Itanium instructions

These instructions are only present in the x86 operation mode of early Intel Itanium processors with hardware support for x86. This support was added in "Merced" and removed in "Montecito", replaced with software emulation.

MPX instructions

Template:Main

These instructions were introduced in 6th generation Intel Core "Skylake" CPUs. The last CPU generation to support them was the 9th generation Core "Coffee Lake" CPUs.

Intel MPX adds 4 new registers, BND0 to BND3, that each contains a pair of addresses. MPX also defines a bounds-table as a 2-level directory/table data structure in memory that contains sets of upper/lower bounds.

Instruction OpcodeTemplate:Efn Description
BNDMK b, m Template:NowrapTemplate:Efn Make lower and upper bound from memory address expression.

The lower bound is given by base component of address, the upper bound by 1-s complement of the address as a whole.

BNDCL b, r/m F3 0F 1A /r Check address against lower bound.

BNDCL, BNDCU and BNDCL all produce a #BR exception if the bounds check fails.

Hardware Lock Elision

The Hardware Lock Elision feature of Intel TSX is marked in the Intel SDM as removed from 2019 onwards.[2] This feature took the form of two instruction prefixes, XACQUIRE and XRELEASE, that could be attached to memory atomics/stores to elide the memory locking that they represent.

Instruction prefix Opcode Description
XACQUIRE F2 Instruction prefix to indicate start of hardware lock elision, used with memory atomic instructions only (for other instructions, the F2 prefix may have other meanings). When used with such instructions, may start a transaction instead of performing the memory atomic operation.
XRELEASE F3 Instruction prefix to indicate end of hardware lock elision, used with memory atomic/store instructions only (for other instructions, the F3 prefix may have other meanings). When used with such instructions during hardware lock elision, will end the associated transaction instead of performing the store/atomic.

VP2Intersect instructions

The VP2INTERSECT instructions (an AVX-512 subset) were introduced in Tiger Lake (11th generation mobile Core processors), but were never officially supported on any other Intel processors - they are now considered deprecated[3] and are listed in the Intel SDM as removed from 2023 onwards.[2]

As of July 2024, the VP2INTERSECT instructions have been re-introduced on AMD Zen 5 processors.[4]

Instructions specific to Xeon Phi processors

"Knights Corner" instructions

The first generation Xeon Phi processors, codenamed "Knights Corner" (KNC), supported a large number of instructions that are not seen in any later x86 processor. An instruction reference is available[5] − the instructions/opcodes unique to KNC are the ones with VEX and MVEX prefixes (except for the KMOV, KNOT and KORTEST instructions − these are kept with the same opcodes and function in AVX-512, but with an added "W" appended to their instruction names).

Most of these KNC-unique instructions are similar but not identical to instructions in AVX-512 − later Xeon Phi processors replaced these instructions with AVX-512.

Early versions of AVX-512 avoided the instruction encodings used by KNC's MVEX prefix, however with the introduction of Intel APX (Advanced Performance Extensions) in 2023, some of the old KNC MVEX instruction encodings have been reused for new APX encodings. For example, both KNC and APX accept the instruction encoding Template:Nowrap as valid, but assign different meanings to it:

Template:Vpad

"Knights Landing" and "Knights Mill" instructions

Some of the AVX-512 instructions in the Xeon Phi "Knights Landing" and later models belong to the AVX-512 subsets "AVX512ER", "AVX512_4FMAPS", "AVX512PF" and "AVX512_4VNNIW", all of which are unique to the Xeon Phi series of processors. The ER and PF subsets were introduced in "Knights Landing" − the 4FMAPS and 4VNNIW instructions were later added in "Knights Mill". Template:Vpad The ER and 4FMAPS instructions are floating-point arithmetic instructions that all follow a given pattern where:

  • EVEX.W is used to specify floating-point format (0=FP32, 1=FP64)
  • The bottom opcode bit is used to select between packed and scalar operation (0: packed, 1:scalar)
  • For a given operation, all the scalar/packed variants belong to the same AVX-512 subset.
  • The instructions all support result masking by opmask registers. The AVX512ER instructions also all support broadcast of memory operands.
  • The only supported vector width is 512 bits.

Template:Notelist Template:Vpad The AVX512PF instructions are a set of 16 prefetch instructions. These instructions all use VSIB encoding, where a memory addressing mode using the SIB byte is required, and where the index part of the SIB byte is taken to index into the AVX512 vector register file rather than the GPR register file. The selected AVX512 vector register is then interpreted as a vector of indexes, causing the standard x86 base+index+displacement address calculation to be performed for each vector lane, causing one associated memory operation (prefetches in case of the AVX512PF instructions) to be performed for each active lane. The instruction encodings all follow a pattern where:

  • EVEX.W is used to specify format of the prefetchable data (0:FP32, 1:FP64)
  • The bottom bit of the opcode is used to indicate whether the AVX512 index register is considered a vector of sixteen signed 32-bit indexes (bit 0 not set) or eight signed 64-bit indexes (bit 0 set)
  • The instructions all support operation masking by opmask registers.
  • The only supported vector width is 512 bits.

Template:Vpad The AVX512_4VNNIW instructions read a 128-bit data item from memory, containing 4 two-component vectors (each component being signed 16-bit). Then, for each of 4 consecutive AVX-512 registers, they will, for each 32-bit lane, interpret the lane as a two-component vector (signed 16-bit) and perform a dot-product with the corresponding two-component vector that was read from memory (the first two-component vector from memory is used for the first AVX-512 source register, and so on). These results are then accumulated into a destination vector register.

Template:Vpad Xeon Phi processors (from Knights Landing onwards) also featured the PREFETCHWT1 m8 instruction (opcode 0F 0D /2, prefetch into L2 cache with intent to write) − these were the only Intel CPUs to officially support this instruction, but it continues to be supported on some non-Intel processors (e.g. Zhaoxin YongFeng). Template:Vpad

AMD instructions

Am386 SMM instructions

A handful of instructions to support System Management Mode were introduced in the Am386SXLV and Am386DXLV processors.[6][7] They were also present in the later Am486SXLV/DXLV and Elan SC300/310 processors.[8]

The SMM functionality of these processors was implemented using Intel ICE microcode without a valid license, resulting in a lawsuit that AMD lost in late 1994.[9] As a result of this loss, the ICE microcode was removed from all later AMD CPUs, and the SMM instructions removed with it.

RES3 0F 07 Return from SMM interrupt handler (Am386SXLV/DXLV only)
Takes a pointer in ES:EDI to a processor save state to resume from − this save state has format nearly identical to that of the undocumented Intel 386 LOADALL instruction.[11]
RES4 0F 07 Return from SMM interrupt handler (Am486SXLV/DXLV only).
Similar to RES3, but with a different save state format.[12]

These SMM instructions were also present on the IBM 386SLC and its derivatives (albeit with the LOADALL-like SMM return opcode 0F 07 named ICERET),[11][13][10] as well as on the UMC U5S processor.[14]

3DNow! instructions

Template:Main

The 3DNow! instruction set extension was introduced in the AMD K6-2, mainly adding support for floating-point SIMD instructions using the MMX registers (two FP32 components in a 64-bit vector register). The instructions were mainly promoted by AMD, but were supported on some non-AMD CPUs as well. The processors supporting 3DNow! were:

  • AMD K6-2, K6-III, and all processors based on the K7, K8 and K10 microarchitectures. (Later AMD microarchitectures such as Bulldozer, Bobcat and Zen do not support 3DNow!)
  • IDT WinChip 2 and 3
  • VIA Cyrix III (both "Joshua" and "Samuel" variants), and the "Samuel" and "Ezra" revisions of VIA C3. (Later VIA CPUs, from C3 "Nehemiah" onwards, dropped 3DNow! in favor of SSE.)
  • National Semiconductor Geode GX2; AMD Geode GX and LX.

The 3DNow! specification[15] does not directly specify the operation performed by the PFRCPIT1, PFRSQIT1 and PFRCPIT2 instructions − instead, it imposes requirements on the results of using these instructions together in specific ways:Template:Efn

PFRCP mm1,mm0
PFRCPIT1 mm0,mm1

SSE5 derived instructions

SSE5 was a proposed SSE extension by AMD, using a new "DREX" instruction encoding to add support for new 3-operand and 4-operand instructions to SSE.[17] The bundle did not include the full set of Intel's SSE4 instructions, making it a competitor to SSE4 rather than a successor.

AMD chose not to implement SSE5 as originally proposed − it was instead reworked into FMA4 and XOP,[18] which provided similar functionality but with a quite different instruction encoding − using the VEX prefix for the FMA4 instructions and the new VEX-like XOP prefix for most of the remaining instructions.

XOP instructions

Introduced with the Bulldozer processor core, removed again from Zen (microarchitecture) onward.

A revision of most of the SSE5 instruction set.

The XOP instructions mostly make use of the XOP prefix, which is a 3-byte prefix with the following layout:

Byte 0 Byte 1 Byte 2
Bits 7:0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
Usage 8Fh mmmmm W v̅v̅v̅v̅ L pp

where:

  • Overlines indicate inverted bits.
  • The R/X/B bits are argument extension bits similar to the RXB bits of the REX prefix.
  • mmmmm is an opcode-map specifier. While capable of encoding values from 8 to 31 (values 0 to 7 map to ModR/M-encoded variants of the older POP instruction, making them unusable for XOP), only maps 8, 9 and 0Ah were ever used: map 8 for instructions that take an 8-bit immediate, map 9 for instructions that don't take an immediate, and map 0Ah for instructions that take a 32-bit immediate.
  • W is used in a couple of different ways:
    • For XOP vector instructions, W is used to swap the last two vector source arguments to the instruction. For instructions that allow W=1, encodings with W=0 allow the second-to-last vector argument to be a memory argument, while encodings with W=1 allow the last vector argument to be a memory argument. For instructions that don't allow their last two vector arguments to be swapped, W is required to be 0.
    • For XOP-encoded integer-register instructions (the TBM and LWP instruction set extensions, see below), W is used for operand size. (0=32-bit, 1=64-bit)
  • vvvv is an extra source register argument, normally the first non-r/m source argument for instructions with ≥3 register arguments.
  • L is a vector length specifier. L=1 indicates 256-bit operation, L=0 indicates scalar or 128-bit operation.
  • pp is an embedded prefix − nominally 0/1/2/3=none/66h/F2h/F3h, but only 0 was ever used with any of the instructions defined for the XOP prefix.

  • 1: LE (less-than-or-equal)
  • 2: GT (greater-than)
  • 3: GE (greater-than-or-equal)

Packed Permute Bytes.

For VPPERM dst,src1,src2,src3, src2:src1 are considered a 32-element vector of bytes. For each byte-lane, the byte in src3 is used to index into this 32-byte vector and transform the element:

  • bits 4:0 is used to pick one of the 32 bytes.
  • bits 7:6 specify a transform to perform on the byte (0=keep, 1=bitreverse, 2=set-to-zero, 3=replicate-MSB)
  • bit 5, if set, inverts the result after the transform.

AMD introduced TBM together with BMI1 in its Piledriver[22] line of processors; later AMD Jaguar and Zen-based processors do not support TBM.[23] No Intel processors (as of 2023) support TBM.

The TBM instructions are all encoded using the XOP prefix. They are all available in 32-bit and 64-bit forms, selected with the XOP.W bit (0=32bit, 1=64bit). (XOP.W is ignored outside 64-bit mode.) Like all instructions encoded with VEX/XOP prefixes, they are unavailable in Real Mode and Virtual-8086 mode.

Lightweight Profiling instructions

The AMD Lightweight Profiling (LWP) feature was introduced in AMD Bulldozer and removed in AMD Zen. On all supported CPUs, the latest available microcode updates have disabled LWP due to Spectre mitigations.[26]

These instructions are available in Ring 3, but not available in Real Mode and Virtual-8086 mode. All of them use the XOP prefix.

Instruction Opcode Description
LLWPCB r32/64 XOP.9 12 /0 Load LWPCB (Lightweight Profiling Control Block) address.Template:Efn

Loading an address of 0 disables LWP. Loading a nonzero address will cause the CPU to perform validation of the specified LWPCB, then enable LWP if the validation passed. If LWP was already enabled, state for the previous LWPCB is flushed to memory.

SLWPCB r32/64 XOP.9 12 /1 Store LWPCB addressTemplate:Efn to register, and flush LWP state to memory.

If LWP is not enabled, the stored address is 0.

Template:Nowrap Template:Nowrap Insert user event record with EventID=255 in LWP ring buffer. The arguments are inserted into the event record as follows:
  • The first argument is stored in bytes 23:16 (zero-extended if 32-bit)
  • The second argument is stored in bytes 7:4
  • The low 16 bits of the imm32 are stored in bytes 3:2 (the high 16 bits are ignored)

The LWPINS instruction sets CF=1 if LWP is enabled and the ring buffer is full, CF=0 otherwise.

Template:Nowrap Template:Nowrap Decrement the event counter associated with the programmed value sample event. If the resulting counter value ends up negative, insert an event record with EventID=1 in LWP ring buffer. (The instruction arguments are inserted in this record in the same way as for LWPINS.)

Executes as NOP if LWP is not enabled or if the event counter is not enabled. If no event record is inserted, then the second argument (which may be a memory argument) is not accessed.

MOVSPB r16 0F 95 /7 Transfer SS and SP of current register bank to register bank indicated by low 3 bits of r16.
Template:Nowrap Template:Nowrap Bit Test and Clear.

The first argument specifies a V25/V35 Special Function Register to test a bit in. The second argument specifies a bit position in that register. The third argument specifies a short branch offset. If the bit was set to 1, then it is cleared and a short branch is taken, else the branch is not taken.

STOP 0F 9E CPU Halt.

Differs from the conventional 8086 HLT instruction in that the clock is stopped too, so that an NMI or CPU reset is needed to resume operation.

BRKS imm8 F1 ib Break and Enable Software Guard.

Jump to an address picked from the IVT using the imm8 argument, and then continue execution with "Software Guard" enabled. The "Software Guard" is an 8-bit Substitution cipher that, during instruction fetch/decode, translates opcode bytes using a 256-entry lookup table stored in an on-chip Mask ROM.

V25, V35 "Software Guard"[33]

Cyrix EMMI instructions

These instructions were introduced in the Cyrix 6x86MX and MII processors, and were also present in the MediaGXm and Geode GX1[46] processors. (In later non-Cyrix processors, all of their opcodes have been used for SSE or SSE2 instructions.)

These instructions are integer SIMD instructions acting on 64-bit vectors in MMX registers or memory. Each instruction takes two explicit operands, where the first one is an MMX register operand and the second one is either a memory operand or a second MMX register. In addition, several of the instructions take an implied operand, which is an MMX register implied from the first operand as follows:

First explicit operand mm0 mm1 mm2 mm3 mm4 mm5 mm6 mm7
Implied operand mm1 mm0 mm3 mm2 mm5 mm4 mm7 mm6

In the instruction descriptions in the below table, arg1 and arg2 refer to the two explicit operands of the instruction, and imp to the implied operand.

Instructions specific to ALi/Nvidia/DM&P M6117 MCUs

The M6117 series of embedded microcontrollers feature an Intel 386SX compatible CPU core derived from V.M. Technology (VMT) VM386SX+ processor. VMT VM386SX+ adds a few processor specific additions to the Intel 386 instruction set. The ones documented for DM&P M6117D are:[55]

Instruction Opcode Description
BRKPM F1 System management interrupt − enters "hyper state mode"
RETPM D6 E6 Return from "hyper state mode"
Template:Nowrap Template:Nowrap Set page address of SMI entry point
(mnemonic not listed) Template:Nowrap Read page address of SMI entry point
MOV PWRCR,EAX D6 FA 03 02 Write to power control register

Instructions present in specific 80387 clones

Several 80387-class floating-point coprocessors provided extra instructions in addition to the standard 80387 ones − none of these are supported in later processors:
