MOVUPS — Move Unaligned Packed Single-Precision Floating-Point Values

Instruction Operand Encoding ¶

Description ¶

Note: VEX.vvvv and EVEX.vvvv is reserved and must be 1111b otherwise instructions will #UD.

EVEX.512 encoded version:

Moves 512 bits of packed single-precision floating-point values from the source operand (second operand) to the destination operand (first operand). This instruction can be used to load a ZMM register from a 512-bit float32 memory location, to store the contents of a ZMM register into memory. The destination operand is updated according to the writemask.

VEX.256 and EVEX.256 encoded versions:

Moves 256 bits of packed single-precision floating-point values from the source operand (second operand) to the destination operand (first operand). This instruction can be used to load a YMM register from a 256-bit memory location, to store the contents of a YMM register into a 256-bit memory location, or to move data between two YMM registers. Bits (MAXVL-1:256) of the destination register are zeroed.

128-bit versions: ¶

Moves 128 bits of packed single-precision floating-point values from the source operand (second operand) to the destination operand (first operand). This instruction can be used to load an XMM register from a 128-bit memory location, to store the contents of an XMM register into a 128-bit memory location, or to move data between two XMM registers.

128-bit Legacy SSE version: Bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding destination register remain unchanged.

When the source or destination operand is a memory operand, the operand may be unaligned without causing a general-protection exception (#GP) to be generated.

VEX.128 and EVEX.128 encoded versions: Bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the destination register are zeroed.

Operation ¶

VMOVUPS (EVEX encoded versions, register-copy form) ¶

(KL, VL) = (4, 128), (8, 256), (16, 512)
FOR j←0 TO KL-1
    i←j * 32
