4.6.2

Count register (CTR)

CTR can be used to hold a loop count that can be decremented and tested during execution

of branch instructions that contain an appropriately encoded BO field. If the CTR value is 0

before it is decremented, it is –1 afterward. The entire CTR can hold the branch target

address for a Branch Conditional to CTR (bcctr

x) instruction.

4.6.3

Link register (LR)

The link register, shown in

Table 20, provides the branch target address for the branch

conditional to LR instructions, and it holds the return address after branch and link

instructions.
