Thanks for the report and patch. I independently reproduced and validated this issue, then reimplemented the accepted behavior with shared direct/SMIR validation and expanded tests in #296. That rollup includes your co-author credit and asks for your review. I’m closing this PR as superseded by #296 so the fixes can be reviewed and merged as one coherent change. |

Closes #259
Summary
The unit-stride (
vle,vse), strided (vlse,vsse) and indexed (vlxei,vsxei) vector load/store instructions name a data register group whose size is EMUL = EEW/SEW * LMUL registers (LMUL registers for the indexed forms), and the RISC-V V extension requires each group to be specified by its lowest-numbered register (riscv-v-spec, Section 3.4.2). The affectedexec_vector_memorybranches performed the access without any alignment check, so reserved encodings such asvle32.v v3, (x5)with e32/m2 (vd=v3 misaligned) were executed. QEMU raises SIGILL for these encodings viavext_check_load/vext_check_store/vext_check_ld_index/vext_check_st_index.The fix rejects a misaligned data group
vd, computing EMUL from vtype.Validation
cargo test --lib: the targeted vector-load/store alignment tests pass, and the full library test suite passes with no regressions.No new upstream test files are added; this is a source-only change.
