Alpha 21264/EV67 Hardware Reference Manual
Alpha Instruction Set A–11
VAX Floating-Point Instructions
Programming Note:
In order to use CMPTxx with software completion trap handling, it is necessary to
specify the /SU IEEE trap mode, even though an underflow trap is not possible. In order
to use CVTQS or CVTQT with software completion trap handling, it is necessary to
specify the /SUI IEEE trap mode, even though an underflow trap is not possible.
A.4 VAX Floating-Point Instructions
Table A–6 lists the hexadecimal value of the 11-bit function code field for the VAX
floating-point instructions. The opcode for these instructions is 15
16
.
A.5 Independent Floating-Point Instructions
Table A–7 lists the hexadecimal value of the 11-bit function code field for the floating-
point instructions that are not directly tied to IEEE or VAX floating point. The opcode
for the following instructions is 17
16
.
