      <para>Dot Product vector form with signed integers. This instruction performs the
dot product of the four 8-bit elements in each 32-bit element of the first
source register with the four 8-bit elements of the corresponding 32-bit
element in the second source register, accumulating the result into the
corresponding 32-bit element of the destination register.</para>
      <para>In Armv8.2 and Armv8.3, this is an <arm-defined-word>OPTIONAL</arm-defined-word> instruction.
From Armv8.4 it is mandatory for all implementations to support it.</para>
      <note>
        <para><xref linkend="ARMARM_AArch32.id_isar6">ID_ISAR6</xref>.DP indicates whether this instruction is supported.</para>
