Convert Packed Double to Packed Single

CVTPD2PS xmm1, xmm2/m128

Converts two doubles to two floats.

Details

Converts two packed double-precision floats (64-bit each) to two packed single-precision floats (32-bit each), storing the result in the lower 64 bits of the destination XMM register and zeroing the upper 64 bits. The conversion rounds according to the MXCSR rounding mode; #IA and #O (overflow) exceptions may be signaled. No flags are affected.

Pseudocode Operation

dest[0:31] ← convert_dp_to_sp(src[0:63]);
dest[32:63] ← convert_dp_to_sp(src[64:127]);
dest[64:127] ← 0;

Description

Converts two, four or eight packed double precision floating-point values in the source operand (second operand) to two, four or eight packed single precision floating-point values in the destination operand (first operand). When a conversion is inexact, the value returned is rounded according to the rounding control bits in the MXCSR register or the embedded rounding control bits. EVEX encoded versions: The source operand is a ZMM/YMM/XMM register, a 512/256/128-bit memory location, or a 512/256/128-bit vector broadcasted from a 64-bit memory location. The destination operand is a YMM/XMM/XMM (low 64-bits) register conditionally updated with writemask k1. The upper bits (MAXVL1:256/128/64) of the corresponding destination are zeroed. VEX.256 encoded version: The source operand is a YMM register or 256- bit memory location. The destination operand is an XMM register. The upper bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding ZMM register destination are zeroed. VEX.128 encoded version: The source operand is an XMM register or 128- bit memory location. The destination operand is a XMM register. The upper bits (MAXVL-1:64) of the corresponding ZMM register destination are zeroed. 128-bit Legacy SSE version: The source operand is an XMM register or 128- bit memory location. The destination operand is an XMM register. Bits[127:64] of the destination XMM register are zeroed. However, the upper Bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding ZMM register destination are unmodified. VEX.vvvv and EVEX.vvvv are reserved and must be 1111b otherwise instructions will #UD.
