摘要
Embodiments of the invention provide methods and apparatus for executing a multiple operand minimum or maximum instructions. Executing the multiple operand minimum or maximum instruction comprises transferring more than two operands to one or more processing lanes of a vector unit. A first compare operation may be performed in at least one processing lane of the vector unit to determine a greater or smaller of a first operand and a second operand. The greater (or smaller) operand may be transferred to a dot product unit, wherein, in a second compare operation, the transferred operand is compared to at least a third operand to determine one of the greater and smaller of the more than two operands.
