Simple-V Facility +Section 8.1 Introduction: The Simple-V facility (abbreviated as SV) provides a way for a programmer to specify that an instruction, or a sequence of instructions, are to be repeatedly executed using successive register operands. It also provides controls to enable individual iterations to be skipped, to address larger sets of general and floating-point registers, to process registers as arrays of smaller elements, and to specify that arithmetic operations should generate saturated values in case of overflow. ...etc... {Describe the facility and what you can do with it at a mid to high level; don't include rationale for design decisions or warnings about possible alternative designs.
