Patent ID: 10705839

Abstract:
A processor having a decoder to decode an instruction to generate a decoded instruction; a first source register to store a first plurality of packed signed bytes; a second source register to store a second plurality of packed signed bytes; execution circuitry to execute the decoded instruction, the execution circuitry including: multiplier circuitry to multiply each packed signed byte from the first source register with a corresponding packed signed byte from the second source register to generate temporary products, adder circuitry to add a plurality of sets of the temporary products to generate a plurality of temporary sums; negation and extension circuitry to negate and extend each of the temporary sums to doublewords sums; and accumulation circuitry to add each of the doublewords sums to a doubleword from a third source register to generate final doubleword results; and a packed data destination register to store the final doubleword results.
