VPERMPS — Permute Single-Precision Floating-Point Elements

Instruction Operand Encoding

Description

Use the index values in each dword element of the first source operand (the second operand) to select a singleprecision floating-point element in the second source operand (the third operand), the resultant data from the second source operand is copied to the destination operand (the first operand) in the corresponding position of the index element. Note that this instruction permits a doubleword in the source operand to be copied to more than one doubleword location in the destination operand. An attempt to execute VPERMPS encoded with VEX.L= 0 will cause an #UD exception.

Operation
