X86-64 SIMD Programming
Daniel Kusswurm · Apress eBooks · 2014
This chapter explains how to code x86-64 assembly language functions that exploit the computational resources of x86-SSE and x86-AVX. The first section includes sample code that focuses on use of the x86-SSE instruction set. The second section exemplifies operation of the x86-AVX instruction set. Most of the x86-SSE and x86-AVX instructions exercised by the sample code in this chapter have already been examined in previous chapters. This allows the ensuing discussions to place more emphasis on algorithmic techniques and 64-bit processing methods instead of instruction execution minutiae. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
