Copy all bits of the source argument, then clear the lowest set bit. Equivalent to dst = (src-1) AND src: BMI2 Bit Manipulation Instruction Set 2: BZHI ra,r/m,rb: VEX.LZ.0F38 F5 /r: Zero out high-order bits in r/m starting from the bit position specified in rb, then write result to rd. Equivalent to ra = r/m AND NOT(-1 << rb[7:0]) Haswell ...
Instruction set extensions that have been added to the x86 instruction set in order to support hardware virtualization.These extensions provide instructions for entering and leaving a virtualized execution context and for loading virtual-machine control structures (VMCSs), which hold the state of the guest and host, along with fields which control processor behavior within the virtual machine.
While what these instructions do is similar to bit level gather-scatter SIMD instructions, PDEP and PEXT instructions (like the rest of the BMI instruction sets) operate on general-purpose registers. [12] The instructions are available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. An example using arbitrary source and selector in 32-bit mode is:
The x86 instruction set has several times been extended with SIMD (Single instruction, multiple data) instruction set extensions.These extensions, starting from the MMX instruction set extension introduced with Pentium MMX in 1997, typically define sets of wide registers and instructions that subdivide these registers into fixed-size lanes and perform a computation for each lane in parallel.
x86-64 (also known as x64, x86_64, AMD64, and Intel 64) [note 1] is a 64-bit extension of the x86 instruction set architecture first announced in 1999. It introduces two new operating modes: 64-bit mode and compatibility mode, along with a new four-level paging mechanism.
Perform a carry-less multiplication of two 64-bit polynomials over the finite field GF(2 k). PCLMULLQLQDQ xmm1,xmm2/m128: 66 0F 3A 44 /r 00: Multiply the low halves of the two 128-bit operands. PCLMULHQLQDQ xmm1,xmm2/m128: 66 0F 3A 44 /r 01: Multiply the high half of the destination register by the low half of the source operand. PCLMULLQHQDQ ...
This is a list of commands from the GNU Core Utilities for Unix environments. These commands can be found on Unix operating systems and most Unix-like operating systems. GNU Core Utilities include basic file, shell and text manipulation utilities. Coreutils includes all of the basic command-line tools that are expected in a POSIX system.
The XSAVE instruction set extension is designed to save/restore CPU extended state (typically for the purpose of context switching) in a manner that can be extended to cover new instruction set extensions without the OS context-switching code needing to understand the specifics of the new extensions.
