Abstract:
A method is provided that includes performing, by a processor in response to a vector permutation instruction, permutation of values stored in lanes of a vector to generate a permuted vector, wherein the permutation is responsive to a control storage location storing permute control input for each lane of the permuted vector, wherein the permute control input corresponding to each lane of the permuted vector indicates a value to be stored in the lane of the permuted vector, wherein the permute control input for at least one lane of the permuted vector indicates a value of a selected lane of the vector is to be stored in the at least one lane, and storing the permuted vector in a storage location indicated by an operand of the vector permutation instruction.

Abstract:
This invention is a digital signal processor capable of performing correlation of data with pseudo noise for code division multiple access (CDMA) decoding using clusters. Each cluster includes plural multipliers. The multipliers multiply real and imaginary parts of packed data by corresponding pseudo noise data. Within a cluster the real parts and the imaginary parts of the products are summed separately. This forms plural complex number outputs equal in number to the number of clusters. The pseudo noise data is offset relative to the data input differing amounts for different clusters. The clusters are divided into first half clusters receiving data from even numbered slots and second half clusters receiving data from odd numbered slots. The correlation unit includes a mask input to selectively zero a multiplier product.

Abstract:
A method to compare first and second source data in a processor in response to a vector maximum with indexing instruction includes specifying first and second source registers containing first and second source data, a destination register storing compared data, and a predicate register. Each of the registers includes a plurality of lanes. The method includes executing the instruction by, for each lane in the first and second source register, comparing a value in the lane of the first source register to a value in the corresponding lane of the second source register to identify a maximum value, storing the maximum value in a corresponding lane of the destination register, asserting a corresponding lane of the predicate register if the maximum value is from the first source register, and de-asserting the corresponding lane of the predicate register if the maximum value is from the second source register.
