SMIN (multiple vectors)

Multi-vector signed minimum

This instruction determines the signed minimum of elements of the two or four second source vectors and the corresponding elements of the two or four first source vectors and destructively places the results in the corresponding elements of the two or four first source vectors.

This instruction is unpredicated.

It has encodings from 2 classes: Two registers and Four registers

Assembler Symbols

<Zdn1>

For the "Two registers" variant: is the name of the first scalable vector register of the destination and first source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zdn" times 2.

For the "Four registers" variant: is the name of the first scalable vector register of the destination and first source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zdn" times 4.

<T>

Is the size specifier, encoded in size:

size <T>
00 B
01 H
10 S
11 D
<Zdn2>

Is the name of the second scalable vector register of the destination and first source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zdn" times 2 plus 1.

<Zm1>

For the "Two registers" variant: is the name of the first scalable vector register of the second source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zm" times 2.

For the "Four registers" variant: is the name of the first scalable vector register of the second source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zm" times 4.

<Zm2>

Is the name of the second scalable vector register of the second source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zm" times 2 plus 1.

<Zdn4>

Is the name of the fourth scalable vector register of the destination and first source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zdn" times 4 plus 3.

<Zm4>

Is the name of the fourth scalable vector register of the second source multi-vector group, encoded as "Zm" times 4 plus 3.
