Divide Packed Single-Precision

DIVPS xmm, xmm/m128

Divides four 32-bit floats.

Details

Divides four 32-bit single-precision floating-point values in the destination XMM register by the four 32-bit single-precision values in the source operand, storing all four quotients in the destination. Operates on packed values in parallel and respects IEEE 754 rounding modes controlled by MXCSR; division by zero produces infinity or NaN according to IEEE 754 rules.

Pseudocode Operation

dest[31:0] ← dest[31:0] / src[31:0];
dest[63:32] ← dest[63:32] / src[63:32];
dest[95:64] ← dest[95:64] / src[95:64];
dest[127:96] ← dest[127:96] / src[127:96];

Description

Performs a SIMD divide of the four, eight or sixteen packed single precision floating-point values in the first source operand (the second operand) by the four, eight or sixteen packed single precision floating-point values in the second source operand (the third operand). Results are written to the destination operand (the first operand). EVEX encoded versions: The first source operand (the second operand) is a ZMM/YMM/XMM register. The second source operand can be a ZMM/YMM/XMM register, a 512/256/128-bit memory location or a 512/256/128-bit vector broadcasted from a 32-bit memory location. The destination operand is a ZMM/YMM/XMM register conditionally updated with writemask k1. VEX.256 encoded version: The first source operand is a YMM register. The second source operand can be a YMM register or a 256-bit memory location. The destination operand is a YMM register. VEX.128 encoded version: The first source operand is a XMM register. The second source operand can be a XMM register or a 128-bit memory location. The destination operand is a XMM register. The upper bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding ZMM register destination are zeroed. 128-bit Legacy SSE version: The second source can be an XMM register or an 128-bit memory location. The destination is not distinct from the first source XMM register and the upper bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding ZMM register destination are unmodified.
