The five-volume set of the x86-64 Architecture Programmer's Manual, as published and distributed by AMD in 2002. x86-64 (also known as x64, x86_64, AMD64, and Intel 64) [note 1] is a 64-bit version of the x86 instruction set, first announced in 1999. It introduced two new modes of operation, 64-bit mode and compatibility mode, along with a new ...
Intel 64 and IA-32 Software Developer Manuals; AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual (Volume 1-5) Books. Ed, Jorgensen (May 2018).
Task state segment. The task state segment (TSS) is a structure on x86 -based computers which holds information about a task. It is used by the operating system kernel for task management. Specifically, the following information is stored in the TSS: Processor register state. I/O port permissions.
AMD publicly discloses its set of 64-bit extensions to IA-32, called x86-64 (later branded AMD64). 2000 IBM ships its first 64-bit z/Architecture mainframe, the zSeries z900. z/Architecture is a 64-bit version of the 32-bit ESA/390 architecture, a descendant of the 32-bit System/360 architecture. 2001
The XOP (eXtended Operations [1]) instruction set, announced by AMD on May 1, 2009, is an extension to the 128-bit SSE core instructions in the x86 and AMD64 instruction set for the Bulldozer processor core, which was released on October 12, 2011. [2] However AMD removed support for XOP from Zen (microarchitecture) onward. [3]
The CVT16 instruction set, announced by AMD on May 1, 2009, [2] is an extension to the 128-bit SSE core instructions in the x86 and AMD64 instruction set.. CVT16 is a revision of part of the SSE5 instruction set proposal announced on August 30, 2007, which is supplemented by the XOP and FMA4 instruction sets.
Bit manipulation instructions sets (BMI sets) are extensions to the x86 instruction set architecture for microprocessors from Intel and AMD. The purpose of these instruction sets is to improve the speed of bit manipulation. All the instructions in these sets are non- SIMD and operate only on general-purpose registers.
Socket 754 was the original socket for AMD's Athlon 64 desktop processors. Due to the introduction of newer socket layouts (i.e. Socket 939 and Socket AM2), Socket 754 became the more "budget-minded" socket for use with AMD Athlon 64 or Sempron processors. It differs from Socket 939 in several areas: support for a single channel memory ...
