realizing  exu stream  exu block  compute phase   operation   in the decimal floating point value domain   and rounds use current dynamic rounding mode

native on: Decimal8 Decimal16

Decimal floating point fused multiply-add. As usual for those, it yields a higher precision than doing it separately, and is faster too. Uses current rounding behaviour.


fmad(d x, d y, d z) → d r0

operands: like Addd [dd:d]

Returns x*y+z on the belt.

encoding: fmad(d x) , exuArgs(op arg0, op arg1)

Decimal8 E0 E1 d,d:d=7 dv,dv:dv=7 q,q:q=8 qv,qv:qv=8
Decimal16 E0 E1 d,d:d=7 dv,dv:dv=7 q,q:q=8 qv,qv:qv=8

fmad(d x, d y, d z, d w) → d r0, d r1

operands: like Fmasd [dd:d]

This is a fused multiply-add-subtract. An excellent way to make full use of all Functional Units in the 2 Slots.
r0 is x*y+z*w
r1 is x*y-z*w

encoding: fmad(d x, d y) , exuArgs(op arg0, op arg1)
