Description
This instruction rounds the FP16 values in the source operand by the rounding mode specified in the immediate operand (see Table 5-22) and places the result in the destination operand. The destination operand is conditionally updated according to the writemask.
The rounding process rounds the input to an integral value, plus number bits of fraction that are specified by imm8[7:4] (to be included in the result), and returns the result as an FP16 value.
Note that no overflow is induced while executing this instruction (although the source is scaled by the imm8[7:4] value).
The immediate operand also specifies control fields for the rounding operation. Three bit fields are defined and shown in Table 5-22, “Imm8 Controls for VRNDSCALEPH/VRNDSCALESH.” Bit 3 of the immediate byte controls the processor behavior for a precision exception, bit 2 selects the source of rounding mode control, and bits 1:0 specify a non-sticky rounding-mode value.
The Precision Floating-Point Exception is signaled according to the immediate operand. If any source operand is an SNaN then it will be converted to a QNaN.
The sign of the result of this instruction is preserved, including the sign of zero. Special cases are described in Table 5-23.
The formula of the operation on each data element for VRNDSCALEPH is
ROUND(x) = 2−M *Round_to_INT(x * 2M, round_ctrl),
round_ctrl = imm[3:0];
M=imm[7:4];
The operation of x * 2M is computed as if the exponent range is unlimited (i.e., no overflow ever occurs).
If this instruction encoding’s SPE bit (bit 3) in the immediate operand is 1, VRNDSCALEPH can set MXCSR.UE without MXCSR.PE.
EVEX.vvvv is reserved and must be 1111b, otherwise instructions will #UD.
