__lsx_vsubwod_h_b

LSX intrinsic · group: Integer Computation

Synopsis

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

Description

Subtract the odd-positioned signed 8-bit elements in b from the corresponding elements in a, extending both to 16-bit, and save the 16-bit result in dst.

Operation

for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
  dst.half[i] = (s16)(s8)a.byte[2 * i + 1] - (s16)(s8)b.byte[2 * i + 1];
}

// Expands to:

if (0) {
  dst.half[0] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[1])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[1]));
  dst.half[1] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[3])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[3]));
  dst.half[2] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[5])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[5]));
  dst.half[3] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[7])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[7]));
  dst.half[4] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[9])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[9]));
  dst.half[5] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[11])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[11]));
  dst.half[6] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[13])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[13]));
  dst.half[7] = ((s16)((s8)a.byte[15])) - ((s16)((s8)b.byte[15]));
}
