* <https://git.openpower.foundation/isa/PowerISA/issues/87>
**Severity**: Major
**Books and Section affected**:
```
- Book I Scalar Floating-Point 4.6.2.1
+ Book I, new Scalar Chapter. (Or, new Book on "Zero-Overhead Loop Subsystem")
Appendix E Power ISA sorted by opcode
Appendix F Power ISA sorted by version
Appendix G Power ISA sorted by Compliancy Subset
```
Addition of six new "Zero-Overhead-Loop-Control" DSP-style Vector-style
- Management Instructions.
+ Management Instructions which can be implemented extremely efficiently
+ and effectively by inserting an additional phase between Decode and Issue.
+ More complex designs are NOT adversely impacted and in fact greatly benefit
+ whilst still retaining an obvious linear sequential execution programming model.
```
**Impact on software**:
```
Cray Supercomputing, Vectorisation, Zero-Overhead-Loop-Control,
- Scalable Vectors
+ Scalable Vectors, Multi-Issue Out-of-Order, Sequential Programming Model
```
**Motivation**
\newpage{}
-# Vertical-First Stepping and status
+# svstep: Vertical-First Stepping and status reporting
SVL-Form
\newpage{}
-# DX-Form
+# SVL-Form
-Add the following to Book I, 1.6.1.6, DX-Form
+Add the following to Book I, 1.6.1, SVL-Form
```
|0 |6 |11 |16 |23 |24 |25 |26 |31 |
* Add `SVL` to `Rc (31)` Field in Book I, 1.6.2
* Add `SVL` to `XO (26:31)` Field in Book I, 1.6.2
+Add the following to Book I, 1.6.2
