SDOT (2-way, indexed)

Signed integer dot product by indexed element (two-way)

This instruction calculates the dot product of a pair of signed 16-bit integer values held in each 32-bit element of the first source vector multiplied by a pair of signed 16-bit integer values in an indexed 32-bit element of the second source vector, and then destructively adds the widened dot product to the corresponding 32-bit element of the destination vector.

The groups within the second source vector are specified using an immediate index that selects the same group position within each 128-bit vector segment. The index range is from 0 to 3.

This instruction is unpredicated.

Encoding

SDOT <Zda>.S, <Zn>.H, <Zm>.H[<imm>]

Decode for this encoding

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME2) && !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SVE2p1) then EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF); end; let esize : integer{} = 32; let index : integer = UInt(i2); let n : integer = UInt(Zn); let m : integer = UInt(Zm); let da : integer = UInt(Zda);

Assembler Symbols

<Zda>

Is the name of the third source and destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zda" field.

<Zn>

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

<Zm>

Is the name of the second source scalable vector register Z0-Z7, encoded in the "Zm" field.

<imm>

Is the immediate index of a pair of 16-bit elements within each 128-bit vector segment, in the range 0 to 3, encoded in the "i2" field.

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); let VL : integer{} = CurrentVL(); let elements : integer = VL DIV esize; let eltspersegment : integer = 128 DIV esize; let operand1 : bits(VL) = Z{}(n); let operand2 : bits(VL) = Z{}(m); let operand3 : bits(VL) = Z{}(da); var result : bits(VL); for e = 0 to elements-1 do let segmentbase : integer = e - (e MOD eltspersegment); let s : integer = segmentbase + index; var res : bits(esize) = operand3[e*:esize]; for i = 0 to 1 do let element1 : integer = SInt(operand1[(2 * e + i)*:(esize DIV 2)]); let element2 : integer = SInt(operand2[(2 * s + i)*:(esize DIV 2)]); res = res + element1 * element2; end; result[e*:esize] = res; end; Z{VL}(da) = result;

Operational information

This instruction is a data-independent-time instruction as described in About PSTATE.DIT.

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:
