    Abstract: A processor of an aspect includes a decode unit to decode a matrix multiplication instruction. The matrix multiplication instruction is to indicate a first memory location of a first source matrix, is to indicate a second memory location of a second source matrix, and is to indicate a third memory location where a result matrix is to be stored. The processor also includes an execution unit coupled with the decode unit. The execution unit, in response to the matrix multiplication instruction, is to multiply a portion of the first and second source matrices prior to an interruption, and store a completion progress indicator in response to the interruption. The completion progress indicator to indicate an amount of progress in multiplying the first and second source matrices, and storing corresponding result data to the third memory location, that is to have been completed prior to the interruption.
