LDADDB, LDADDAB, LDADDALB, LDADDLB
Atomic add on byte in memory
This instruction
atomically loads an 8-bit byte from memory, adds the value held in a register
to it, and stores the result back to memory.
The value initially loaded from memory is returned in the destination register.
If the destination register is not WZR, LDADDAB and
LDADDALB load from memory with acquire semantics.
LDADDLB and LDADDALB store to memory with release
semantics.
LDADDB has neither acquire nor release semantics.
For more information about memory ordering semantics, see
Load-Acquire, Store-Release.
For information about addressing modes, see
Load/Store addressing modes.
If PSTATE.DIT is 1, the timing of this instruction is insensitive to the value of the data being loaded or stored.
This instruction is used by the alias
STADDB, STADDLB
A == '0' && Rt == '11111'

<Ws>
Is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose register holding the data value to be operated on with the contents of the memory location, encoded in the "Rs" field.
<Wt>
Is the 32-bit name of the general-purpose register to be loaded, encoded in the "Rt" field.
<Xn|SP>
Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose base register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field.
