vdot4aus.vx
Vector 4-element unsigned-signed dot-product accumulate (vector-scalar)
This instruction is defined by:
Synopsis
Computes the dot product of four unsigned 8-bit elements from vs2 and four
signed 8-bit elements packed/replicated from the scalar xs1, sums the
four products, and accumulates the signed 32-bit result into the
corresponding 32-bit element of vd.
This vector-scalar variant exists to save encoding space: the unsigned-vs2/signed-vs1 vector-vector combination is not separately encoded, since operand order can simply be swapped to use vdot4asu.vv instead. That swap isn’t possible for the vector-scalar form, since the scalar operand’s signedness is fixed to `xs1’s position, so this variant is provided explicitly.
