SQNEG

Signed saturating negate

Negate the signed integer value in each active element of the source vector, and place the results in the corresponding elements of the destination vector. Each result element is saturated to the N-bit element's signed integer range -2(N-1) to (2(N-1) )-1. Inactive elements in the destination vector register remain unmodified.

Q

SQNEG <Zd>.<T>, <Pg>/M, <Zn>.<T>

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SVE2) && !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME) then UNDEFINED; constant integer esize = 8 << UInt(size); constant integer g = UInt(Pg); constant integer n = UInt(Zn); constant integer d = UInt(Zd);

Assembler Symbols

<Zd>

Is the name of the destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zd" field.

<T>

Is the size specifier, encoded in size:

size <T>
00 B
01 H
10 S
11 D
<Pg>

Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field.

<Zn>

Is the name of the source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.

Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); constant integer VL = CurrentVL; constant integer PL = VL DIV 8; constant integer elements = VL DIV esize; constant bits(PL) mask = P[g, PL]; constant bits(VL) operand = if AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then Z[n, VL] else Zeros(VL); bits(VL) result = Z[d, VL]; for e = 0 to elements-1 if ActivePredicateElement(mask, e, esize) then integer element = SInt(Elem[operand, e, esize]); element = -element; Elem[result, e, esize] = SignedSat(element, esize); Z[d, VL] = result;

Operational information

This instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction. The MOVPRFX must conform to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of the MOVPRFX and this instruction is constrained unpredictable:
