This chapter covers Armv8-64 SIMD programming using packed integer operands. The content is partitioned into two major sections. The first section focuses on basic packed arithmetic including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and shift operations. The purpose of this section is to illustrate essential Armv8-64 SIMD instruction usage. The second section presents Armv8-64 SIMD functions that are useful for image-processing applications. This section also explains how to use advanced macros and macro arguments.
The discussions in this and the next two chapters ...
