Subject: [PATCH v2 6/8] KVM: x86 emulator: Specialize decoding for insns with 66/f2/f3 prefixes
Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 14:54:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1301403243-23524-7-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1301403243-23524-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>
Most SIMD instructions use the 66/f2/f3 prefixes to distinguish between
different variants of the same instruction. Usually the encoding is quite
regular, but in some cases (including non-SIMD instructions) the prefixes
generate very different instructions. Examples include XCHG/PAUSE,
MOVQ/MOVDQA/MOVDQU, and MOVBE/CRC32.
Allow the emulator to handle these special cases by splitting such opcodes
into groups, with different decode flags and execution functions for different
prefixes.
