Instruction
MOVRS
Loads a register from memory with a hint that other cores are likely to read the same data before it is written.
Forms
| Instruction | Encoding | Requires |
|---|---|---|
MOVRS r32, m32 64-bit mode only
MOVRS_GPRv_MEMv | 0F 38 8B /r | MOVRS |
MOVRS r8, m8 64-bit mode only
MOVRS_GPR8i8_MEMi8 | 0F 38 8A /r | MOVRS |
MOVRS r16/32/64, m16/32/64
MOVRS_GPRv_MEMv_APX | EVEX.LLZ.NP.MAP4.SCALABLE 8B /r | APX_F + MOVRS |
MOVRS r8, m8
MOVRS_GPR8i8_MEMi8_APX | EVEX.LLZ.NP.MAP4.W0 8A /r | APX_F + MOVRS |
Intrinsics
The C intrinsics of Clang 23.1.2 that compile to MOVRS, each with the form it compiles to and the Clang options it needs. The forms come from compiling every intrinsic and decoding the result with Intel XED; all intrinsics A–Z explains the method.
| Intrinsic | Compiles to |
|---|---|
_movrs_i16
short _movrs_i16(const void *__A) |
|
_movrs_i32
int _movrs_i32(const void *__A) |
|
_movrs_i64
long long _movrs_i64(const void *__A) |
|
_movrs_i8
char _movrs_i8(const void *__A) |
|
CPUID and processors
Each form belongs to an XED ISA set. A form can be used when the processor reports every CPUID bit of one of its ISA set's alternatives.
| ISA set | CPUID | Processors in XED |
|---|---|---|
MOVRS | MOVRS | Nova Lake, Diamond Rapids |
APX_F_MOVRS | APX_F + MOVRS | Nova Lake, Diamond Rapids |
