Apart from xsave and related stuff (the last four instructions), they all should be fully supported by now (unless you find any bugs).

Hi there!

I'm new to FASM, and I just want to know which of the following instructions are supported. I have compiled this list myself after reading the Intel Architecture Reference Manual and compared all instructions found there with all the ones found in FASM reference manual. The instructions below are *not* mentioned in the FASM reference manual, but I guess that's because it's not been updated yet?


All SSE4 stuff was just added recently, so Tomasz has openly admitted that docs will follow later (much less priority).

The best way to see if FASM supports what you want is to try it. But I just grepped the sources for you, and it seems to support everything you mentioned except the following differences:

movbe -> cmovbe, fcmovbe
pmovsx -> -bd, -bq, -bw, -dq, -wd, -wq (suffixed variants)
pmovzx -> -bd, -bq, -bw, -dq, -wd, -wq (suffixed variants)

Not supported yet:

xgetbv, xrstor, xsave, xsetbv

N.B. I don't know any of this stuff, so I had to search. Apparently 45nm E0/R0 steppings (Aug. 2008: Penryn, Wolfdale, Yorkfield, Harpertown, Dunnington) add XSAVE and XRSTOR, but Wikipedia doesn't list those under SSE4, so maybe that's useful for future AVX only?

Yes, they are related to AVX (vid just found it out for me). For my discussion about AVX (and its future support in fasm), see this thread: SSE5 vs AVX.

Ok, thx for the quick answer!

btw, I think it is important to have at least a list of all supported instructions in the documentation. And instead of writing description of each instruction, you could simply make a reference to the Intel docs. This way, no one can complain about errors in the FASM doc regarding instructions. The errors will instead be in the Intel docs.

The reference manual is ~about 2 years out of date. Check the source (TABLES.INC) for which instructions are supported.
