v_mad_i16 GPU Native ISA AMD Vector

Vector Arithmetic

v_mad_i16

Multiply two signed 16-bit integer inputs, add a signed 16-bit integer value from a third input, and store the result into a vector register.

The ENC_VOP3 layout from AMD's machine-readable ISA specification (AMD CDNA 5). Opcode 595 in OP rebuilds 0x00000000D6530000, an identifier AMD lists for this encoding. Not the same in every generation: AMD CDNA 4 (opcode 517, field layout), AMD CDNA 3 (opcode 517, field layout), AMD CDNA 2 (opcode 517, field layout), AMD CDNA 1 (opcode 517, field layout), AMD RDNA 3.5 (field layout), AMD RDNA 3 (field layout), AMD RDNA 2 (opcode 862, field layout), AMD RDNA 1 (opcode 862, field layout). The same in AMD RDNA 4.

Operands

  • VDST
    Written. Operand must be a vector GPR. Uses an 8-bit operand field. Data format: Signed 16-bit integral data. (OPR_VGPR, FMT_NUM_I16)
  • SRC0
    Read. All operands. Covers all operands that are allowed as scalar or vector sources. Data format: Signed 16-bit integral data. (OPR_SRC, FMT_NUM_I16)
  • SRC1
    Read. All operands. Covers all operands that are allowed as scalar or vector sources. Data format: Signed 16-bit integral data. (OPR_SRC, FMT_NUM_I16)
  • SRC2
    Read. All operands. Covers all operands that are allowed as scalar or vector sources. Data format: Signed 16-bit integral data. (OPR_SRC, FMT_NUM_I16)

In AMD's order, as its machine-readable ISA specification lists them for the ENC_VOP3 encoding (AMD CDNA 5).

GFX Target Compatibility

TargetSupport
gfx1100✅ Supported

Supports saturation (signed 16-bit integer domain). If OPSEL[3] is 0 the result is written to 16 LSBs of destination VGPR and the high 16 bits are preserved. If OPSEL[3] is 1 the result is written to 16 MSBs of destination VGPR and the low 16 bits are preserved.
