Abstract
A system and method to execute a linear feedback-shift instruction is disclosed. In a particular embodiment the method includes executing an instruction at a processor by receiving source data and executing a bitwise logical operation on the source data and on reference data to generate intermediate data. The method further includes determining a parity value of the intermediate data, shifting the source data, and entering the parity value of the intermediate data into a data field of the shifted source data to produce resultant data.
