-Values for mm field (bits 12:13 above):
-
-* mm = 00 -> no predicate mask, and use current global saturation / rounding settings
-* mm = 00 -> no predicate mask, and force saturation or rounding for this instruction only
-* mm = 10 -> use v1 as predicate mask, and use global saturation / rounding settings
-* mm = 11 -> use ~v1 as predicate mask, and use global saturation / rounding settings

## Register file comparison
The default Harmonised RVP GPR register file is divided into a lower bank of Vector[INT8] and an upper bank of Vector[INT16].
