# [−][src]Function core::arch::mips64::__msa_sldi_b

    pub unsafe fn __msa_sldi_b(a: v16i8, b: v16i8, imm4: i32) -> v16i8

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`stdsimd` #48556)
This is supported on MIPS-64 and target feature `msa` only.

Vector registers `a` (sixteen signed 8-bit integer numbers) and `b` (sixteen signed 8-bit integer numbers) contain 2-dimensional byte arrays (rectangles) stored row-wise with as many rows as bytes in integer data format df. The two source rectangles `b` and `a` are concatenated horizontally in the order they appear in the syntax, i.e. first `a` and then `b`. Place a new destination rectangle over `b` and then slide it to the left over the concatenation of `a` and `b` by `imm1` columns. The result is written to vector (sixteen signed 8-bit integer numbers).
