SQNEG

Signed saturating negate

This instruction reads each vector element from the source SIMD&FP register, negates each value, places the result into a vector, and writes the vector to the destination SIMD&FP register. All the values in this instruction are signed integer values.

If overflow occurs with any of the results, those results are saturated. If saturation occurs, the cumulative saturation bit FPSR.QC is set.

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.

Operation

for e = 0 to elements-1
    element = SInt(Elem[operand, e, esize]);
    element = -element;

    if sat then FPSR.QC = '1';

V[d, datasize] = result;

Explanations

<V>: <d>: Is the number of the SIMD&FP destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field.
<n>: Is the number of the SIMD&FP source register, encoded in the "Rn" field.
<Vd>: Is the name of the SIMD&FP destination register, encoded in the "Rd" field.
<T>: <Vn>: Is the name of the SIMD&FP source register, encoded in the "Rn" field.
