Purpose:

Vector Floating-Point Quiet Compare Unordered or Less or Equal

Vector to vector floating-point quiet compare for unordered or less than or equal; if true all destination bits are set, otherwise clear.

Description:

wd[i] = (ws[i] <=?(quiet) wt[i])

Set all bits to 1 in wd elements if the corresponding ws floating-point elements are unordered or less than or equal to wt floating-point elements, otherwise set all bits to 0.

The quiet compare operation is defined by the IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic 754^TM-2008.

The Inexact Exception is not signaled when subnormal input operands are flushed based on the flush-to-zero bit FS in

MSA Control and Status Register MSACSR. In case of a floating-point exception, the default result has all bits set to

1.

The operands are values in floating-point data format df. The results are values in integer data format df.

Restrictions:

Data-dependent exceptions are poss ible as s pecified by the I EEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic 754^TM

2008.

Operation:

      WR[wd]32i+31..32i = (c | d | e)32
