some way by all of the following languages (not necessarily for the default conversion method):
-
-* Java's
- [FP -> Integer conversion](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se16/html/jls-5.html#jls-5.1.3)
-* Rust's FP -> Integer conversion using the
- [`as` operator](https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/expressions/operator-expr.html#semantics)
-* LLVM's
- [`llvm.fptosi.sat`](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-fptosi-sat-intrinsic) and
- [`llvm.fptoui.sat`](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-fptoui-sat-intrinsic) intrinsics
-* SPIR-V's OpenCL dialect's
- [`OpConvertFToU`](https://www.khronos.org/registry/spir-v/specs/unified1/SPIRV.html#OpConvertFToU) and
- [`OpConvertFToS`](https://www.khronos.org/registry/spir-v/specs/unified1/SPIRV.html#OpConvertFToS)
- instructions when decorated with
- [the `SaturatedConversion` decorator](https://www.khronos.org/registry/spir-v/specs/unified1/SPIRV.html#_a_id_decoration_a_decoration).
-* WebAssembly has also introduced
- [trunc_sat_u](ttps://webassembly.github.io/spec/core/exec/numerics.html#op-trunc-sat-u) and
- [trunc_sat_s](https://webassembly.github.io/spec/core/exec/numerics.html#op-trunc-sat-s)
-
-**JavaScript conversion**
-
-For the sake of simplicity, the FP -> Integer conversion semantics generalized from those used by JavaScripts's `ToInt32` abstract operation will be referred to as [JavaScript conversion semantics](#fp-to-int-javascript-conversion-semantics).
-
-This instruction is present in ARM assembler as FJCVTZS

-|--------|------|--------|-------|-------|----|------|
-| Major | RT | //Mode | FRA | XO | Rc |X-Form|
-
-**Rc=1 and OE=1**
-
-All of these insructions have an Rc=1 mode which sets CR0
-in the normal way for any instructions producing a GPR result.
-Additionally, when OE=1, if the numerical value of the FP number
-is not 100% accurately preserved (due to truncation or saturation
-and including when the FP number was NaN) then this is considered
-to be an integer Overflow condition, and CR0.SO, XER.SO and XER.OV
-are all set as normal for any GPR instructions that overflow.

-| `fp` | -- | `f32` or `f64` (or other types from SimpleV) |
-| `int` | -- | `u32`/`u64`/`i32`/`i64` (or other types from SimpleV) |
-| `uint` | -- | the unsigned integer of the same bit-width as `int` |
-| `int::BITS` | `int` | the bit-width of `int` |
-| `uint::MIN_VALUE` | `uint` | the minimum value `uint` can store: `0` |
-| `uint::MAX_VALUE` | `uint` | the maximum value `uint` can store: `2^int::BITS - 1` |
-| `int::MIN_VALUE` | `int` | the minimum value `int` can store : `-2^(int::BITS-1)` |
-| `int::MAX_VALUE` | `int` | the maximum value `int` can store : `2^(int::BITS-1) - 1` |
-| `int::VALUE_COUNT` | Integer | the number of different values `int` can store (`2^int::BITS`). too big to fit in `int`. |
-| `rint(fp, rounding_mode)` | `fp` | rounds the floating-point value `fp` to an integer according to rounding mode `rounding_mode` |
