Description

Performs a SIMD compare of the packed double precision floating-point values in the second source operand and the first source operand and returns the result of the comparison to the destination operand. The comparison pred-icate operand (immediate byte) specifies the type of comparison performed on each pair of packed values in the two source operands.

EVEX encoded versions: The first source operand (second operand) is a ZMM/YMM/XMM register. The second source operand can be a ZMM/YMM/XMM register, a 512/256/128-bit memory location or a 512/256/128-bit vector broadcasted from a 64-bit memory location. The destination operand (first operand) is an opmask register. Comparison results are written to the destination operand under the writemask k2. Each comparison result is a single mask bit of 1 (comparison true) or 0 (comparison false).

VEX.256 encoded version: The first source operand (second operand) is a YMM register. The second source operand (third operand) can be a YMM register or a 256-bit memory location. The destination operand (first operand) is a YMM register. Four comparisons are performed with results written to the destination operand. The result of each comparison is a quadword mask of all 1s (comparison true) or all 0s (comparison false).

128-bit Legacy SSE version: The first source and destination operand (first operand) is an XMM register. The second source operand (second operand) can be an XMM register or 128-bit memory location. Bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding ZMM destination register remain unchanged. Two comparisons are performed with results written to bits 127:0 of the destination operand. The result of each comparison is a quadword mask of all 1s (comparison true) or all 0s (comparison false).

VEX.128 encoded version: The first source operand (second operand) is an XMM register. The second source operand (third operand) can be an XMM register or a 128-bit memory location. Bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the destina-tion ZMM register are zeroed. Two comparisons are performed with results written to bits 127:0 of the destination operand.

The comparison predicate operand is an 8-bit immediate:

NOTES: 1. If either operand A or B is a NAN.

The unordered relationship is true when at least one of the two source operands being compared is a NaN; the ordered relationship is true when neither source operand is a NaN.

A subsequent computational instruction that uses the mask result in the destination operand as an input operand will not generate an exception, because a mask of all 0s corresponds to a floating-point value of +0.0 and a mask of all 1s corresponds to a QNaN.

Note that processors with “CPUID.1H:ECX.AVX =0” do not implement the “greater-than”, “greater-than-or-equal”, “not-greater than”, and “not-greater-than-or-equal relations” predicates. These comparisons can be made either by using the inverse relationship (that is, use the “not-less-than-or-equal” to make a “greater-than” comparison) or by using software emulation. When using software emulation, the program must swap the operands (copying registers when necessary to protect the data that will now be in the destination), and then perform the compare using a different predicate. The predicate to be used for these emulations is listed in the first 8 rows of Table 3-7 (Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual Volume 2A) under the heading Emulation.

Compilers and assemblers may implement the following two-operand pseudo-ops in addition to the three-operand CMPPD instruction, for processors with “CPUID.1H:ECX.AVX =0”. See Table 3-2. The compiler should treat reserved imm8 values as illegal syntax.

Table 3-2. Pseudo-Op and CMPPD Implementation

:

Pseudo-Op CMPPD Implementation
CMPEQPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 0
CMPLTPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 1
CMPLEPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 2
CMPUNORDPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 3
CMPNEQPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 4
CMPNLTPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 5
CMPNLEPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 6
CMPORDPD xmm1, xmm2 CMPPD xmm1, xmm2, 7

The greater-than relations that the processor does not implement require more than one instruction to emulate in software and therefore should not be implemented as pseudo-ops. (For these, the programmer should reverse the operands of the corresponding less than relations and use move instructions to ensure that the mask is moved to the correct destination register and that the source operand is left intact.)

Processors with “CPUID.1H:ECX.AVX =1” implement the full complement of 32 predicates shown in Table 3-3, soft-ware emulation is no longer needed. Compilers and assemblers may implement the following three-operand pseudo-ops in addition to the four-operand VCMPPD instruction. See Table 3-3, where the notations of reg1 reg2, and reg3 represent either XMM registers or YMM registers. The compiler should treat reserved imm8 values as

illegal syntax. Alternately, intrinsics can map the pseudo-ops to pre-defined constants to support a simpler intrinsic interface. Compilers and assemblers may implement three-operand pseudo-ops for EVEX encoded VCMPPD instructions in a similar fashion by extending the syntax listed in Table 3-3.
