FNEG

Floating-point negate (predicated)

Negate each active floating-point element of the source vector, and place the results in the corresponding elements of the destination vector. This inverts the sign bit and cannot signal a floating-point exception. Inactive elements in the destination vector register remain unmodified or are set to zero, depending on whether merging or zeroing predication is selected.

FNEG <Zd>.<T>, <Pg>/Z, <Zn>.<T>

Decoding algorithm

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SVE2p2) && !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME2p2) then
    EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF);

constant integer esize = 8 << UInt(size);

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled();
constant integer VL = CurrentVL;
constant integer PL = VL DIV 8;
constant integer elements = VL DIV esize;
constant bits(PL) mask = P[g, PL];
constant bits(VL) operand = if AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then Z[n, VL] else Zeros(VL);
bits(VL) result = if merging then Z[d, VL] else Zeros(VL);

for e = 0 to elements-1
    if ActivePredicateElement(mask, e, esize) then
        constant bits(esize) element = Elem[operand, e, esize];
        Elem[result, e, esize] = FPNeg(element, FPCR);

Z[d, VL] = result;

Explanations

<Zd>: Is the name of the destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zd" field.
<T>: <Pg>: Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field.
<Zn>: Is the name of the source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.

Operational Notes

The merging variant of this instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction. The MOVPRFX must conform to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of the MOVPRFX and the merging variant of this instruction is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE:

• The MOVPRFX can be predicated or unpredicated.
• A predicated MOVPRFX must use the same governing predicate register as the merging variant this instruction.
• A predicated MOVPRFX must use the larger of the destination element size and first source element size in the preferred disassembly of the merging variant of this instruction.
• The MOVPRFX must specify the same destination register as the merging variant of this instruction.
• The destination register must not refer to architectural register state referenced by any other source operand register of the merging variant of this instruction.
