Neonint16_tvmaxv_s16(int16x4_t a)Vector arithmetic / Across vector arithmetic / Maximum across vector
Description
Signed Maximum across Vector. This instruction compares all the vector elements in the source SIMD&FP register, and writes the largest of the values as a scalar to the destination SIMD&FP register. All the values in this instruction are signed integer values.
