Abstract: Data processing circuitry comprises allocation circuitry to allocate one or more source and destination processor registers, of a set of processor registers each defined by a respective register index, to a processor instruction for use in execution of that processor instruction and to associate, with the processor instruction, information to indicate the register index of the allocated source and destination processor registers; the avocation circuitry being selectively operable to allocate, to a processor instruction, a group of destination processor registers having a subset of their register indices in common and to associate, with the processor instruction, information to indicate the register index of one processor register of the group and identifying information to identify one or more bits of the register index which differ between the processor registers in the allocated group of processor registers.
