BFMLALB (indexed)

BFloat16 multiply-add by indexed element to single-precision (bottom)

This instruction widens the even-numbered BFloat16 elements in the first source vector and the indexed element from the corresponding 128-bit segment in the second source vector to single-precision format and then destructively multiplies and adds these values without intermediate rounding to the single-precision elements of the destination vector that overlap with the corresponding BFloat16 elements in the first source vector. This instruction is unpredicated.

ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1.BF16 indicates whether this instruction is implemented.

Assembler Symbols

<Zda>

Is the name of the third source and destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zda" field.

<Zn>

Is the name of the first source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.

<Zm>

Is the name of the second source scalable vector register Z0-Z7, encoded in the "Zm" field.

<imm>

Is the immediate index, in the range 0 to 7, encoded in the "i3h:i3l" fields.

Operational information

This instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction. The MOVPRFX must conform to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of the MOVPRFX and this instruction is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE:
