v_cvt_scalef32_f32_fp8

Convert from an FP8 float input to a single-precision float value, then scale the value using the exponent provided by the second single-precision…

Also written as v_cvt_scale_f32_fp8. AMD's machine-readable ISA specification lists this name for the same instruction.

Description

Convert from an FP8 float input to a single-precision float value, then scale the value using the exponent provided by the second single-precision float input. Store the result into a vector register. The value to convert is loaded from 8 bits of the input using OPSEL[1:0] to determine which byte to read.
