_mm_mpsadbw_epu8

Microsoft Specific

Emits the Streaming SIMD Extensions 4 (SSE4) instruction mpsadbw. This instruction computes multiple packed sums on the absolute value of the difference between two parameters.

__m128i _mm_mpsadbw_epu8( 
   __m128i a,
   __m128i b,
   const int mask 
);

Parameters

  • [in] a
    A 128-bit parameter that contains sixteen 8-bit unsigned integers.

  • [in] b
    A 128-bit parameter that contains sixteen 8-bit unsigned integers.

  • [in] mask
    A constant that specifies which integers to use in the calculation.

Result value

A 128-bit result that contains eight 16-bit unsigned integers. The values of these integers can be computed as follows:

i = mask2 * 4
j = mask0-1 * 4
for (k = 0; k < 8; k = k + 1) {
        t0 = abs(a[i + k + 0] - b[j + 0])
        t1 = abs(a[i + k + 1] - b[j + 1])
        t2 = abs(a[i + k + 2] - b[j + 2])
        t3 = abs(a[i + k + 3] - b[j + 3])
        r[k] = t0 + t1 + t2 + t3
}

_mm_mpsadbw_epu8

x86, x64

Header file <smmintrin.h>

Remarks

a[n] and b[n] indicate the nth ordered unsigned 8-bit integer of parameters a and b where a[0] and b[0] are the lowest 8 bits. r[n] is the nth ordered unsigned 16-bit element of result r, where r[0] refers to the lowest 16 bits. mask0, mask1, and mask2 are the three least significant bits of parameter mask.

Before you use this intrinsic, software must ensure that the processor supports the instruction.
