FCVTL

Multi-vector half-precision convert to deinterleaved single-precision

This instruction converts each element of the source vector from half-precision to single-precision floating-point, and places the two-way deinterleaved results in the double-width destination elements of the destination vectors.

This instruction follows SME2 floating-point numerical behaviors corresponding to instructions that place their results in one or more SVE Z vectors.

This instruction is unpredicated.

ID_AA64SMFR0_EL1.F16F16 indicates whether this instruction is implemented.

Assembler Symbols

<Zd1>

Is the name of the first scalable vector register of the destination multi-vector group, encoded as "Zd" times 2.

<Zd2>

Is the name of the second scalable vector register of the destination multi-vector group, encoded as "Zd" times 2 plus 1.

<Zn>

Is the name of the source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.

Operation

CheckStreamingSVEEnabled(); let VL : integer{} = CurrentVL(); let pairs : integer = VL DIV 32; let operand : bits(VL) = Z{}(n); var result0 : bits(VL); var result1 : bits(VL); for p = 0 to pairs-1 do let element1 : bits(16) = operand[(2*p+0)*:16]; let element2 : bits(16) = operand[(2*p+1)*:16]; let res1 : bits(32) = FPConvertSVE{32, 16}(element1, FPCR()); let res2 : bits(32) = FPConvertSVE{32, 16}(element2, FPCR()); result0[p*:32] = res1; result1[p*:32] = res2; end; Z{VL}(d+0) = result0; Z{VL}(d+1) = result1;
