Hi Andrew Dinn,

Ah~ Perhaps the armARM doc is hard to read sometimes.

In the D.a version:
- The FMAXV instruction is defined in section C7.2.103 on page 1501-1502.
- The FMINV instruction is defined in section C7.2.113 on page 1521-1522.
- Section C7.2.104 which follows the FMAXV section defines the "FMIN (vector)" instruction. This is actually the binary vector operation, not used for reduction fmin.

The armARM just sorts these sections in alphabetical order. Opposite instructions are not necessarily adjacent.

I've already posted it in a new thread. See
