# Function core::arch::x86::_mm_mpsadbw_epu8
1.27.0[−][src]

    pub unsafe fn _mm_mpsadbw_epu8<const IMM8: i32>(
        a: __m128i,
        b: __m128i
    ) -> __m128i

This is supported on x86 and target feature `sse4.1` only.
Expand description

Subtracts 8-bit unsigned integer values and computes the absolute values of the differences to the corresponding bits in the destination. Then sums of the absolute differences are returned according to the bit fields in the immediate operand.

The following algorithm is performed:

ⓘ

    i = IMM8[2] * 4
    j = IMM8[1:0] * 4
    for k := 0 to 7
        d0 = abs(a[i + k + 0] - b[j + 0])
        d1 = abs(a[i + k + 1] - b[j + 1])
        d2 = abs(a[i + k + 2] - b[j + 2])
        d3 = abs(a[i + k + 3] - b[j + 3])
        r[k] = d0 + d1 + d2 + d3

Run

Arguments:

- `a` - A 128-bit vector of type `__m128i`.
- `b` - A 128-bit vector of type `__m128i`.
- `IMM8` - An 8-bit immediate operand specifying how the absolute differences are to be calculated
  - Bit `[2]` specify the offset for operand `a`
  - Bits `[1:0]` specify the offset for operand `b`

Returns:

- A `__m128i` vector containing the sums of the sets of absolute differences between both operands.
