This instruction uses “Round to nearest (even)” rounding mode. Output denormals are always flushed to zero and input denormals are always treated as zero. MXCSR is not consulted nor updated. As the instruction operand encoding table shows, the EVEX.vvvv field is not used for encoding an operand. EVEX.vvvv is reserved and must be 0b1111 otherwise instructions will #UD. Operation Define convert_fp32_to_bfloat16(x): IF x is zero or denormal: dest[15] := x[31] // sign preserving zero (denormal go to zero) dest[14:0] := 0 ELSE IF x is infinity: dest[15:0] := x[31:16] ELSE IF x is NAN: dest[15:0] := x[31:16] // truncate and set MSB of the mantissa to force QNAN dest[6] := 1 ELSE // normal number LSB := x[16] rounding_bias := 0x00007FFF + LSB temp[31:0] := x[31:0] + rounding_bias // integer add dest[15:0] := temp[31:16] RETURN dest Opcode/ Instruction Op/ En 64/32 bit Mode Support CPUID Feature Flag Description EVEX.128.F3.0F38.W0 72 /r VCVTNEPS2BF16 xmm1{k1}{z}, xmm2/m128/m32bcst AV/VAVX512VL AVX512_BF16 Convert packed single data from xmm2/m128 to packed BF16 data in xmm1 with writemask k1.
