_mm256_abs_epi8
ADD TO COMPARE ADDED TO COMPARE

 Intel 64-bit (64 bits)/ AVX2  View official documentation
 Location: Arithmetic  >  Vector Absolute Value
 CPU Extensions: AVX2
Purpose:
Compute the absolute value of packed signed 8-bit integers in a, and store the unsigned results in output.
Result:

A 256-bit vector of 32 x 8-bit signed integers that hold the absolute values of the input elements.

Example:
#include <immintrin.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
 __m256i a = _mm256_set_epi8(        -1, 2, -3, 4, -5, 6, -7, 8,        -9, 10, -11, 12, -13, 14, -15, 16,        -17, 18, -19, 20, -21, 22, -23, 24,        -25, 26, -27, 28, -29, 30, -31, 32    );
 __m256i d = _mm256_abs_epi8(a);
 int8_t result_data[32];
 _mm256_storeu_si256((__m256i*)result_data, d);
 for (int i = 0; i < 32; i++) {
   printf("%d ", result_data[i]);
  }
  printf("\n");

  return 0;
 }
