3-36 Vol. 2A ADDPS—Add Packed Single-Precision Floating-Point Values
INSTRUCTION SET REFERENCE, A-M
ADDPS—Add Packed Single-Precision Floating-Point Values
Description
Performs a SIMD add of the four packed single-precision floating-point values from
the source operand (second operand) and the destination operand (first operand),
and stores the packed single-precision floating-point results in the destination
operand.
The source operand can be an XMM register or a 128-bit memory location. The desti-
nation operand is an XMM register. See Chapter 10 in the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Archi-
tectures Software Developer’s Manual, Volume 1, for an overview of SIMD single-
precision floating-point operation.
In 64-bit mode, using a REX prefix in the form of REX.R permits this instruction to
access additional registers (XMM8-XMM15).
Operation
DEST[31:0] DEST[31:0] + SRC[31:0];
DEST[63:32] DEST[63:32]
+ SRC[63:32];
DEST[95:64] DEST[95:64]
+ SRC[95:64];
DEST[127:96] DEST[127:96]
+ SRC[127:96];
Intel C/C++ Compiler Intrinsic Equivalent
ADDPS __m128 _mm_add_ps(__m128 a, __m128 b)
SIMD Floating-Point Exceptions
Overflow, Underflow, Invalid, Precision, Denormal.
Protected Mode Exceptions
#GP(0) For an illegal memory operand effective address in the CS, DS,
ES, FS or GS segments.
If a memory operand is not aligned on a 16-byte boundary,
regardless of segment.
#SS(0) For an illegal address in the SS segment.
#PF(fault-code) For a page fault.
#NM If CR0.TS[bit 3] = 1.
