Double-precision arithmetic instructions, except those involving multiplication (fmul, fmadd, fmsub, fnmadd,
fnmsub) execute with the same latency as their single-precision equivalents. For additional details on
floating-point performance, see Chapter 6, Instruction Timing, on page 209.
Floating-Point Multiply/Add Instructions
These instructions combine multiply and add operations without an intermediate rounding operation. The
floating-point multiply/add instructions are summarized in Table 2-13.
Floating-Point Rounding and Conversion Instructions
The Floating Round to Single-Precision (frsp) instruction is used to truncate a 64-bit double-precision number
to a 32-bit single-precision floating-point number. The floating-point convert instructions convert a 64-bit
double-precision floating-point number to a 32-bit signed integer number.
