Perform Reduction Transformation Packed Single

VREDUCEPS zmm1 {k1}, zmm2/m512, imm8

Performs reduction on floats (e.g. range reduction for trig).

Details

Performs reduction transformations (e.g., range reduction for trigonometric functions) on packed single-precision floats. The imm8 operand selects the reduction mode and rounding behavior. The transformed values are written to the destination with masking controlled by opmask k1; no arithmetic flags are affected.

Pseudocode Operation

for i in 0 to 15:
  if k1[i] == 1 or k1_merge_mode == 0:
    result ← apply_reduction(src.f32[i], imm8[2:0])
    dest.f32[i] ← result_with_rounding(result, imm8[7:4])
  else:
    dest.f32[i] ← 0

Description

Perform reduction transformation of the packed binary encoded single precision floating-point values in the source operand (the second operand) and store the reduced results in binary floating-point format to the destination operand (the first operand) under the writemask k1. The reduction transformation subtracts the integer part and the leading M fractional bits from the binary floatingpoint source value, where M is a unsigned integer specified by imm8[7:4], see Figure 5-28. Specifically, the reduction transformation can be expressed as: dest = src – (ROUND(2M*src))*2-M; where “Round()” treats “src”, “2M”, and their product as binary floating-point numbers with normalized significand and biased exponents. The magnitude of the reduced result can be expressed by considering src= 2p*man2, where ‘man2’ is the normalized significand and ‘p’ is the unbiased exponent Then if RC = RNE: 0<=|Reduced Result|<=2p-M-1 Then if RC ≠ RNE: 0<=|Reduced Result|<2p-M This instruction might end up with a precision exception set. However, in case of SPE set (i.e., Suppress Precision Exception, which is imm8[3]=1), no precision exception is reported. EVEX.vvvv is reserved and must be 1111b otherwise instructions will #UD. Handling of special case of input values are listed in Table 5-27. VREDUCEPS—Perform Reduction Transformation on Packed Float32 Values Vol. 2C 5-691
