vec_blendv

Purpose

Blends two source vectors according to the sign bits of the corresponding elements of the third source vector.

Note: This built-in function is valid only when the -mcpu option is set to target Power10 processors.

Syntax

d=vec_blendv(a,b,c)

Result value

For each element of c, if bit 0 of that element is equal to 0, the corresponding element of d is set to the corresponding element of a; otherwise, the corresponding element of d is set to the corresponding element of b.
