Struct core::arch::x86_64::__m256 1.27.0[−][src]
#[repr(simd)]pub struct __m256(_, _, _, _, _, _, _, _);This is supported on x86-64 only.
Expand description
256-bit wide set of eight f32 types, x86-specific
This type is the same as the __m256 type defined by Intel,
representing a 256-bit SIMD register which internally is consisted of
eight packed f32 instances. Usage of this type typically corresponds
to the avx and up target features for x86/x86_64.
Note that unlike __m256i, the integer version of the 256-bit
registers, this __m256 type has one interpretation. Each instance
of __m256 always corresponds to f32x8, or eight f32 types packed
together.
Most intrinsics using __m256 are prefixed with _mm256_ and are
suffixed with “ps” (or otherwise contain “ps”). Not to be confused with
“pd” which is used for __m256d.

#[cfg(target_arch = "x86")]
