Bitwise exclusive NOR population count outer product, subtracting
This instruction works with 32-bit element ZA tile. This instruction generates an outer product of the first source SVLS×1 vector and the second source 1×SVLS vector. Each outer product element is obtained as population count of the bitwise XNOR result of the corresponding 32-bit elements of the first source vector and the second source vector. Each source vector is independently predicated by a corresponding governing predicate. When either source vector element is inactive the corresponding destination tile element remains unmodified. The resulting SVLS×SVLS product is then destructively subtracted from the destination tile.
