SCVTF

Signed integer convert to floating-point (predicated).

Convert to floating-point from the signed integer in each active element of the source vector, and place the results in the corresponding elements of the destination vector. Inactive elements in the destination vector register remain unmodified.

If the input and result types have a different size the smaller type is held unpacked in the least significant bits of elements of the larger size. When the input is the smaller type the upper bits of each source element are ignored. When the result is the smaller type the upper bits of each destination element are set to zero.

It has encodings from 7 classes: 16-bit to half-precision , 32-bit to half-precision , 32-bit to single-precision , 32-bit to double-precision , 64-bit to half-precision , 64-bit to single-precision and 64-bit to double-precision

bits(VL) operand  = Z[n];
bits(VL) result = Z[d];

for e = 0 to elements-1
    bits(esize) element = Elem[operand, e, esize];
    if ElemP[mask, e, esize] == '1' then
        bits(d_esize) fpval = FixedToFP(element<s_esize-1:0>, 0, unsigned, FPCR, rounding);

Operational information

This instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction that conforms to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of either or both instructions is unpredictable:

• The MOVPRFX instruction must specify the same destination register as this instruction.
• The destination register must not refer to architectural register state referenced by any other source operand register of this instruction.

• An unpredicated MOVPRFX instruction.
• A predicated MOVPRFX instruction using the same governing predicate register and source element size as this instruction.
