word Integers
INSTRUCTION SET REFERENCE, A-M
CVTPS2PI—Convert Packed Single-Precision Floating-Point Values to
Packed Doubleword Integers
Description
Converts two packed single-precision floating-point values in the source operand
(second operand) to two packed signed doubleword integers in the destination
operand (first operand).
The source operand can be an XMM register or a 128-bit memory location. The desti-
nation operand is an MMX technology register. When the source operand is an XMM
register, the two single-precision floating-point values are contained in the low quad-
word of the register. When a conversion is inexact, the value returned is rounded
according to the rounding control bits in the MXCSR register. If a converted result is
larger than the maximum signed doubleword integer, the floating-point invalid
exception is raised, and if this exception is masked, the indefinite integer value
(80000000H) is returned.
CVTPS2PI causes a transition from x87 FPU to MMX technology operation (that is, the
x87 FPU top-of-stack pointer is set to 0 and the x87 FPU tag word is set to all 0s
[valid]). If this instruction is executed while an x87 FPU floating-point exception is
pending, the exception is handled before the CVTPS2PI instruction is executed.
In 64-bit mode, use of the REX.R prefix permits this instruction to access additional
registers (XMM8-XMM15).

DEST[31:0] ← Convert_Single_Precision_Floating_Point_To_Integer(SRC[31:0]);
