The ENC_VOP1 layout from AMD's machine-readable ISA specification (AMD CDNA 5). Opcode 96 in OP rebuilds 0x7E00C000, an identifier AMD lists for this encoding. Bits marked unassigned have no field in the specification. Not the same in every generation: AMD CDNA 4 (opcode 73, field layout), AMD CDNA 3 (opcode 73, field layout), AMD CDNA 2 (opcode 73, field layout), AMD CDNA 1 (opcode 73, field layout), AMD RDNA 3.5 (field layout), AMD RDNA 3 (field layout), AMD RDNA 2 (field layout), AMD RDNA 1 (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: 16-bit half-precision floating point value. (OPR_VGPR, FMT_NUM_F16)
  • SRC0
    Read. All operands. Covers all operands that are allowed as scalar or vector sources. Data format: 16-bit half-precision floating point value. (OPR_SRC, FMT_NUM_F16)

In AMD's order, as its machine-readable ISA specification lists them for the ENC_VOP1 encoding (AMD CDNA 5).

Description

Calculate the trigonometric sine of a half-precision float value using IEEE rules and store the result into a vector register. The operand is calculated by scaling the vector input by 2 PI.

Semantics

D0.f16 = sin(S0.f16 * 16'F(PI * 2.0))

Example

V_SIN_F16(0xfc00) => 0xfe00     // sin(-INF) = NAN
V_SIN_F16(0xfbff) => 0x0000     // Most negative finite FP16
V_SIN_F16(0x8000) => 0x8000     // sin(-0.0) = -0
V_SIN_F16(0x3400) => 0x3c00     // sin(0.25) = 1
