VECTOR

VMUL multiplies each active destination element by its corresponding source element. For B, W, L, and Q elements, the low selected-width product replaces the destination element. The register form and the memory-source form write the result to the destination vector lane. An inactive destination lane retains its previous value.

The memory-destination form reads each active destination element, multiplies it by the corresponding source-register element, and writes the result back to that memory element. Inactive memory elements retain their previous values, making the destination transaction a lane-wise read-modify-write.
