SQADD

Signed saturating Add. This instruction adds the values of corresponding elements of the two source SIMD&FP registers, places the results into a vector, and writes the vector to the destination SIMD&FP register.

If overflow occurs with any of the results, those results are saturated. If saturation occurs, the cumulative saturation bit FPSR.QC is set.

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.

It has encodings from 2 classes: Scalar and Vector

Assembler Symbols

<V>

Is a width specifier, encoded in size:

size <V>
00 B

00 1 16B
01 0 4H
01 1 8H
10 0 2S
10 1 4S

Operation

CheckFPAdvSIMDEnabled64(); bits(datasize) operand1 = V[n, datasize]; bits(datasize) operand2 = V[m, datasize]; bits(datasize) result; integer element1; integer element2; integer sum; boolean sat; for e = 0 to elements-1 element1 = Int(Elem[operand1, e, esize], unsigned); element2 = Int(Elem[operand2, e, esize], unsigned); sum = element1 + element2; (Elem[result, e, esize], sat) = SatQ(sum, esize, unsigned); if sat then FPSR.QC = '1'; V[d, datasize] = result;
