This is a collection of Intel®’ IA32® Software Developer's Manuals (URL of the day) and AMD' AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual together with the related specifications, application notes, white papers, and change logs. The collection aims to keep all available revisions. It was originally created by Michal Necasek, see OS/2 Museum.

If you have a public document, related to the IA32® specifications and missing from the collection, please mail it to me. The content of this URL and all sub-ULRs is available for convenient bulk download by rsync x86docs password "" (empty).

VCVTT

Convert to or from a half-precision value in the top half of a single-precision register does one of the following:

• Converts the half-precision value in the top half of a single-precision register to single-precision and writes the result to a single-precision register.
• Converts the half-precision value in the top half of a single-precision register to double-precision and writes the result to a double-precision register.
• Converts the single-precision value in a single-precision register to half-precision and writes the result into the top half of a single-precision register, preserving the other half of the destination register.
• Converts the double-precision value in a double-precision register to half-precision and writes the result into the top half of a single-precision register, preserving the other half of the destination register.

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 T32 ( T1 ) .

A1

Decode for all variants of this encoding

let d : integer = if sz == '1' && op == '0' then UInt(D::Vd) else UInt(Vd::D); let m : integer = if sz == '1' && op == '1' then UInt(M::Vm) else UInt(Vm::M); let uses_double : boolean = (sz == '1'); let convert_from_half : boolean = (op == '0'); let lowbit : integer{} = (if T == '1' then 16 else 0);

T1

Decode for all variants of this encoding

let d : integer = if sz == '1' && op == '0' then UInt(D::Vd) else UInt(Vd::D); let m : integer = if sz == '1' && op == '1' then UInt(M::Vm) else UInt(Vm::M); let uses_double : boolean = (sz == '1'); let convert_from_half : boolean = (op == '0'); let lowbit : integer{} = (if T == '1' then 16 else 0);
