__lsx_vsigncov_b

LSX intrinsic · group: Misc

Synopsis

__m128i __lsx_vsigncov_b (__m128i a, __m128i b)
#include <lsxintrin.h>
Instruction: vsigncov.b vr, vr, vr
CPU Flags: LSX

Description

If the 8-bit element in a equals to zero, set the result to zero. If the signed 8-bit element in a is positive, copy element in b to result. Otherwise, copy negated element in b to result. If a and b are the same vectors, it is equivalent to computing absolute value.

Operation

for (int i = 0; i < 16; i++) {
  dst.byte[i] =
      (a.byte[i] == 0) ? 0 : ((s8)a.byte[i] > 0 ? b.byte[i] : -b.byte[i]);
}

Tested on real machine.
