Description

This instruction loads packed BF16 elements from memory, converts the even elements to FP32, and writes the result to the destination SIMD register.

This instruction does not generate floating-point exceptions and does not consult or update MXCSR.

Since any BF16 number can be represented in FP32, the conversion result is exact and no rounding is needed.

Operation

VCVTNEEBF162PS dest, src (VEX encoded version)

VL = (128, 256)
KL = VL/32
FOR i in range(0, KL):
    dest.dword[i] = make_fp32(src.dword[i].word[0])

Flags Affected

None.

Intel C/C++ Compiler Intrinsic Equivalent

VCVTNEEBF162PS __m256 _mm256_cvtneebf16_ps (const __m256bh* __A);

SIMD Floating-Point Exceptions

None.
