SQCVTU (two registers)

Multi-vector signed saturating unsigned extract narrow

This instruction saturates the signed integer value in each element of the two source vectors to unsigned integer value that is half the original source element width, and places the results in the half-width destination elements.

This instruction is unpredicated.

Encoding: SME2

Variants: FEAT_SME2 (ARMv9.3)

Decoding algorithm

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME2) then EndOfDecode(Decode_UNDEF);
constant integer esize = 16;
constant integer n = UInt(Zn:'0');
constant integer d = UInt(Zd);

Operation

CheckStreamingSVEEnabled();
constant integer VL = CurrentVL;
constant integer elements = VL DIV (2 * esize);
bits(VL) result;

for r = 0 to 1
    constant bits(VL) operand = Z[n+r, VL];
    for e = 0 to elements-1
        constant integer element = SInt(Elem[operand, e, 2 * esize]);
        Elem[result, r*elements + e, esize] = UnsignedSat(element, esize);

Z[d, VL] = result;

Explanations

<Zd>: Is the name of the destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zd" field.
<Zn1>: Is the name of the first scalable vector register of the source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zn" times 2.
<Zn2>: Is the name of the second scalable vector register of the source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zn" times 2 plus 1.
