Description ¶

This instruction executes as described above in compatibility mode and legacy mode. It is valid in 64-bit mode only if CPUID.80000001H:ECX.LAHF-SAHF[bit 0] = 1.

Operation ¶

IF 64-Bit Mode
    THEN
        IF CPUID.80000001H:ECX.LAHF-SAHF[bit 0] = 1;
            THEN AH ← RFLAGS(SF:ZF:0:AF:0:PF:1:CF);
            ELSE #UD;
        FI;
    ELSE
        AH ← EFLAGS(SF:ZF:0:AF:0:PF:1:CF);
FI;

Flags Affected ¶

None. The state of the flags in the EFLAGS register is not affected.
