For integer operations, clamp modifier indicates that the result must be clamped to the largest and smallest representable value. By default, there is no clamping. Integer clamping is not supported by GFX7.
For floating point operations, clamp modifier indicates that the result must be clamped to the range [0.0, 1.0]. By default, there is no clamping.
Note: clamp modifier is applied after :ref:`output modifiers<amdgpu_synid_omod>` (if any).

VOP3 Operand Modifiers
Operand modifiers are not used separately. They are applied to source operands.
abs
Computes the absolute value of its operand. Must be applied before :ref:`neg<amdgpu_synid_neg>` (if any). Valid for floating point operands only.
Syntax Description abs(<operand>) Get the absolute value of a floating-point operand. |<operand>| The same as above (an SP3 syntax).
Note: avoid using SP3 syntax with operands specified as expressions because the trailing '|' may be misinterpreted. Such operands should be enclosed into additional parentheses as shown in examples below.
Examples:
abs(v36) |v36| abs(x|y) // ok |(x|y)| // additional parentheses are required
neg
Computes the negative value of its operand. Must be applied after :ref:`abs<amdgpu_synid_abs>` (if any). Valid for floating point operands only.
Syntax Description neg(<operand>) Get the negative value of a floating-point operand. The operand may include an optional :ref:`abs<amdgpu_synid_abs>` modifier. -<operand> The same as above (an SP3 syntax).
Note: SP3 syntax is supported with limitations because of a potential ambiguity. Currently it is allowed in the following cases:
- Before a register.
- Before an :ref:`abs<amdgpu_synid_abs>` modifier.
- Before an SP3 :ref:`abs<amdgpu_synid_abs>` modifier.
In all other cases "-" is handled as a part of an expression that follows the sign.
Examples:
// Operands with negate modifiers neg(v[0]) neg(1.0) neg(abs(v0)) -v5 -abs(v5) -|v5| // Operands without negate modifiers -1 -x+y

neg_lo
Specifies whether to change sign of operand values selected by :ref:`op_sel<amdgpu_synid_op_sel>`. These values are then used as input to the operation which results in the upper-half of the destination.
The number of values specified by this modifier must match the number of source operands. First value controls src0, second value controls src1 and so on.
The value 0 indicates that the corresponding operand value is used unmodified, the value 1 indicates that negative value of the operand must be used.
By default, operand values are used unmodified.
This modifier is valid for floating point operands only.
Syntax Description neg_lo:[{0..1}] Select affected operands for instructions with 1 source operand. neg_lo:[{0..1},{0..1}] Select affected operands for instructions with 2 source operands. neg_lo:[{0..1},{0..1},{0..1}] Select affected operands for instructions with 3 source operands.
Note: numeric values may be specified as either :ref:`integer numbers<amdgpu_synid_integer_number>` or :ref:`absolute expressions<amdgpu_synid_absolute_expression>`.
Examples:
neg_lo:[0] neg_lo:[0,1]
neg_hi
Specifies whether to change sign of operand values selected by :ref:`op_sel_hi<amdgpu_synid_op_sel_hi>`. These values are then used as input to the operation which results in the upper-half of the destination.
The number of values specified by this modifier must match the number of source operands. First value controls src0, second value controls src1 and so on.
The value 0 indicates that the corresponding operand value is used unmodified, the value 1 indicates that negative value of the operand must be used.
By default, operand values are used unmodified.
This modifier is valid for floating point operands only.
Syntax Description neg_hi:[{0..1}] Select affected operands for instructions with 1 source operand. neg_hi:[{0..1},{0..1}] Select affected operands for instructions with 2 source operands. neg_hi:[{0..1},{0..1},{0..1}] Select affected operands for instructions with 3 source operands.
Note: numeric values may be specified as either :ref:`integer numbers<amdgpu_synid_integer_number>` or :ref:`absolute expressions<amdgpu_synid_absolute_expression>`.
Examples:
neg_hi:[1,0] neg_hi:[0,1,1]

VOP3P V_MAD_MIX Modifiers
v_mad_mix* and v_fma_mix* instructions use op_sel and op_sel_hi modifiers in a manner different from regular VOP3P instructions.
See a description below.
GFX9 and GFX10 only.
m_op_sel
This operand has meaning only for 16-bit source operands as indicated by :ref:`m_op_sel_hi<amdgpu_synid_mad_mix_op_sel_hi>`. It specifies to select either the low [15:0] or high [31:16] operand bits as input to the operation.
The number of values specified by the op_sel modifier must match the number of source operands. First value controls src0, second value controls src1 and so on.
The value 0 indicates the low bits, the value 1 indicates the high 16 bits.
By default, low bits are used for all operands.
Syntax Description op_sel:[{0..1},{0..1},{0..1}] Select location of each 16-bit source operand.
Note: numeric values may be specified as either :ref:`integer numbers<amdgpu_synid_integer_number>` or :ref:`absolute expressions<amdgpu_synid_absolute_expression>`.
Examples:
op_sel:[0,1]
m_op_sel_hi
Selects the size of source operands: either 32 bits or 16 bits. By default, 32 bits are used for all source operands.
The number of values specified by the op_sel_hi modifier must match the number of source operands. First value controls src0, second value controls src1 and so on.
The value 0 indicates 32 bits, the value 1 indicates 16 bits.
The location of 16 bits in the operand may be specified by :ref:`m_op_sel<amdgpu_synid_mad_mix_op_sel>`.
Syntax Description op_sel_hi:[{0..1},{0..1},{0..1}] Select size of each source operand.
Note: numeric values may be specified as either :ref:`integer numbers<amdgpu_synid_integer_number>` or :ref:`absolute expressions<amdgpu_synid_absolute_expression>`.
Examples:
op_sel_hi:[1,1,1]
abs
See a description :ref:`here<amdgpu_synid_abs>`.
neg
See a description :ref:`here<amdgpu_synid_neg>`.
clamp
See a description :ref:`here<amdgpu_synid_clamp>`.
