_mm256_broadcast_ss, _mm_broadcast_ss
Loads and broadcasts 256/128-bit scalar single-precision floating point values to a 256/128-bit destination operand. The corresponding Intel® AVX instruction is VBROADCASTSS.
Syntax
extern __m256 _mm256_broadcast_ss(float const *a); |
extern __m128 _mm_broadcast_ss(float const *a); |
Arguments
*a |
pointer to a memory location that can hold constant 256-bit or 128-bit float32 values |
Description
Loads scalar single-precision floating-point values from the specified address pointed to by a, and broadcasts it to elements in the destination vector.
The _m256_broadcast_ss intrinsic broadcasts the loaded values to all eight elements in the 256-bit destination vector.
The _mm_broadcast_ss intrinsic broadcasts the loaded values to all four elements in the 128-bit destination vector.
Returns
Result of the load and broadcast operation.
