<h2>Description</h2>
<p>Clears the AC flag bit in EFLAGS register. This disables any alignment checking of user-mode data accesses. If the SMAP bit is set in the CR4 register, this disallows explicit supervisor-mode data accesses to user-mode pages.</p>
<p>This instruction's operation is the same in non-64-bit modes and 64-bit mode. Attempts to execute CLAC when CPL &gt; 0 cause #UD.</p>
<h2>Operation</h2>
<pre>EFLAGS.AC ← 0;</pre>
<h2>Flags Affected</h2>
<p>AC cleared. Other flags are unaffected.</p>
