Subject: [PATCH v6 1/2] x86, mwaitt: add monitorx and mwaitx instruction
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2015 11:18:51 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438744732-1459-2-git-send-email-ray.huang@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1438744732-1459-1-git-send-email-ray.huang@amd.com>
On AMD Carrizo processors (Family 15h, Model 60h-6fh), there is a new
feature called MWAITT (MWAIT with a timer) as an extension of
MONITOR/MWAIT.
MWAITT, another name is MWAITX (MWAIT with extensions), has a configurable
timer that causes MWAITX to exit on expiration.
Compared with MONITOR/MWAIT, there are minor differences in opcode and
input parameters.
MWAITX ECX[1]: enable timer if set
MWAITX EBX[31:0]: max wait time expressed in SW P0 clocks
MWAIT MWAITX
opcode 0f 01 c9 | 0f 01 fb
ECX[0] value of RFLAGS.IF seen by instruction
ECX[1] unused/#GP if set | enable timer if set
ECX[31:2] unused/#GP if set
EAX unused (reserve for hint)
EBX[31:0] unused | max wait time (loops)
MONITOR MONITORX
opcode 0f 01 c8 | 0f 01 fa
EAX (logical) address to monitor
ECX #GP if not zero
The software P0 frequency is the same as the TSC frequency.
Max timeout = EBX/(TSC frequency)
