Operand encoding

Each mode is a value of the Op/En column above. It says which field of the encoded instruction carries each operand, in the order they are written, and whether the instruction reads it, writes it or both.

A

  1. modrm.reg escrituraModRM byte, reg field (bits 5-3)
  2. modrm.rm lecturaModRM byte, r/m field (bits 2-0); with the SIB byte and the displacement when the mod field asks for them

Description

This instruction loads packed FP16 elements from memory, converts the odd elements to FP32, and writes the result to the destination SIMD register.

This instruction does not generate floating-point exceptions and does not consult or update MXCSR.

Input FP16 denormals are converted to normal FP32 numbers and not treated as zero. Since any FP16 number can be represented in FP32, the conversion result is exact and no rounding is needed.

Operation

VCVTNEOPH2PS dest, src (VEX encoded version)
VL = (128, 256)
KL = VL/32

FOR i in range(0, KL):
    dest.dword[i] = convert_fp16_to_fp32(src.dword[i].word[1]) //SAE

DEST[MAXVL-1:VL] := 0

Flags affected

None.
