VREDUCEPS—Perform Reduction Transformation on Packed Float32 Values

Instruction Operand Encoding

Description

Perform reduction transformation of the packed binary encoded single-precision FP values in the source operand (the second operand) and store the reduced results in binary FP format to the destination operand (the first operand) under the writemask k1.

The reduction transformation subtracts the integer part and the leading M fractional bits from the binary FP source value, where M is a unsigned integer specified by imm8[7:4], see Figure 5-28. Specifically, the reduction transfor-mation can be expressed as:

dest = src – (ROUND(2^M*src))*2^-M;

where “Round()” treats “src”, “2^M”, and their product as binary FP numbers with normalized significand and bi-ased exponents.

The magnitude of the reduced result can be expressed by considering src= 2^p*man2, where ‘man2’ is the normalized significand and ‘p’ is the unbiased exponent

Then if RC = RNE: 0<=|Reduced Result|<=2^p-M-1

Then if RC ≠ RNE: 0<=|Reduced Result|<2^p-M

This instruction might end up with a precision exception set. However, in case of SPE set (i.e. Suppress Precision Exception, which is imm8[3]=1), no precision exception is reported.

EVEX.vvvv is reserved and must be 1111b otherwise instructions will #UD.

Handling of special case of input values are listed in Table 5-21.

Operation

ReduceArgumentSP(SRC[31:0], imm8[7:0])

{

// Check for NaN

IF (SRC [31:0] = NAN) THEN

RETURN (Convert SRC[31:0] to QNaN); FI

M (cid:197) imm8[7:4]; // Number of fraction bits of the normalized significand to be subtracted

RC (cid:197) imm8[1:0];// Round Control for ROUND() operation

RC source (cid:197) imm[2];

SPE (cid:197) 0;// Suppress Precision Exception

TMP[31:0] (cid:197) 2^-M *{ROUND(2^M*SRC[31:0], SPE, RC_source, RC)}; // ROUND() treats SRC and 2^M as standard binary FP values

TMP[31:0] (cid:197) SRC[31:0] – TMP[31:0]; // subtraction under the same RC,SPE controls

RETURN TMP[31:0]; // binary encoded FP with biased exponent and normalized significand
