[PATCH] target/arm: Handle denormals correctly for FMOPA (widening)
Posted by Peter Maydell 3 months, 3 weeks ago
The FMOPA (widening) SME instruction takes pairs of half-precision
floating point values, widens them to single-precision, does a
two-way dot product and accumulates the results into a
single-precision destination.  We don't quite correctly handle the
FPCR bits FZ and FZ16 which control flushing of denormal inputs and
outputs.  This is because at the moment we pass a single float_status
value to the helper function, which then uses that configuration for
all the fp operations it does.  However, because the inputs to this
operation are float16 and the outputs are float32 we need to use the
fp_status_f16 for the float16 input widening but the normal fp_status
for everything else.  Otherwise we will apply the flushing control
FPCR.FZ16 to the 32-bit output rather than the FPCR.FZ control, and
incorrectly flush a denormal output to zero when we should not (or
vice-versa).

Pass the CPU env to the sme_fmopa_h helper instead of an fp_status
pointer, and have the helper pass an extra fp_status into the
f16_dotadd() function so that we can use the right status for the
right parts of this operation.

NB that there's only one user of do_outprod_env() right now,
but we're going to want it also for implementing FEAT_EBF16,
because that will mean that the sma_bfmopa helper also wants to
be passed an env pointer.

I just noticed that there's an associated bug in gitlab
and that we had a go at fixing the denormal-flushing of this
insn in commit 207d30b5fdb5 recently. So I'm adding a note

 (In commit 207d30b5fdb5b we tried to fix the FZ handling but
 didn't get it right, switching from "use FPCR.FZ for everything" to
 "use FPCR.FZ16 for everything".)

and

Fixes: 207d30b5fdb5 ("target/arm: Use FPST_F16 for SME FMOPA (widening)")
Resolves: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2373

to the commit message for this. (I've taken it into target-arm.next.)

thanks

I think the env pointer should replace vst in the argument ordering.
That keeps with the standard gvec signature.

Otherwise,

> That keeps with the standard gvec signature.

Here I was going with our standard signature for everything
that isn't gvec and putting the env pointer first. I'd have
done that for the gvec helpers in the FEAT_EBF16 series too,
except the gvec machinery doesn't allow it AFAICT (and also
doesn't let you pass it as 'env' and insists on 'ptr' I think).

But I don't feel strongly, so I'll change this.

thanks
