VMUL (floating-point)
Vector Multiply (floating-point)
Vector Multiply multiplies corresponding elements in two vectors,
and places the results in the destination vector.
Depending on settings in the CPACR,
NSACR,
HCPTR, and
FPEXC registers, and the Security
state and PE mode in which the instruction is executed, an attempt to
execute the instruction might be UNDEFINED, or
trapped to Hyp mode.
For more information see Enabling Advanced
SIMD and floating-point support.
It has encodings from the following instruction sets:
A32 (
A1
and
A2
)
and
T32 (
T1
and
T2
)
.

The instruction executes as if it passes the Condition code check.
The instruction executes as NOP. This means it behaves as if it fails the Condition code check.
