_mm256_round_ps
Rounds off single-precision floating point values to nearest upper/lower integer depending on rounding mode. The corresponding Intel® AVX instruction isVROUNDPS.
Syntax
extern __m256 _mm256_round_ps(__m256 a, int iRoundMode ); |
Arguments
a |
float32 vector |
iRoundMode |
A hexadecimal value dependent on rounding mode:
|
Description
Rounds off the elements of a float32 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_ps(a) _mm256_round_ps((a), 0x0A) #define _mm256_floor_ps(a) _mm256_round_ps((a), 0x09)
These #defines tells the preprocessor to replace all instances of _mm256_ceil_ps(a) with _mm256_round_ps((a), 0x0A) and all instances of _mm256_floor_ps(a) with _mm256_round_ps((a), 0x09).
For example, if you write the following:
__m256 a, b; a = _mm256_ceil_ps(b);
the preprocessor will modify it to:
a = _mm256_round_ps(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 single-precision floating point values.
