Horizontal Add Packed Single-Precision

HADDPS xmm1, xmm2/m128

Adds adjacent float elements horizontally.

Details

Adds adjacent pairs of single-precision floating-point values horizontally within 128-bit XMM registers. The instruction pairs elements from the destination and source operands, computing the sum of adjacent elements and storing results in the destination. No CPU flags are affected by this instruction.

Pseudocode Operation

dest[0:31] ← dest[0:31] + dest[32:63]
dest[32:63] ← src[0:31] + src[32:63]
dest[64:95] ← dest[64:95] + dest[96:127]
dest[96:127] ← src[64:65] + src[96:127]

Description

Adds the single precision floating-point values in the first and second dwords of the destination operand and stores the result in the first dword of the destination operand. Adds single precision floating-point values in the third and fourth dword of the destination operand and stores the result in the second dword of the destination operand. Adds single precision floating-point values in the first and second dword of the source operand and stores the result in the third dword of the destination operand. Adds single precision floating-point values in the third and fourth dword of the source operand and stores the result in the fourth dword of the destination operand. In 64-bit mode, use of the REX.R prefix permits this instruction to access additional registers (XMM8-XMM15).

VHADDPS Operation 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 YMM register destination are unmodified. VEX.128 encoded version: the first source operand is an XMM register or 128-bit memory location. The destination operand is an XMM register. The upper bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding YMM register destination are zeroed. 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. HADDPS—Packed Single Precision Floating-Point Horizontal Add Vol. 2A 3-437

Exceptions
When the source operand is a memory operand, the operand must be aligned on a 16-byte boundary or a general-
protection exception (#GP) will be generated.
