CPYFPN, CPYFMN, CPYFEN -- A64

These instructions copy a requested number of bytes in memory from a source address to a destination address in a forward direction. The prologue, main, and epilogue instructions are expected to be run in succession and to appear consecutively in memory: CPYFPN, then CPYFMN, and then CPYFEN.

CPYFPN performs some preconditioning of the arguments suitable for using the CPYFMN instruction, and copies an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED portion of the requested number of bytes. CPYFMN copies a further IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED portion of the remaining bytes. CPYFEN copies any final remaining bytes.

The memory copy performed by these instructions is in the forward direction only, so the instructions are suitable for a memory copy only where there is no overlap between the source and destination locations, or where the source address is greater than the destination address.

The architecture supports two algorithms for the memory copy: option A and option B. Which algorithm is used is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.

<Xn>	For the "Prologue" variant: is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose register that holds the number of bytes to be transferred and is updated by the instruction to encode the remaining size and destination, encoded in the "Rn" field.
	For the "Main" variant: is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose register that holds an encoding of the number of bytes to be transferred, encoded in the "Rn" field.
	For the "Epilogue" variant: is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose register that holds an encoding of the number of bytes to be transferred and is set to zero on completion of the instruction, encoded in the "Rn" field.
