PRFH (scalar plus immediate) Contiguous prefetch halfwords (immediate index) Contiguous prefetch of halfword elements from the memory address generated by a 64-bit scalar base and immediate index in the range -32 to 31 which is multiplied by the vector's in-memory size, irrespective of predication, and added to the base address. The predicate may be used to suppress prefetches from unwanted addresses.

<Pg> Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field. <Xn|SP> Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose base register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field. <imm> Is the optional signed immediate vector offset, in the range -32 to 31, defaulting to 0, encoded in the "imm6" field.
