FCHS—Change Sign

Opcode	Instruction	64-Bit Mode	Compat/Leg Mode	Description
D9 E0	FCHS	Valid	Valid	Complements sign of ST(0).

Description

Complements the sign bit of ST(0). This operation changes a positive value into a negative value of equal magni-tude or vice versa. The following table shows the results obtained when changing the sign of various classes of numbers.

Table 3-20. FCHS Results

ST(0) SRC

ST(0) DEST


− ∞	+ ∞
− F	+ F
− 0	+ 0
+ 0	− 0
+ F	− F
+ ∞	− ∞
NaN	NaN

NOTES:

F means finite floating-point value.

This instruction’s operation is the same in non-64-bit modes and 64-bit mode.

Operation

SignBit(ST(0)) := NOT (SignBit(ST(0)));

FPU Flags Affected

C1	Set to 0.
C0, C2, C3	Undefined.

Floating-Point Exceptions

#IS	Stack underflow occurred.

Protected Mode Exceptions

#NM	CR0.EM[bit 2] or CR0.TS[bit 3] = 1.
