摘要： An apparatus for processing data is provided comprising processing circuitry having permutation circuitry for performing permutation operations, a register bank having a plurality of registers for storing data and control circuitry responsive to program instructions to control the processing circuitry to perform data processing operations. The control circuitry is arranged to be responsive to a control-generating instruction to generate in dependence upon a bit-mask control signals to configure permutation circuitry for performing permutation operation on an input operand. The bit-mask identifies within the input operand the first group of data elements having a first ordering and a second group of data elements having a second ordering and the permutation operation is such that it preserves one of the first ordering and the second ordering but changes the other of the first ordering and the second ordering.

摘要： A data processing apparatus and method for performing multiply-accumulate operations is provided. The data processing apparatus includes data processing circuitry responsive to control signals to perform data processing operations on at least one input data element. Instruction decoder circuitry is responsive to a predicated multiply-accumulate instruction specifying as input operands a first input data element, a second input data element, and a predicate value, to generate control signals to control the data processing circuitry to perform a multiply-accumulate operation by: multiplying said first input data element and said second input data element to produce a multiplication data element; if the predicate value has a first value, producing a result accumulate data element by adding the multiplication data element to an initial accumulate data element; and if the predicate value has a second value, producing the result accumulate data element by subtracting the multiplication data element from the initial accumulate data element. Such an approach provides a particularly efficient mechanism for performing complex sequences of multiply-add and multiply-subtract operations, facilitating improvements in performance, energy consumption and code density when compared with known prior art techniques.

摘要： An apparatus and method for performing SIMD multiply-accumulate operations includes SIMD data processing circuitry responsive to control signals to perform data processing operations in parallel on multiple data elements. Instruction decoder circuitry is coupled to the SIMD data processing circuitry and is responsive to program instructions to generate the required control signals. The instruction decoder circuitry is responsive to a single instruction (referred to herein as a repeating multiply-accumulate instruction) having as input operands a first vector of input data elements, a second vector of coefficient data elements, and a scalar value indicative of a plurality of iterations required, to generate control signals to control the SIMD processing circuitry. In response to those control signals, the SIMD data processing circuitry performs the plurality of iterations of a multiply-accumulate process, each iteration involving performance of N multiply-accumulate operations in parallel in order to produce N multiply-accumulate data elements. For each iteration, the SIMD data processing circuitry determines N input data elements from said first vector and a single coefficient data element from the second vector to be multiplied with each of the N input data elements. The N multiply-accumulate data elements produced in a final iteration of the multiply-accumulate process are then used to produce N multiply-accumulate results. This mechanism provides a particularly energy efficient mechanism for performing SIMD multiply-accumulate operations, as for example are required for FIR filter processes.

摘要： A data processing system 2 is provided including an instruction decoder 34 responsive to program instructions within an instruction register 32 to generate control signals for controlling data processing circuitry 36. The instructions supported include an address calculation instruction which splits an input address value at a position dependent upon a size value into a first portion and second portion, adds a non-zero offset value to the first portion, sets the second portion to a value and then concatenates the result of the processing on the first portion and the second portion to form the output address value. Another type of instruction supported is a select-and-insert instruction. This instruction takes a first input value and shifts it by N bit positions to form a shifted value, selects N bits from within a second input value in dependence upon the first input value and then concatenates the shifted value with the N bits to form an output value. The address calculation instruction and the select-and-insert instruction described above are useful when manipulating two-dimensional data arrays, and particularly so when these are two-dimensional data arrays are formed of Viterbi trellis data through which traceback operations are to be performed.
