Abstract: Techniques for converting FP16 to BF8 using bias are described. An exemplary embodiment utilizes decoder circuitry to decode a single instruction, the single instruction to include one or more fields to identify a first source operand, one or more fields to identify a second source operand, one or more fields to identify a source/destination operand, and one or more fields for an opcode, wherein the opcode is to indicate that execution circuitry is to convert packed half-precision data from the identified first and second sources to packed bfloat8 data using bias terms from the identified source/destination operand and store the packed bfloat8 data into corresponding data element positions of the identified source/destination operand; and execution circuitry to execute the decoded instruction according to the opcode to convert packed half-precision data from the identified first and second sources to packed bfloat8 data using bias terms from the identified source/destination operand and store the packed bfloat8 data into corresponding data element positions of the identified source/destination operand.

Abstract: An apparatus is described having instruction execution logic circuitry to execute first, second, third and fourth instruction. Both the first instruction and the second instruction insert a first group of input vector elements to one of multiple first non overlapping sections of respective first and second resultant vectors. The first group has a first bit width. Each of the multiple first non overlapping sections have a same bit width as the first group. Both the third instruction and the fourth instruction insert a second group of input vector elements to one of multiple second non overlapping sections of respective third and fourth resultant vectors. The second group has a second bit width that is larger than said first bit width. Each of the multiple second non overlapping sections have a same bit width as the second group. The apparatus also includes masking layer circuitry to mask the first and third instructions at a first resultant vector granularity, and, mask the second and fourth instructions at a second resultant vector granularity.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to an interleaved pipeline of floating-point (FP) adders. In one example, a processor is to execute an instruction specifying an opcode and locations of a M by K first source matrix, a K by N second source matrix, and a M by N destination matrix, the opcode indicating execution circuitry, for each FP element (M, N) of the destination matrix, is to: launch K instances of a pipeline having a first, MULTIPLY stage, during which a FP element (M, K) of the first source matrix and a corresponding FP element (K, N) of the second source matrix are multiplied; concurrently, in an EXPDIFF stage, determine an exponent difference between the product and a previous FP value of the element (M, N) of the destination matrix; and in a second, ADD-BYPASS stage, accumulate the product with the previous FP value and, concurrently, bypassing the accumulated sum to a subsequent pipeline instance.
