| <h2>Description</h2> |
| <p>Performs a full or partial save of processor state components to the XSAVE area located at the memory address specified by the destination operand. The implicit EDX:EAX register pair specifies a 64-bit instruction mask. The specific state components saved correspond to the bits set in the requested-feature bitmap (RFBM), which is the logical-AND of EDX:EAX and XCR0.</p> |
| <p>The format of the XSAVE area is detailed in Section 13.4, “XSAVE Area,” of <em>Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Soft-ware Developer’s Manual, Volume 1</em>.</p> |
| <p>Section 13.9, “Operation of XSAVEC,” of <em>Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual, Volume 1</em> provides a detailed description of the operation of the XSAVEC instruction. The following items provide a high-level outline:</p> |
| <p>Use of a destination operand not aligned to 64-byte boundary (in either 64-bit or 32-bit modes) results in a general-protection (#GP) exception. In 64-bit mode, the upper 32 bits of RDX and RAX are ignored.</p> |
| <h2>Operation</h2> |
| <pre>RFBM ← XCR0 AND EDX:EAX; |
| /* bitwise logical AND */ |
| COMPMASK ← RFBM OR 80000000_00000000H; |
| IF RFBM[0] = 1 and XINUSE[0] = 1 |
| 1. |
| There is an exception for state component 1 (SSE). MXCSR is part of SSE state, but XINUSE[1] may be 0 even if MXCSR does not have its initial value of 1F80H. In this case, XSAVEC saves SSE state as long as RFBM[1] = 1. |
| 2. |
| Unlike XSAVE and XSAVEOPT, XSAVEC clears bits in the XSTATE_BV field that correspond to bits that are clear in RFBM. |
| 3. |
| There is an exception for state component 1 (SSE). MXCSR is part of SSE state, but XINUSE[1] may be 0 even if MXCSR does not have its initial value of 1F80H. In this case, XSAVEC sets XSTATE_BV[1] to 1 as long as RFBM[1] = 1. |
| THEN store x87 state into legacy region of XSAVE area; |
| FI; |
| IF RFBM[1] = 1 and (XINUSE[1] = 1 or MXCSR ≠ 1F80H) |
| THEN store SSE state into legacy region of XSAVE area; |
| FI; |
| IF RFBM[2] = 1 AND XINUSE[2] = 1 |
| THEN store AVX state into extended region of XSAVE area; |
| FI; |
| XSTATE_BV field in XSAVE header ← XINUSE AND RFBM; |
| XCOMP_BV field in XSAVE header ← COMPMASK;</pre> |
