Some commentary would be good here, quoting the rule being applied.  E.g. "The
destination vector register group for a masked vector instruction can only
overlap the source mask regis-
ter (v0) when LMUL=1. (Section 5.3)"

Perhaps NF should have the +1 done during decode, so that it cannot be
forgotten here or elsewhere.  E.g.

%nf      31:3  !function=ex_plus_1
@r2_nfvm ... ... vm:1 ..... ..... ... ..... ....... \
         &r2nfvm %nf %rs1 %rd

Where ex_plus_1 is the obvious modification of ex_shift_1().

You should use FIELD() to define the fields, and then use FIELD_EX32 and
FIELD_DP32 to reference them.

A loop is overkill -- the access cannot span to 3 pages.  These two functions
can be merged using probe_access and MMU_DATA_{LOAD,STORE}.

You're confusing bit and byte offsets -- cnt and tot are both byte offsets.

This is not what I had in mind, and looks wrong as well.

    int idx = (index * mlen) / 64;
    int pos = (index * mlen) % 64;
    return (((uint64_t *)v0)[idx] >> pos) & 1;

You also might consider passing log2(mlen), so the multiplication could be
strength-reduced to a shift.

If you're going to use cpu_mmu_index, you might as well use cpu_SUFF_data_ra(),
which does not require the mmu_idx parameter.

Likewise.

You don't need to pass mlen, since it's

I'll note that vext_ld_us_mask and vext_st_us_mask are identical, except for:

1) probe_read/write_access (which I already suggested merging, using
MMUAccessType),

2) the name of the ld_elem/st_elem variable (the function types are already
identical), and

3) the clear loop at the end of the load (which could be conditional on
clear_elem != NULL; after inlining, this should be optimized away).

Similarly.
