VFNMSUB132PS computes -(op1 × op3) - op2 for each single, rounded once: the product of the destination and the operand that may come from memory, negated, minus the middle register. VFNMSUB231PS covers the doubly negated family and why it is not a VFMADD with its result negated, and VFMADD132PS the operand roles of the 132 form. The VEX forms need the FMA extension; the EVEX forms need AVX-512F (with AVX512VL below 512 bits) or AVX10.1 and add a write mask, a multiplier of one single broadcast from memory and, in the 512-bit register form, a rounding mode given in the instruction.

In our builds

At -O2 over fixed-size float arrays, GCC 14 compiles a[i] = -(b[i] * c[i]) - d[i] and a[i] = -(b[i] * c[i]) - a[i] to VFNMSUB132PS with b[i] from memory, on ymm registers for -march=x86-64-v3 and zmm for -v4, with or without -ffast-math. Clang 23 uses VFNMSUB213PS for both.

Recorded on Zen 5

vfnmsub132ps ymm4, ymm4, ymm4 computes -(x × x) - x. Under MXCSR DF80H (round up, FTZ):

  • x = +0 gave -0: the negated product, -0, minus +0 is a sum of two negative zeros;
  • x = 10^-30 gave -x itself, 8DA24260H, as rounding up drops the tiny product, where VFNMSUB231PS rounding down returned the single below;
  • x = 10^30 gave the most negative finite single, not minus infinity, since rounding up stops a negative overflow there. OE and PE were set.

AMD’s latency spreadsheet for Zen 5 gives the VEX and the EVEX rows alike a latency of 4 cycles, two per cycle on pipes FP0 and FP1.

Latency and throughput

What the scheduling models of LLVM 23.1.2 give for each form, not measurements: latency / reciprocal throughput in cycles, the ports under them. A row is a model, or models that agree; a dash, a form that its processors lack. Memory forms: latency from the address, ports without the load and store units. Which processors each model covers.

Data flow

Where the elements of the sources go, element 0 on the right; results that depend on a control value are drawn for an example. How to read.

Element-wise: each single of the result comes from the single in the same place in each source.
VFNMSUB132PS: element by elementResult single i comes from single i of xmm1, xmm2 and xmm3. Result singles 3 to 0: r3, unchanged (bit 2 of k1 is 0), r1, r0.0123xmm1a0123xmm2b0123xmm3or m128c1110k1r0r1r3xmm1

Every single works alike: 4, 8 and 16 singles in the xmm, ymm and zmm forms. The EVEX forms write under a mask: where its bit is 0, the element keeps its old value, or zeroes it with {z}. With m32bcst, one single from memory stands for every element of the last source. The sources are drawn above the result, each element in its own column.

Result single i comes from single i of xmm1, xmm2 and xmm3. Result singles 3 to 0: r3, unchanged (bit 2 of k1 is 0), r1, r0.

Operation

What the forms do, in pseudocode that our tests run against results recorded on real processors. How to read.

for i in range(VL // 32):
    if k1[i]:  # 1 without a write mask
        a = zmm1.f32[i]
        b = zmm2.f32[i]
        c = src3.f32[i]
        zmm1.f32[i] = fnmsub(a, c, b)
    elif zeroing:
        zmm1.f32[i] = 0
    # else: zmm1.f32[i] keeps its value
# m32bcst: src3.f32[i] is the m32 for every i
# {er}: the form's rounding, not MXCSR.RC, and no flags
# zmm1 is zeroed from bit VL up

Run on AMD Zen 5 (EPYC 9645): 15 cases.

CPUID and processors

Each form belongs to an XED ISA set. A form can be used when the processor reports every CPUID bit of one of its ISA set's alternatives.

CPUID requirements and processors of the XED ISA sets above. Alternatives are separated by “or”; processors follow XED’s chip model, whose AMD processors end with Zen 2, and the CPU data of this site for Zen 3 to Zen 6.
ISA setCPUIDProcessors
FMA

FMA + AVX
CPUID.01H:ECX[12] FMA
CPUID.01H:ECX[28] AVX

XED and Intel’s SDM differ: XED also asks for the AVX bit, CPUID.01H:ECX[28], besides FMA, CPUID.01H:ECX[12]. The opcode tables of revision 093 of Intel’s SDM name FMA alone for every VEX form, but its Volume 1 tells software to check for AVX first and then for FMA, so in effect the two agree.
