Floating-point minimum number pairwise
This instruction calculates the minimum value of each pair of adjacent floating-point elements within each source vector, and interleaves the results from corresponding lanes. The interleaved result values are destructively placed in the first source vector.
Regardless of the value of FPCR.AH, the behavior is as follows for each pairwise operation:
| 31 | 30 | 29 | 28 | 27 | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | size | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | Pg | Zm | Zdn | |||||||||||
| opc | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| <Zdn> |
Is the name of the first source and destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zdn" field. |

| <Pg> |
Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field. |
| <Zm> |
Is the name of the second source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zm" field. |

This instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction. The MOVPRFX must conform to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of the MOVPRFX and this instruction is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE:
