PowerPC Register Set
E.1.1.1 General-Purpose Registers (GPRs)
Integer data is manipulated in the processor’s 32 GPRs shown in Figure E-2. The GPRs are
accessed as source and destination registers in the instruction syntax.
Figure E-2. General-Purpose Registers (GPRs)
E.1.1.2 Floating-Point Registers (FPRs)
The PowerPC architecture provides thirty-two 64-bit FPRs as shown in Figure E-3.
