Packed Shuffle Word for 64-bit Registers
The pshuf instruction (see Figure 4-8, Example 4-11) uses the
immediate (
imm8) operand to select between the four words in either
two MMX registers or one MMX register and a 64-bit memory location.
Bits 1 and 0 of the immediate value encode the source for destination
word 0 in MMX register (
[15-0]), and so on as shown in the table:
Bits 7 and 6 encode for word 3 in MMX register (
[63-48]). Similarly,
the 2-bit encoding represents which source word is used, for example,
binary encoding of 10 indicates that source word 2 in MMX
register/memory (
mm/mem[47-32]) is used, see Figure 4-8 and
Example 4-11.
