US Patent 9960917 Matrix multiply accumulate instruction

A method is described. The method includes iteratively performing for each position in a result matrix stored in a third register, multiplying a value at a matrix position stored in a first register with a value at a matrix position stored in a second register to obtain a first multiplicative value, where the positions in the first register and the second register are determined by the position in the result matrix and performing an exclusive or (XOR) operation with the first multiplicative value and a value stored at a result matrix position stored in the third register to obtain a result value.
