摘要:
A method of an aspect includes receiving an instruction indicating a destination storage location. A result is stored in the destination storage location in response to the instruction. The result includes a sequence of at least four non-negative integers in numerical order with all integers in consecutive positions differing by a constant stride of at least two. In an aspect, storing the result including the sequence of the at least four integers is performed without calculating the at least four integers using a result of a preceding instruction. Other methods, apparatus, systems, and instructions are disclosed.

A method of an aspect includes receiving an instruction indicating a destination storage location. A result is stored in the destination storage location in response to the instruction. The result includes a sequence of at least four consecutive non-negative integers in numerical order. In an aspect, the instruction does not indicate a source packed data operand having a plurality of packed data elements in an architecturally-visible storage location. Other methods, apparatus, systems, and instructions are disclosed.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a processor having an inactive state of operation and methods thereof. The processor, according to some demonstrative embodiments of the invention, the processor may include a controller to determine an inactive state of operation is to be entered, and to cause a predetermined set of one or more execution units to execute a predetermined sequence of one or more micro-operations prior to entering the inactive state. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for handling floating point exceptions in a processor that executes single-instruction multiple-data (SIMD) instructions. In one embodiment a numerical exception is identified for a SIMD floating point operation and SIMD micro-operations are initiated to generate two packed partial results of a packed result for the SIMD floating point operation. A SIMD denormalization micro-operation is initiated to combine the two packed partial results and to denormalize one or more elements of the combined packed partial results to generate a packed result for the SIMD floating point operation having one or more denormal elements. Flags are set and stored with packed partial results to identify denormal elements. In one embodiment a SIMD normalization micro-operation is initiated to generate a normalized pseudo internal floating point representation prior to the SIMD floating point operation when it uses multiplication.

The throughput of an encryption/decryption operation is increased in a system having a pipelined execution unit. Different independent encryptions (decryptions) of different data blocks may be performed in parallel by dispatching an AES round instruction in every cycle.
