SCVTF (vector, integer)

Signed integer convert to floating-point (vector)

This instruction converts each element in a vector from signed integer to floating-point using the rounding mode that is specified by the FPCR, and writes the result to the SIMD&FP destination register.

This instruction can generate a floating-point exception. Depending on the settings in FPCR, the exception results in either a flag being set in FPSR or a synchronous exception being generated. For more information, see Floating-point exceptions and exception traps.

Depending on the settings in the CPACR_EL1, CPTR_EL2, and CPTR_EL3 registers, and the current Security state and Exception level, an attempt to execute the instruction might be trapped.
