VMULSH—Multiply Scalar FP16 Values

Opcode/Instruction Op/En 64/32 bit Mode Support CPUID Feature Flag Description
EVEX.LLIG.F3.MAP5.W0 59 /r VMULSH xmm1{k1}{z}, xmm2, xmm3/m16 {er} A V/V AVX512-FP16 Multiply the low FP16 value in xmm3/m16 by low FP16 value in xmm2, and store the result in xmm1 subject to writemask k1. Bits 127:16 of xmm2 are copied to xmm1[127:16].

Description

This instruction multiplies the low FP16 value from the source operands and stores the FP16 result in the destina-tion operand. Bits 127:16 of the destination operand are copied from the corresponding bits of the first source operand. Bits MAXVL-1:128 of the destination operand are zeroed. The low FP16 element of the destination is updated according to the writemask.

Operation

VMULSH (EVEX encoded versions)

IF EVEX.b = 1 and SRC2 is a register:

SET_RM(EVEX.RC)

ELSE

SET_RM(MXCSR.RC)

IF k1[0] OR *no writemask*:

DEST.fp16[0] := SRC1.fp16[0] * SRC2.fp16[0]

ELSE IF *zeroing*:

DEST.fp16[0] := 0

// else dest.fp16[0] remains unchanged

DEST[127:16] := SRC1[127:16]

DEST[MAXVL-1:VL] := 0
