Floating-Point Fused Negated Multiply-Subtract (Scalar)
FNMSUB <Hd|Sd|Dd>, <Hn|Sn|Dn>, <Hm|Sm|Dm>, <Ha|Sa|Da>
Calculates -((Vn * Vm) - Va).
Details
Floating-point fused negated multiply-subtract: computes −((Vn × Vm) − Va) and stores the result in Vd as a single fused operation with a single rounding step. Supports half-precision (H), single-precision (S), and double-precision (D) floating-point formats. No condition flags are affected; exceptions may be generated for invalid operations, overflow, underflow, inexact results, or input denormals depending on FPCR settings. AArch64 only.

Description
Floating-point Negated fused Multiply-Subtract (scalar). This instruction multiplies the values of the first two SIMD&FP source registers, subtracts the value of the third SIMD&FP source register, and writes the result to the destination SIMD&FP register.
A floating-point exception can be generated by this instruction. Depending on the settings in FPCR, the exception results in either a flag being set in FPSR, or a synchronous exception being generated. For more information, see Floating-point exception traps.
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
CheckFPEnabled64(); bits(esize) operanda = V[a, esize]; bits(esize) operand1 = V[n, esize]; bits(esize) operand2 = V[m, esize]; boolean merge = IsMerging(FPCR); bits(128) result = if merge then V[a, 128] else Zeros(128); operanda = FPNeg(operanda, FPCR); Elem[result, 0, esize] = FPMulAdd(operanda, operand1, operand2, FPCR); V[d, 128] = result;
