XS3 32-Bit Vector Functions

enum pad_mode_e

Supported padding modes for convolutions in “same” mode.

Values:

enumerator PAD_MODE_REFLECT

Vector is reflected at its boundaries, such that

\( \tilde{x}_i \begin{cases} x_{-i} & i \lt 0 \\ x_{2N - 2 - i} & i \ge N \\ x_i & otherwise \end{cases} \)

For example, if the length \(N\) of input vector \(\bar x\) is \(7\) and the order \(K\) of the filter is \(5\), then

\( \bar{x} = [x_0, x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6] \)

\( \tilde{x} = [x_2, x_1, x_0, x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6, x_5, x_4] \)

Note that by convention the first element of \(\tilde{x}\) is considered to be at index \(-P\), where \(P = \lfloor K/2 \rfloor\).

enumerator PAD_MODE_EXTEND

Vector is padded using the value of the bounding elements.

\( \tilde{x}_i \begin{cases} x_{0} & i \lt 0 \\ x_{N-1} & i \ge N \\ x_i & otherwise \end{cases} \)

For example, if the length \(N\) of input vector \(\bar x\) is \(7\) and the order \(K\) of the filter is \(5\), then

\( \bar{x} = [x_0, x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6] \)

\( \tilde{x} = [x_0, x_0, x_0, x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6, x_6, x_6] \)

Note that by convention the first element of \(\tilde{x}\) is considered to be at index \(-P\), where \(P = \lfloor K/2 \rfloor\).

enumerator PAD_MODE_ZERO

Vector is padded with zeroes.

\( \tilde{x}_i \begin{cases} 0 & i \lt 0 \\ 0 & i \ge N \\ x_i & otherwise \end{cases} \)

For example, if the length \(N\) of input vector \(\bar x\) is \(7\) and the order \(K\) of the filter is \(5\), then

\( \bar{x} = [x_0, x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6] \)

\( \tilde{x} = [0, 0, x_0, x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6, 0, 0] \)

Note that by convention the first element of \(\tilde{x}\) is considered to be at index \(-P\), where \(P = \lfloor K/2 \rfloor\).

Add one complex 32-bit vector to another.

a[], b[] and c[] represent the complex 32-bit mantissa vectors \(\bar a\), \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively. Each must begin at a word-aligned address. This operation can be performed safely in-place on b[] or c[].

length is the number of elements in each of the vectors.

b_shr and c_shr are the signed arithmetic right-shifts applied to each element of \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively.

Operation Performed:

\[\begin{split}\begin{align*} & b_k' \leftarrow sat_{32}(\lfloor b_k \cdot 2^{-b\_shr} \rfloor) \\ & c_k' \leftarrow sat_{32}(\lfloor c_k \cdot 2^{-c\_shr} \rfloor) \\ & Re\{a_k\} \leftarrow Re\{b_k'\} + Re\{c_k'\} \\ & Im\{a_k\} \leftarrow Im\{b_k'\} + Im\{c_k'\} \\ & \qquad\text{ for }k\in 0\ ...\ (length-1) \end{align*}\end{split}\]

Block Floating-Point

If \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) are the complex 32-bit mantissas of BFP vectors \( \bar{b} \cdot 2^{b\_exp} \) and \(\bar{c} \cdot 2^{c\_exp}\), then the resulting vector \(\bar a\) are the complex 32-bit mantissas of BFP vector \(\bar{a} \cdot 2^{a\_exp}\).

In this case, \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) must be chosen so that \(a\_exp = b\_exp + b\_shr = c\_exp + c\_shr\). Adding or subtracting mantissas only makes sense if they are associated with the same exponent.

The function xs3_vect_complex_s32_add_prepare() can be used to obtain values for \(a\_exp\), \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) based on the input exponents \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\) and the input headrooms \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\).

In this case, \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) must be chosen so that \(a\_exp = b\_exp + b\_shr = c\_exp + c\_shr\). Adding or subtracting mantissas only makes sense if they are associated with the same exponent.

Additional Details

Internally the sum accumulates into four separate complex 40-bit accumulators. These accumulators apply symmetric 40-bit saturation logic (with bounds \(\pm 2^{39}-1\)) with each added element. At the end, the 4 accumulators are summed together into the 64-bit fields of a. No saturation logic is applied at this final step.

In the most extreme case, each \(b_k\) may be \(-2^{31}\). \(256\) of these added into the same accumulator is \(-2^{39}\) which would saturate to \(-2^{39}+1\), introducing 1 LSb of error (which may or may not be acceptable given a particular circumstance). The final result for each part then may be as large as \(4\cdot(-2^{39}+1) = -2^{41}+4 \), each fitting into a 42-bit signed integer.

Parameters
  • a[out] Complex sum \(a\)

  • b[in] Complex input vector \(\bar b\).

  • length[in] Number of elements in vector \(\bar b\).

  • b_shr[in] Right-shift appled to \(\bar b\).

Parameters
  • a[out] Output vector \(\bar a\)

  • b[in] Input vector \(\bar b\)

  • length[in] Number of elements in vectors \(\bar a\) and \(\bar b\)

int64_t xs3_vect_s32_abs_sum(const int32_t b[], const unsigned length)

b[] represents the 32-bit mantissa vector \(\bar b\). b[] must begin at a word-aligned address.

length is the number of elements in \(\bar b\).

Operation Performed:

\[\begin{align*} \sum_{k=0}^{length-1} sat_{32}(\left| b_k \right|) \end{align*}\]

Block Floating-Point

If \(\bar b\) are the mantissas of BFP vector \(\bar{b} \cdot 2^{b\_exp}\), then the returned value \(a\) is the 64-bit mantissa of floating-point value \(a \cdot 2^{a\_exp}\), where \(a\_exp = b\_exp\).

Additional Details

Internally the sum accumulates into 8 separate 40-bit accumulators. These accumulators apply symmetric 40-bit saturation logic (with bounds \(\pm (2^{39}-1)\)) with each added element. At the end, the 8 accumulators are summed together into the 64-bit value \(a\) which is returned by this function. No saturation logic is applied at this final step.

Because symmetric 32-bit saturation logic is applied when computing the absolute value, in the corner case where each element is INT32_MIN, each of the 8 accumulators can accumulate \(256\) elements before saturation is possible. Therefore, with \(b\_hr\) bits of headroom, no saturation of intermediate results is possible with fewer than \(2^{11 + b\_hr}\) elements in \(\bar b\).

If the length of \(\bar b\) is greater than \(2^{11 + b\_hr}\), the sum can be computed piece-wise in several calls to this function, with the partial results summed in user code.

Parameters
  • b[in] Input vector \(\bar b\)

  • length[in] Number of elements in \(\bar b\)

Throws

ET_LOAD_STORE – Raised if b is not word-aligned (See Note: Vector Alignment)

a[], b[] and c[] represent the 32-bit mantissa vectors \(\bar a\), \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively. Each must begin at a word-aligned address. This operation can be performed safely in-place on b[] or c[].

length is the number of elements in each of the vectors.

b_shr and c_shr are the signed arithmetic right-shifts applied to each element of \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively.

Operation Performed:

\[\begin{split}\begin{align*} & b_k' = sat_{32}(\lfloor b_k \cdot 2^{-b\_shr} \rfloor) \\ & c_k' = sat_{32}(\lfloor c_k \cdot 2^{-c\_shr} \rfloor) \\ & a_k \leftarrow sat_{32}\!\left( b_k' + c_k' \right) \\ & \qquad\text{ for }k\in 0\ ...\ (length-1) \end{align*}\end{split}\]

Block Floating-Point

If \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) are the mantissas of BFP vectors \( \bar{b} \cdot 2^{b\_exp} \) and \(\bar{c} \cdot 2^{c\_exp}\), then the resulting vector \(\bar a\) are the mantissas of BFP vector \(\bar{a} \cdot 2^{a\_exp}\).

In this case, \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) must be chosen so that \(a\_exp = b\_exp + b\_shr = c\_exp + c\_shr\). Adding or subtracting mantissas only makes sense if they are associated with the same exponent.

The function xs3_vect_s32_add_prepare() can be used to obtain values for \(a\_exp\), \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) based on the input exponents \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\) and the input headrooms \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\).

Operation Performed:

\[\begin{split}\begin{align*} & b_k' = sat_{32}(\lfloor b_k \cdot 2^{-b\_shr} \rfloor) \\ & a_k \leftarrow sat_{32}\!\left( b_k' + c \right) \\ & \qquad\text{ for }k\in 0\ ...\ (length-1) \end{align*}\end{split}\]

Block Floating-Point

If elements of \(\bar b\) are the mantissas of BFP vector \( \bar{b} \cdot 2^{b\_exp} \), and \(c\) is the mantissa of floating-point value \(c \cdot 2^{c\_exp}\), then the resulting vector \(\bar a\) are the mantissas of BFP vector \(\bar{a} \cdot 2^{a\_exp}\).

In this case, \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) must be chosen so that \(a\_exp = b\_exp + b\_shr = c\_exp + c\_shr\). Adding or subtracting mantissas only makes sense if they are associated with the same exponent.

The function xs3_vect_s32_add_scalar_prepare() can be used to obtain values for \(a\_exp\), \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) based on the input exponents \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\) and the input headrooms \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\).

Note that \(c\_shr\) is an output of xs3_vect_s32_add_scalar_prepare(), but is not a parameter to this function. The \(c\_shr\) produced by xs3_vect_s32_add_scalar_prepare() is to be applied by the user, and the result passed as input c.

Parameters
  • a[out] Output vector \(\bar a\)

  • b[in] Input vector \(\bar b\)

int64_t xs3_vect_s32_dot(const int32_t b[], const int32_t c[], const unsigned length, const right_shift_t b_shr, const right_shift_t c_shr)

Compute the inner product between two 32-bit vectors.

Operation Performed:

\[\begin{split}\begin{align*} & b_k' \leftarrow sat_{32}(\lfloor b_k \cdot 2^{-b\_shr} \rfloor) \\ & c_k' \leftarrow sat_{32}(\lfloor c_k \cdot 2^{-c\_shr} \rfloor) \\ & a \leftarrow \sum_{k=0}^{length-1}\left(round( b_k' \cdot c_k' \cdot 2^{-30} ) \right) \\ & \qquad\text{where } a \text{ is returned} \end{align*}\end{split}\]

Block Floating-Point

If \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) are the mantissas of the BFP vectors \( \bar{b} \cdot 2^{b\_exp} \) and \(\bar{c}\cdot 2^{c\_exp}\), then result \(a\) is the 64-bit mantissa of the result \(a \cdot 2^{a\_exp}\), where \(a\_exp = b\_exp + c\_exp + b\_shr + c\_shr + 30\).

If needed, the bit-depth of \(a\) can then be reduced to 32 bits to get a new result \(a' \cdot 2^{a\_exp'}\) where \(a' = a \cdot 2^{-a\_shr}\) and \(a\_exp' = a\_exp + a\_shr\).

The function xs3_vect_s32_dot_prepare() can be used to obtain values for \(a\_exp\), \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) based on the input exponents \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\) and the input headrooms \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\).

Additional Details

The 30-bit rounding right-shift applied to each of the 64-bit products \(b_k \cdot c_k\) is a feature of the hardware and cannot be avoided. As such, if the input vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) together have too much headroom (i.e. \(b\_hr + c\_hr\)), the sum may effectively vanish. To avoid this situation, negative values of b_shr and c_shr may be used (with the stipulation that \(b\_shr \ge -b\_hr\) and \(c\_shr \ge -c\_hr\) if saturation of \(b_k'\) and \(c_k'\) is to be avoided). The less headroom \(b_k'\) and \(c_k'\) have, the greater the precision of the final result.

Internally, each product \((b_k' \cdot c_k' \cdot 2^{-30})\) accumulates into one of eight 40-bit accumulators (which are all used simultaneously) which apply symmetric 40-bit saturation logic (with bounds \(\approx 2^{39}\)) with each value added. The saturating arithmetic employed is not associative and no indication is given if saturation occurs at an intermediate step. To avoid satuation errors, length should be no greater than \(2^{10+b\_hr+c\_hr}\), where \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\) are the headroom of \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively.

If the caller’s mantissa vectors are longer than that, the full inner product can be found by calling this function multiple times for partial inner products on sub-sequences of the input vectors, and adding the results in user code.

In many situations the caller may have a priori knowledge that saturation is impossible (or very nearly so), in which case this guideline may be disregarded. However, such situations are application-specific and are well beyond the scope of this documentation, and as such are left to the user’s discretion.

Parameters
  • b[in] Input vector \(\bar b\)

  • c[in] Input vector \(\bar c\)

Block Floating-Point

If \(\bar b\) are the mantissas of the BFP vector \(\bar{b} \cdot 2^{b\_exp}\), then floating-point result is \(a \cdot 2^{a\_exp}\), where the 64-bit mantissa \(a\) is returned by this function, and \(a\_exp = 30 + 2 \cdot (b\_exp + b\_shr) \).

The function xs3_vect_s32_energy_prepare() can be used to obtain values for \(a\_exp\), \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) based on the input exponents \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\) and the input headrooms \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\).

Additional Details

The 30-bit rounding right-shift applied to each element of the 64-bit products \((b_k')^2\) is a feature of the hardware and cannot be avoided. As such, if the input vector \(\bar b\) has too much headroom (i.e. \(2\cdot b\_hr\)), the sum may effectively vanish. To avoid this situation, negative values of b_shr may be used (with the stipulation that \(b\_shr \ge -b\_hr\) if satuartion of \(b_k'\) is to be avoided). The less headroom \(b_k'\) has, the greater the precision of the final result.

Internally, each product \((b_k')^2 \cdot 2^{-30}\) accumulates into one of eight 40-bit accumulators (which are all used simultaneously) which apply symmetric 40-bit saturation logic (with bounds \(\approx 2^{39}\)) with each value added. The saturating arithmetic employed is not associative and no indication is given if saturation occurs at an intermediate step. To avoid saturation errors, length should be no greater than \(2^{10+2\cdotb\_hr}\), where \(b\_hr\) is the headroom of \(\bar b\).

If the caller’s mantissa vector is longer than that, the full result can be found by calling this function multiple times for partial results on sub-sequences of the input, and adding the results in user code.

In many situations the caller may have a priori knowledge that saturation is impossible (or very nearly so), in which case this guideline may be disregarded. However, such situations are application-specific and are well beyond the scope of this documentation, and as such are left to the user’s discretion.

\[\begin{align*} a \leftarrow \sum_{k=0}^{length-1} b_k \end{align*}\]

Block Floating-Point

If \(\bar b\) are the mantissas of BFP vector \(\bar{b} \cdot 2^{b\_exp}\), then the returned value \(a\) is the 64-bit mantissa of floating-point value \(a \cdot 2^{a\_exp}\), where \(a\_exp = b\_exp\).

Additional Details

Internally, each element accumulates into one of eight 40-bit accumulators (which are all used simultaneously) which apply symmetric 40-bit saturation logic (with bounds \(\approx 2^{39}\)) with each value added. The saturating arithmetic employed is not associative and no indication is given if saturation occurs at an intermediate step. To avoid the possibility of saturation errors, length should be no greater than \(2^{11+b\_hr}\), where \(b\_hr\) is the headroom of \(\bar b\).

If the caller’s mantissa vector is longer than that, the full result can be found by calling this function multiple times for partial results on sub-sequences of the input, and adding the results in user code.

In many situations the caller may have a priori knowledge that saturation is impossible (or very nearly so), in which case this guideline may be disregarded. However, such situations are application-specific and are well beyond the scope of this documentation, and as such are left to the user’s discretion.

Parameters
  • b[in] Input vector \(\bar b\)

  • length[in] Number of elements in vector \(\bar b\)

Throws

ET_LOAD_STORE – Raised if b is not word-aligned (See Note: Vector Alignment)

Returns

Convolve a 32-bit vector with a short kernel.

32-bit input vector \(\bar x\) is convolved with a short fixed-point kernel \(\bar b\) to produce 32-bit output vector \(\bar y\). In other words, this function applies the \(K\)th-order FIR filter with coefficients given by \(\bar b\) to the input signal \(\bar x\). The convolution is “valid” in the sense that no output elements are emitted where the filter taps extend beyond the bounds of the input vector, resulting in an output vector \(\bar y\) with fewer elements.

The maximum filter order \(K\) supported by this function is \(7\).

y[] is the output vector \(\bar y\). If input \(\bar x\) has \(N\) elements, and the filter has \(K\) elements, then \(\bar y\) has \(N-2P\) elements, where \(P = \lfloor K / 2 \rfloor\).

b_q30[] is the vector \(\bar b\) of filter coefficients. The coefficients of \(\bar b\) are encoded in a Q2.30 fixed-point format. The effective value of the \(i\)th coefficient is then \(b_i \cdot 2^{-30}\).

b_length is the length \(K\) of \(\bar b\) in elements (i.e. the number of filter taps). b_length must be one of \( \{ 1, 3, 5, 7 \} \).

Operation Performed:

Additional Details

To avoid the possibility of saturating any output elements, \(\bar b\) may be constrained such that \( \sum_{i=0}^{K-1} \left|b_i\right| \leq 2^{30} \).

This operation can be applied safely in-place on x[].

headroom_t xs3_vect_s32_convolve_same(int32_t y[], const int32_t x[], const int32_t b_q30[], const unsigned x_length, const unsigned b_length, const pad_mode_e padding_mode)

Convolve a 32-bit vector with a short kernel.

32-bit input vector \(\bar x\) is convolved with a short fixed-point kernel \(\bar b\) to produce 32-bit output vector \(\bar y\). In other words, this function applies the \(K\)th-order FIR filter with coefficients given by \(\bar b\) to the input signal \(\bar x\). The convolution mode is “same” in that the input vector is effectively padded such that the input and output vectors are the same length. The padding behavior is one of those given by pad_mode_e.

The maximum filter order \(K\) supported by this function is \(7\).

y[] and x[] are the output and input vectors \(\bar y\) and \(\bar x\) respectively.

b_q30[] is the vector \(\bar b\) of filter coefficients. The coefficients of \(\bar b\) are encoded in a Q2.30 fixed-point format. The effective value of the \(i\)th coefficient is then \(b_i \cdot 2^{-30}\).

x_length is the length \(N\) of \(\bar x\) and \(\bar y\) in elements.

b_length is the length \(K\) of \(\bar b\) in elements (i.e. the number of filter taps). b_length must be one of \( \{ 1, 3, 5, 7 \} \).

padding_mode is one of the values from the pad_mode_e enumeration. The padding mode indicates the filter input values for filter taps that have extended beyond the bounds of the input vector \(\bar x\). See pad_mode_e for a list of supported padding modes and associated behaviors.

Operation Performed:

\[\begin{split}\begin{align*} & \tilde{x}_i = \begin{cases} \text{determined by padding mode} & i \lt 0 \\ \text{determined by padding mode} & i \ge N \\ x_i & otherwise \end{cases} \\ & y_k \leftarrow \sum_{l=0}^{K-1} (\tilde{x}_{(k+l-P)} \cdot b_l \cdot 2^{-30} ) \\ & \qquad\text{ for }k\in 0\ ...\ (N-2P) \\ & \qquad\text{ where }P = \lfloor K/2 \rfloor \end{align*}\end{split}\]

Additional Details

To avoid the possibility of saturating any output elements, \(\bar b\) may be constrained such that \( \sum_{i=0}^{K-1} \left|b_i\right| \leq 2^{30} \).

Merge a vector of split 32-bit accumulators into a vector of int32_t’s.

Convert a vector of xs3_split_acc_s32_t into a vector of int32_t. This is useful when a function (e.g. xs3_mat_mul_s8_x_s8_yield_s32) outputs a vector of accumulators in the XS3 VPU’s native split 32-bit format, which has the upper half of each accumulator in the first 32 bytes and the lower half in the following 32 bytes.

XS3 32-Bit Prepare Functions

void xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc_prepare(exponent_t *new_acc_exp, right_shift_t *acc_shr, right_shift_t *b_shr, right_shift_t *c_shr, const exponent_t acc_exp, const exponent_t b_exp, const exponent_t c_exp, const exponent_t acc_hr, const headroom_t b_hr, const headroom_t c_hr)

Obtain the output exponent and shifts needed by xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc().

This function is used in conjunction with xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc() to perform an element-wise multiply-accumlate of 32-bit BFP vectors.

This function computes new_acc_exp, acc_shr, b_shr and c_shr, which are selected to maximize precision in the resulting accumulator vector without causing saturation of final or intermediate values. Normally the caller will pass these outputs to their corresponding inputs of xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc().

acc_exp is the exponent associated with the accumulator mantissa vector \(\bar a\) prior to the operation, whereas new_acc_exp is the exponent corresponding to the updated accumulator vector.

b_exp and c_exp are the exponents associated with the complex input mantissa vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively.

acc_hr, b_hr and c_hr are the headrooms of \(\bar a\), \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively. If the headroom of any of these vectors is unknown, it can be obtained by calling xs3_vect_complex_s32_headroom(). Alternatively, the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the acc_shr and bc_sat produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

// Presumed to be set somewhere
exponent_t acc_exp, b_exp, c_exp;
headroom_t acc_hr, b_hr, c_hr;
exponent_t desired_exp;

...

// Call prepare
right_shift_t acc_shr, b_shr, c_shr;
xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc_prepare(&acc_exp, &acc_shr, &b_shr, &c_shr, 
                                  acc_exp, b_exp, c_exp,
                                  acc_hr, b_hr, c_hr);

// Modify results
right_shift_t mant_shr = desired_exp - acc_exp;
acc_exp += mant_shr;
acc_shr += mant_shr;
b_shr  += mant_shr;
c_shr  += mant_shr;

// acc_shr, b_shr and c_shr may now be used in a call to xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc() 

When applying the above adjustment, the following conditions should be maintained:

  • acc_shr > -acc_hr (Shifting any further left may cause saturation)

  • b_shr => -b_hr (Shifting any further left may cause saturation)

  • c_shr => -c_hr (Shifting any further left may cause saturation)

It is up to the user to ensure any such modification does not result in saturation or unacceptable loss of precision.

Parameters
  • new_acc_exp[out] Exponent associated with output mantissa vector \(\bar a\) (after macc)

  • acc_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift used for \(\bar a\) in xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc()

  • b_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift used for \(\bar b\) in xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc()

  • c_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift used for \(\bar c\) in xs3_vect_complex_s32_macc()

  • acc_exp[in] Exponent associated with input mantissa vector \(\bar a\) (before macc)

  • b_exp[in] Exponent associated with input mantissa vector \(\bar b\)

  • c_exp[in] Exponent associated with input mantissa vector \(\bar c\)

  • acc_hr[in] Headroom of input mantissa vector \(\bar a\) (before macc)

  • b_hr[in] Headroom of input mantissa vector \(\bar b\)

  • c_hr[in] Headroom of input mantissa vector \(\bar c\)

This function is used in conjunction with xs3_vect_complex_s32_mag() to compute the magnitude of each element of a complex 32-bit BFP vector.

This function computes a_exp and b_shr.

a_exp is the exponent associated with mantissa vector \(\bar a\), and is be chosen to maximize precision when elements of \(\bar a\) are computed. The a_exp chosen by this function is derived from the exponent and headroom associated with the input vector.

b_shr is the shift parameter required by xs3_vect_complex_s32_mag() to achieve the chosen output exponent a_exp.

b_exp is the exponent associated with the input mantissa vector \(\bar b\).

b_hr is the headroom of \(\bar b\). If the headroom of \(\bar b\) is unknown it can be calculated using xs3_vect_complex_s32_headroom(). Alternatively, the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the b_shr produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

exponent_t desired_exp = ...; // Value known a priori
right_shift_t new_b_shr = b_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);

When applying the above adjustment, the following condition should be maintained:

  • b_hr + b_shr >= 0

Using larger values than strictly necessary for b_shr may result in unnecessary underflows or loss of precision.

Parameters
  • a_exp[out] Output exponent associated with output mantissa vector \(\bar a\)

  • b_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift for \(\bar b\) used by xs3_vect_complex_s32_mag()

This function computes a_exp, b_shr and c_shr.

a_exp is the exponent associated with mantissa vector \(\bar a\), and must be chosen to be large enough to avoid overflow when elements of \(\bar a\) are computed.

b_exp and c_exp are the exponents associated with the input mantissa vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively.

b_hr and c_hr are the headroom of \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively. If the headroom of \(\bar b\) or \(\bar c\) is unknown, they can be obtained by calling xs3_vect_complex_s32_headroom(). Alternatively, the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the b_shr and c_shr produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

exponent_t desired_exp = ...; // Value known a priori
right_shift_t new_b_shr = b_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);
right_shift_t new_c_shr = c_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);

When applying the above adjustment, the following conditions should be maintained:

  • b_hr + b_shr >= 0

  • c_hr + c_shr >= 0

Be aware that using smaller values than strictly necessary for b_shr and c_shr can result in saturation, and using larger values may result in unnecessary underflows or loss of precision.

Notes

  • Using the outputs of this function, an output mantissa which would otherwise be INT32_MIN will instead saturate to -INT32_MAX. This is due to the symmetric saturation logic employed by the VPU and is a hardware feature. This is a corner case which is usually unlikely and results in 1 LSb of error when it occurs.

\(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) are the input mantissa vectors with exponents \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\), which are shared by each element of their respective vectors. \(\bar a\) is the output mantissa vector with exponent \(a\_exp\). Two additional properties, \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\), which are the headroom of mantissa vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively, are required by this function.

Once \(a\_exp\) is chosen, the input bit-shifts \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) are calculated to achieve that resulting exponent.

This function chooses \(a\_exp\) to be the minimum exponent known to avoid overflows, given the input exponents ( \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\)) and input headroom ( \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\)).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the b_shr and c_shr produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

right_shift_t new_b_shr = b_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);
right_shift_t new_c_shr = c_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);

When applying the above adjustment, the following conditions should be maintained:

  • b_hr + b_shr >= 0

  • c_hr + c_shr >= 0

Be aware that using smaller values than strictly necessary for b_shr and c_shr can result in saturation, and using larger values may result in unnecessary underflows or loss of precision.

Notes

  • If \(b\_hr\) or \(c\_hr\) are unknown, they can be calculated using the appropriate headroom function (e.g. xs3_vect_complex_s16_headroom() for complex 16-bit vectors) or the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

When applying the above adjustment, the following conditions should be maintained:

  • c_hr + c_shr >= 0

Be aware that using smaller values than strictly necessary for b_shr or c_shr can result in saturation, and using larger values may result in unnecessary underflows or loss of precision.

exponent_t desired_exp = ...; // Value known a priori
right_shift_t new_b_shr = b_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);

When applying the above adjustment, the following condition should be maintained:

To maximize precision, this function chooses a_exp to be the smallest exponent known to avoid saturation. The a_exp chosen by this function is derived from the exponent and smallest element of the input vector.

Todo:

In lib_dsp, the inverse function has a floor, which prevents tiny values from completely dominating the output behavior. Perhaps I should include that?

  • b[in] Input vector \(\bar b\)

void xs3_vect_s32_macc_prepare(exponent_t *new_acc_exp, right_shift_t *acc_shr, right_shift_t *b_shr, right_shift_t *c_shr, const exponent_t acc_exp, const exponent_t b_exp, const exponent_t c_exp, const headroom_t acc_hr, const headroom_t b_hr, const headroom_t c_hr)

Obtain the output exponent and shifts needed by xs3_vect_s32_macc().

This function is used in conjunction with xs3_vect_s32_macc() to perform an element-wise multiply-accumlate of 32-bit BFP vectors.

This function computes new_acc_exp, acc_shr, b_shr and c_shr, which are selected to maximize precision in the resulting accumulator vector without causing saturation of final or intermediate values. Normally the caller will pass these outputs to their corresponding inputs of xs3_vect_s32_macc().

acc_exp is the exponent associated with the accumulator mantissa vector \(\bar a\) prior to the operation, whereas new_acc_exp is the exponent corresponding to the updated accumulator vector.

b_exp and c_exp are the exponents associated with the complex input mantissa vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively.

acc_hr, b_hr and c_hr are the headrooms of \(\bar a\), \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively. If the headroom of any of these vectors is unknown, it can be obtained by calling xs3_vect_s32_headroom(). Alternatively, the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the acc_shr and bc_sat produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

// Presumed to be set somewhere
exponent_t acc_exp, b_exp, c_exp;
headroom_t acc_hr, b_hr, c_hr;
exponent_t desired_exp;

...

// Call prepare
right_shift_t acc_shr, b_shr, c_shr;
xs3_vect_s32_macc_prepare(&acc_exp, &acc_shr, &b_shr, &c_shr, 
                          acc_exp, b_exp, c_exp,
                          acc_hr, b_hr, c_hr);

// Modify results
right_shift_t mant_shr = desired_exp - acc_exp;
acc_exp += mant_shr;
acc_shr += mant_shr;
b_shr  += mant_shr;
c_shr  += mant_shr;

// acc_shr, b_shr and c_shr may now be used in a call to xs3_vect_s32_macc() 

When applying the above adjustment, the following conditions should be maintained:

  • acc_shr > -acc_hr (Shifting any further left may cause saturation)

  • b_shr => -b_hr (Shifting any further left may cause saturation)

  • c_shr => -c_hr (Shifting any further left may cause saturation)

It is up to the user to ensure any such modification does not result in saturation or unacceptable loss of precision.

Parameters
  • new_acc_exp[out] Exponent associated with output mantissa vector \(\bar a\) (after macc)

  • acc_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift used for \(\bar a\) in xs3_vect_s32_macc()

  • b_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift used for \(\bar b\) in xs3_vect_s32_macc()

  • c_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift used for \(\bar c\) in xs3_vect_s32_macc()

  • acc_exp[in] Exponent associated with input mantissa vector \(\bar a\) (before macc)

  • b_exp[in] Exponent associated with input mantissa vector \(\bar b\)

  • acc_hr[in] Headroom of input mantissa vector \(\bar a\) (before macc)

  • b_hr[in] Headroom of input mantissa vector \(\bar b\)

  • c_hr[in] Headroom of input mantissa vector \(\bar c\)

void xs3_vect_s32_mul_prepare(exponent_t *a_exp, right_shift_t *b_shr, right_shift_t *c_shr, const exponent_t b_exp, const exponent_t c_exp, const headroom_t b_hr, const headroom_t c_hr)

Obtain the output exponent and input shifts used by xs3_vect_s32_mul().

This function is used in conjunction with xs3_vect_s32_mul() to perform an element-wise multiplication of two 32-bit BFP vectors.

This function computes a_exp, b_shr, c_shr.

a_exp is the exponent associated with mantissa vector \(\bar a\), and must be chosen to be large enough to avoid overflow when elements of \(\bar a\) are computed. To maximize precision, this function chooses a_exp to be the smallest exponent known to avoid saturation (see exception below). The a_exp chosen by this function is derived from the exponents and headrooms of associated with the input vectors.

b_shr and c_shr are the shift parameters required by xs3_vect_complex_s32_mul() to achieve the chosen output exponent a_exp.

b_exp and c_exp are the exponents associated with the input mantissa vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively.

b_hr and c_hr are the headroom of \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively. If the headroom of \(\bar b\) or \(\bar c\) is unknown, they can be obtained by calling xs3_vect_s32_headroom(). Alternatively, the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the b_shr and c_shr produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

exponent_t desired_exp = ...; // Value known a priori
right_shift_t new_b_shr = b_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);
right_shift_t new_c_shr = c_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);

When applying the above adjustment, the following conditions should be maintained:

  • b_hr + b_shr >= 0

  • c_hr + c_shr >= 0

Be aware that using smaller values than strictly necessary for b_shr and c_shr can result in saturation, and using larger values may result in unnecessary underflows or loss of precision.

Notes

  • Using the outputs of this function, an output mantissa which would otherwise be INT32_MIN will instead saturate to -INT32_MAX. This is due to the symmetric saturation logic employed by the VPU and is a hardware feature. This is a corner case which is usually unlikely and results in 1 LSb of error when it occurs.

xs3_vect_s32_mul

Parameters
  • a_exp[out] Exponent of output elements of xs3_vect_s32_mul()

void xs3_vect_s32_sqrt_prepare(exponent_t *a_exp, right_shift_t *b_shr, const exponent_t b_exp, const right_shift_t b_hr)

Obtain the output exponent and shift parameter used by xs3_vect_s32_sqrt().

This function is used in conjunction withx xs3_vect_s32_sqrt() to compute the square root of elements of a 32-bit BFP vector.

This function computes a_exp and b_shr.

a_exp is the exponent associated with output mantissa vector \(\bar a\), and should be chosen to maximize the precision of the results. To that end, this function chooses a_exp to be the smallest exponent known to avoid saturation of the resulting mantissa vector \(\bar a\). It is derived from the exponent and headroom of the input BFP vector.

b_shr is the shift parameter required by xs3_vect_s32_sqrt() to achieve the chosen output exponent a_exp.

b_exp is the exponent associated with the input mantissa vector \(\bar b\).

b_hr is the headroom of \(\bar b\). If it is unknown, it can be obtained using xs3_vect_s32_headroom(). Alternatively, the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the b_shr produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

exponent_t a_exp;
right_shift_t b_shr;
xs3_vect_s16_mul_prepare(&a_exp, &b_shr, b_exp, c_exp, b_hr, c_hr);
exponent_t desired_exp = ...; // Value known a priori
b_shr = b_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);
a_exp = desired_exp;

When applying the above adjustment, the following condition should be maintained:

  • b_hr + b_shr >= 0

Be aware that using smaller values than strictly necessary for b_shr can result in saturation, and using larger values may result in unnecessary underflows or loss of precision.

Also, if a larger exponent is used than necessary, a larger depth parameter (see xs3_vect_s32_sqrt()) will be required to achieve the same precision, as the results are computed bit by bit, starting with the most significant bit.

Parameters
  • a_exp[out] Exponent of outputs of xs3_vect_s32_sqrt()

  • b_shr[out] Right-shift to be applied to elements of \(\bar b\)

  • b_exp[in] Exponent of vector{b}

  • b_hr[in] Headroom of vector{b}

void xs3_vect_2vec_prepare(exponent_t *a_exp, right_shift_t *b_shr, right_shift_t *c_shr, const exponent_t b_exp, const exponent_t c_exp, const headroom_t b_hr, const headroom_t c_hr, const headroom_t extra_operand_hr)

Obtain the output exponent and input shifts required to perform a binary add-like operation.

This function computes the output exponent and input shifts required for BFP operations which take two vectors as input, where the operation is “add-like”.

Here, “add-like” operations are loosely defined as those which require input vectors to share an exponent before their mantissas can be meaningfully used to perform that operation.

For example, consider adding \( 3 \cdot 2^{x} + 4 \cdot 2^{y} \). If \(x = y\), then the mantissas can be added directly to get a meaningful result \( (3+4) \cdot 2^{x} \). If \(x \ne y\) however, adding the mantissas together is meaningless. Before the mantissas can be added in this case, one or both of the input mantissas must be shifted so that the representations correspond to the same exponent. Likewise, similar logic applies to binary comparisons.

This is in contrast to a “multiply-like” operation, which does not have this same requirement (e.g. \(a \cdot 2^x \cdot b \cdot 2^y = ab \cdot 2^{x+y}\), regardless of whether \(x=y\)).

For a general operation like:

\( \bar{a} \cdot 2^{a\_exp} = \bar{b}\cdot 2^{b\_exp} \oplus \bar{c}\cdot 2^{c\_exp} \)

\(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) are the input mantissa vectors with exponents \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\), which are shared by each element of their respective vectors. \(\bar a\) is the output mantissa vector with exponent \(a\_exp\). Two additional properties, \(b\_hr\) and \(c\_hr\), which are the headroom of mantissa vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) respectively, are required by this function.

In addition to \(a\_exp\), this function computes \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\), signed arithmetic right-shifts applied to the mantissa vectors \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) so that the add-like \(\oplus\) operation can be applied.

This function chooses \(a\_exp\) to be the minimum exponent which can be used to express both \(\bar B\) and \(\bar C\) without saturation of their mantissas, and which leaves both \(\bar b\) and \(\bar c\) with at least extra_operand_hr bits of headroom. The shifts \(b\_shr\) and \(c\_shr\) are derived from \(a\_exp\) using \(b\_exp\) and \(c\_exp\).

Adjusting Output Exponents

If a specific output exponent desired_exp is needed for the result (e.g. for emulating fixed-point arithmetic), the b_shr and c_shr produced by this function can be adjusted according to the following:

exponent_t desired_exp = ...; // Value known a priori
right_shift_t new_b_shr = b_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);
right_shift_t new_c_shr = c_shr + (desired_exp - a_exp);

When applying the above adjustment, the following conditions should be maintained:

  • b_hr + b_shr >= 0

  • c_hr + c_shr >= 0

Be aware that using smaller values than strictly necessary for b_shr and c_shr can result in saturation, and using larger values may result in unnecessary underflows or loss of precision.

Notes

  • If \(b\_hr\) or \(c\_hr\) are unknown, they can be calculated using the appropriate headroom function (e.g. xs3_vect_complex_s16_headroom() for complex 16-bit vectors) or the value 0 can always be safely used (but may result in reduced precision).

Parameters

  • b_shr[out] Signed arithmetic right-shift to be applied to elements of \(\bar b\). Used by the function which computes the output mantissas \(\bar a\)

  • b_exp[in] Exponent of BFP vector \(\bar b\)

  • c_exp[in] Exponent of BFP vector \(\bar c\)

  • b_hr[in] Headroom of BFP vector \(\bar b\)
