FNMSB

Floating-point negated fused multiply-subtract to multiplicand (predicated)

This instruction multiplies the corresponding active floating-point elements of the first and second source vectors and subtracts the result from elements of the third (addend) vector without intermediate rounding. The negated results are destructively placed in the destination and first source (multiplicand) vector. Inactive elements in the destination vector register remain unmodified.

Decode

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SVE) && !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME) then EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF); if size == '00' then EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF); constant integer esize = 8 << UInt(size); constant integer g = UInt(Pg); constant integer dn = UInt(Zdn); constant integer m = UInt(Zm); constant integer a = UInt(Za); constant boolean op1_neg = FALSE; constant boolean op3_neg = TRUE;

Assembler Symbols

<Zdn>

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

<T>

Is the size specifier, encoded in size:

size <T>
00 RESERVED
01 H
10 S
11 D
<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.

<Za>

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

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); constant integer VL = CurrentVL; constant integer PL = VL DIV 8; constant integer elements = VL DIV esize; constant bits(PL) mask = P[g, PL]; constant bits(VL) op1 = Z[dn, VL]; constant bits(VL) op2 = if AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then Z[m, VL] else Zeros(VL); constant bits(VL) op3 = if AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then Z[a, VL] else Zeros(VL); bits(VL) result; for e = 0 to elements-1 if ActivePredicateElement(mask, e, esize) then constant bits(esize) elem1 = (if op1_neg then FPNeg(Elem[op1, e, esize], FPCR) else Elem[op1, e, esize]); constant bits(esize) elem2 = Elem[op2, e, esize]; constant bits(esize) elem3 = (if op3_neg then FPNeg(Elem[op3, e, esize], FPCR) else Elem[op3, e, esize]); Elem[result, e, esize] = FPMulAdd(elem3, elem1, elem2, FPCR); else Elem[result, e, esize] = Elem[op1, e, esize]; Z[dn, VL] = result;

Operational information

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:
