__lasx_xvaddwev_w_h

LASX intrinsic · group: Integer Computation

Synopsis

__m256i __lasx_xvaddwev_w_h (__m256i a, __m256i b)
#include <lasxintrin.h>
Instruction: xvaddwev.w.h xr, xr, xr
CPU Flags: LASX

Description

Add the even-positioned signed 16-bit elements in a and the corresponding signed 16-bit elements in b, extending both to 32-bit, and save the 32-bit result in dst.

Operation

for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
  dst.word[i] = (s32)(s16)a.half[2 * i] + (s32)(s16)b.half[2 * i];
}

// Expands to:

if (0) {
  dst.word[0] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[0])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[0]));
  dst.word[1] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[2])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[2]));
  dst.word[2] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[4])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[4]));
  dst.word[3] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[6])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[6]));
  dst.word[4] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[8])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[8]));
  dst.word[5] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[10])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[10]));
  dst.word[6] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[12])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[12]));
  dst.word[7] = ((s32)((s16)a.half[14])) + ((s32)((s16)b.half[14]));
}
