smull
Signed Multiply Long
SMULL <Vd>.<Td>, <Vn>.<Ts>, <Vm>.<Ts>
Multiplies signed narrow vectors, producing wider result.
Details
Multiplies corresponding signed elements of two narrow SIMD vectors and places the results in a wider vector, with sign-extension of operands. This is an AArch64-only NEON instruction that operates on integer element types (8, 16, or 32 bits) and produces results twice the width. Condition flags are not affected.
Pseudocode Operation
for i = 0 to (128 >> (size+1)) - 1 do
op1 ← SignExtend(Vn[i], element_width)
op2 ← SignExtend(Vm[i], element_width)
Vd[i] ← op1 * op2
end for

Description
Signed Multiply Long (vector). This instruction multiplies corresponding signed integer values in the lower or upper half of the vectors of the two source SIMD&FP registers, places the results in a vector, and writes the vector to the destination SIMD&FP register.
The destination vector elements are twice as long as the elements that are multiplied.
The SMULL instruction extracts each source vector from the lower half of each source register. The SMULL2 instruction extracts each source vector from the upper half of each source register.
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
CheckFPAdvSIMDEnabled64();
bits(datasize) operand1 = Vpart[n, part, datasize];
bits(datasize) operand2 = Vpart[m, part, datasize];
bits(2*datasize) result;
integer element1;
integer element2;
for e = 0 to elements-1
element1 = Int(Elem[operand1, e, esize], unsigned);
element2 = Int(Elem[operand2, e, esize], unsigned);
Elem[result, e, 2*esize] = (element1*element2)<2*esize-1:0>;
V[d, 2*datasize] = result;
