_mm256_round_pd
Rounds off double-precision floating point values to nearest upper/lower integer depending on rounding mode. The corresponding Intel® AVX instruction isVROUNDPD.
Syntax
extern __m256d _mm256_round_pd(__m256d a, int iRoundMode); |
Arguments
a |
float64 vector |
iRoundMode |
A hexadecimal value dependent on rounding mode:
|
Description
Rounds off the elements of a float64 vector a to the nearest upper/lower integer value. Two shortcuts, in the form of #defines, are used to achieve these two separate operations:
#define _mm256_ceil_pd(a) _mm256_round_pd((a), 0x0A)
#define _mm256_floor_pd(a) _mm256_round_pd((a), 0x09)
These #defines tell the preprocessor to replace all instances of _mm256_ceil_pd(a) with _mm256_round_pd((a), 0x0A) and all instances of _mm256_floor_pd(a) with _mm256_round_pd((a), 0x09).
For example, if you write the following:
__m256 a, b;
a = _mm256_ceil_pd(b);
the preprocessor will modify it to:
a = _mm256_round_pd(b, 0x0a);
The Precision Floating Point Exception is signaled according to the (immediate operand) iRoundMode value.
Returns
Result of the rounding off operation as a vector with double-precision floating point values.
