## FABS

Floating-point absolute value (predicated)

Take the absolute value of each active floating-point element of the source vector, and place the results in the corresponding elements of the destination vector. This clears the sign bit and cannot signal a floating-point exception. Inactive elements in the destination vector register remain unmodified.

FABS <Zd>.<T>, <Pg>/M, <Zn>.<T>

if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SVE) && !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_SME) then UNDEFINED; if size == '00' then UNDEFINED; constant integer esize = 8 << UInt(size); constant integer g = UInt(Pg); constant integer n = UInt(Zn); constant integer d = UInt(Zd);

### Assembler Symbols

<Zd> | Is the name of the destination scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zd" field.

<T> | Is the size specifier, encoded in size:
size | <T>
--- | ---
00 | RESERVED
01 | H
10 | S
11 | D

<Pg> | Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field.

<Zn> | Is the name of the source scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.

### Operation

CheckSVEEnabled(); constant integer VL = CurrentVL; constant integer PL = VL DIV 8; constant integer elements = VL DIV esize; constant bits(PL) mask = P[g, PL]; constant bits(VL) operand = if AnyActiveElement(mask, esize) then Z[n, VL] else Zeros(VL); bits(VL) result = Z[d, VL]; for e = 0 to elements-1 if ActivePredicateElement(mask, e, esize) then constant bits(esize) element = Elem[operand, e, esize]; Elem[result, e, esize] = FPAbs(element, FPCR); Z[d, VL] = result;

### Operational information

This instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction. The MOVPRFX must conform to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of the MOVPRFX and this instruction is constrained unpredictable:

- The MOVPRFX can be predicated or unpredicated.
- A predicated MOVPRFX must use the same governing predicate register as this instruction.
- A predicated MOVPRFX must use the larger of the destination element size and first source element size in the preferred disassembly of this instruction.
- The MOVPRFX must specify the same destination register as this instruction.
- The destination register must not refer to architectural register state referenced by any other source operand register of this instruction.
