VGETMANTSD returns the significand of the low double of its second source, scaled into the interval that the immediate picks, and copies bits 127:64 from the first source. It is the scalar form of VGETMANTPD. VGETMANTPS has the table of the immediate’s two fields: bits 1:0 choose [1, 2), [1/2, 2), [1/2, 1) or [3/4, 3/2), and bits 3:2 keep the sign, clear it or turn negative inputs into the default NaN. That page also lists the special inputs: zero and infinity give 1.0 with their sign. With VGETEXPSD, which returns the exponent, it splits a double as frexp does, and VGETMANTSS is the single-precision form. The EVEX encoding adds a write mask on the one element and {sae}.

Recorded on Zen 5

  • Interval 0. With the immediate 0, -2^31 gave -1.0: the significand in [1, 2) with the input’s sign. Bits 127:64 came from XMM8, the first source.
  • Masked off with zeroing. With bit 0 of K1 clear, the low double became zero and the upper one still came from the first source.

In compiled code

At -O2 with -march=x86-64-v4, GCC 14 and Clang 23 call the library for frexp even with -ffast-math. _mm_getmant_sd(a, b, interval, sign) compiles to VGETMANTSD with the two enums combined into the immediate, _MM_MANT_NORM_1_2 with _MM_MANT_SIGN_src giving 0.

AMD’s Zen 5 latency spreadsheet gives one macro-op and 3 cycles, on pipes FP2 and FP3.

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.

Scalar: only the low double is computed; the other double comes from xmm2.
VGETMANTSD: the low elementResult double 0 is computed from double 0 of xmm3; double 1 is that of xmm2. Result doubles 1 to 0: a1, r0.01xmm2a1k1r0a1xmm101xmm3or m64b

The write mask k1 applies to the low double: with bit 0 clear it keeps its old value, or is zeroed with {z}.

Result double 0 is computed from double 0 of xmm3; double 1 is that of xmm2. Result doubles 1 to 0: a1, r0.

Operation

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

if k1[0]:
    xmm1.f64[0] = getmant(src3.f64[0], imm8)
elif zeroing:
    xmm1.f64[0] = 0
# else: xmm1.f64[0] keeps its value
xmm1.q[1] = xmm2.q[1]
# {sae}: no exception flags
# imm8[1:0]: [1, 2), [1/2, 2), [1/2, 1), [3/4, 3/2); bit 2: no sign; bit 3: negative gives NaN
# xmm1 is zeroed from bit 128 up

Run on AMD Zen 5 (EPYC 9645): 3 cases.

Operands

What each form reads and writes, as Intel XED records it: the operands of its syntax, in order, and the implicit ones that the syntax does not name. How to read.

Intrinsics

The C intrinsics of Clang 23.1.2 that compile to VGETMANTSD, each with the form it compiles to and the Clang options it needs. The forms come from compiling every intrinsic and decoding the result with Intel XED; all intrinsics A–Z explains the method.

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.
