## Operands
|
||
|
||
| Field | Role | Description |
|
||
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||
| `RS` | stw: read; stwu: read; stwux: read; stwx: read | Source GPR (alias for RD in some stores). |
|
||
| `RA0` | stw: read; stwx: read | Source GPR; when the encoded register number is 0 the operand is the literal 64-bit zero, **not** `r0`. |
|
||
| `d` | stw: read; stwu: read | 16-bit signed displacement (`d`) added to the base address register. |
|
||
| `RA` | stwu: read; stwu: write; stwux: read; stwux: write | Source GPR (`r0`–`r31`). |
|
||
| `RB` | stwux: read; stwx: read | Source GPR. |
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
```c
|
||
/* stw RS, d(RA) */
|
||
uint64_t base = (insn.RA == 0) ? 0 : r[insn.RA];
|
||
uint32_t ea = (uint32_t)(base + (int64_t)(int16_t)insn.D);
|
||
mem_write_u32_be(ea, (uint32_t)r[insn.RS]);

## Special Cases & Edge Conditions
|
||
|
||
- **Stores low 32 bits of `RS`.** Writes `(RS)[32:63]` — the low word of the 64-bit GPR — at `EA`. The xenia snapshot does `mem.write_u32(ea, ctx.gpr[instr.rs()] as u32)`. The high 32 bits are silently truncated; use [`std`](std.md) to store all 64 bits.
|
||
- **Big-endian write.** `RS[32:39]` (the most-significant byte of the low word) lands at `EA`; `RS[56:63]` at `EA+3`. On little-endian hosts the byte-swap happens at the memory boundary.
|
||
- **`RA0` (non-update forms).** `RA = 0` in `stw` and `stwx` selects literal zero. Update forms `stwu` / `stwux` invoke `RA = 0` as an invalid form. **The classic frame-allocation idiom** `stwu r1, -framesize(r1)` exploits the update form: it writes the old SP at the new SP and updates `r1` in one instruction.
|
||
- **Update-form post-write.** `stwu` / `stwux` write `EA` to `RA` after the store. Order is store-then-update, so the new `RA` value reflects the post-update address (typically the new stack-frame base).
|
||
- **No alignment requirement.** Xenon tolerates unaligned word stores. PowerISA permits implementations to raise alignment exceptions on cache-inhibited storage.
|
||
- **Cache-line behaviour.** A word store fits inside one Xenon cache line (128 B). Stores that **straddle** a line boundary touch two lines; keep words 4-byte aligned for best performance.
|
||
- **Common as pointer / ABI store.** Standard store for any `int32_t`/`uint32_t`/pointer field (Xbox 360 user pointers are 32-bit) and the workhorse of stack-frame setup.
