x86 instruction listings

The x86 instruction set refers to the set of instructions that x86-compatible microprocessors support. The instructions are usually part of an executable program, often stored as a computer file and executed on the processor.

The x86 instruction set has been extended several times, introducing wider registers and datatypes as well as new functionality.

x86 integer instructions

Main article: x86 assembly language

Below is the full 8086/8088 instruction set of Intel (81 instructions total). These instructions are also available in 32-bit mode, they operate instead on 32-bit registers (eax, ebx, etc.) and values instead of their 16-bit (ax, bx, etc.) counterparts. The updated instruction set is grouped according to architecture (i186, i286, i386, i486, i586/i686) and is referred to as (32-bit) x86 and (64-bit) x86-64 (also known as AMD64).

Original 8086/8088 instructions

This is the original instruction set. In the 'Notes' column, r means register, m means memory address and imm means immediate (i.e. a value).

Added with 80386

The 80386 added support for 32-bit operation to the x86 instruction set. This was done by widening the general-purpose registers to 32 bits and introducing the concepts of OperandSize and AddressSize – most instruction forms that would previously take 16-bit data arguments were given the ability to take 32-bit arguments by setting their OperandSize to 32 bits, and instructions that could take 16-bit address arguments were given the ability to take 32-bit address arguments by setting their AddressSize to 32 bits. (Instruction forms that work on 8-bit data continue to be 8-bit regardless of OperandSize. Using a data size of 16 bits will cause only the bottom 16 bits of the 32-bit general-purpose registers to be modified – the top 16 bits are left unchanged.)

The default OperandSize and AddressSize to use for each instruction is given by the D bit of the segment descriptor of the current code segment - D=0 makes both 16-bit, D=1 makes both 32-bit. Additionally, they can be overridden on a per-instruction basis with two new instruction prefixes that were introduced in the 80386:

• 66h: OperandSize override. Will change OperandSize from 16-bit to 32-bit if CS.D=0, or from 32-bit to 16-bit if CS.D=1.
• 67h: AddressSize override. Will change AddressSize from 16-bit to 32-bit if CS.D=0, or from 32-bit to 16-bit if CS.D=1.

The 80386 also introduced the two new segment registers FS and GS as well as the x86 control, debug and test registers.

The new instructions introduced in the 80386 can broadly be subdivided into two classes:

• Pre-existing opcodes that needed new mnemonics for their 32-bit OperandSize variants (e.g. CWDE, LODSD)
• New opcodes that introduced new functionality (e.g. SHLD, SETcc)

For instruction forms where the operand size can be inferred from the instruction's arguments (e.g. ADD EAX,EBX can be inferred to have a 32-bit OperandSize due to its use of EAX as an argument), new instruction mnemonics are not needed and not provided.

Added as instruction set extensions

Added with x86-64

These instructions can only be encoded in 64 bit mode. They fall in four groups:

• original instructions that reuse existing opcodes for a different purpose (MOVSXD replacing ARPL)
• original instructions with new opcodes (SWAPGS)
• existing instructions extended to a 64 bit address size (JRCXZ)
• existing instructions extended to a 64 bit operand size (remaining instructions)

Most instructions with a 64 bit operand size encode this using a REX.W prefix; in the absence of the REX.W prefix, the corresponding instruction with 32 bit operand size is encoded. This mechanism also applies to most other instructions with 32 bit operand size. These are not listed here as they do not gain a new mnemonic in Intel syntax when used with a 64 bit operand size.

Added with Intel CET

Intel CET (Control-Flow Enforcement Technology) adds two distinct features to help protect against security exploits such as return-oriented programming: a shadow stack (CET_SS), and indirect branch tracking (CET_IBT).

CET Subset	Instruction	Opcode	Description	Ring	Added in
CET_SS Shadow stack. When shadow stacks are enabled, return addresses are pushed on both the regular stack and the shadow stack when a function call is made. They are then both popped on return from the function call – if they do not match, then the stack is assumed to be corrupted, and a #CP exception is issued. The shadow stack is additionally required to be stored in specially marked memory pages which cannot be modified by normal memory store instructions.

	SETSSBSY	F3 0F 01 E8	Mark shadow stack busy
	CLRSSBSY m64	F3 0F AE /6	Clear shadow stack busy flag
CET_IBT Indirect Branch Tracking. When IBT is enabled, an indirect branch (jump, call, return) to any instruction that is not an ENDBR32/64 instruction will cause a #CP exception.	ENDBR32	F3 0F 1E FB	Terminate indirect branch in 32-bit mode	3	Tiger Lake
	ENDBR64	F3 0F 1E FA	Terminate indirect branch in 64-bit mode

Reads a 64-byte "command data" structure from memory (m512 argument) and writes atomically to a memory-mapped Enqueue Store device (register argument provides the memory address of this device, using ES segment and requiring 64-byte alignment.) Sets ZF=0 to indicate that device accepted the command, or ZF=1 to indicate that command was not accepted (e.g. queue full or the memory location was not an Enqueue Store device.)	3	Sapphire Rapids
	ENQCMDS r32/64,m512	F3 0F 38 F8 /r	Enqueue Command Supervisor. Differs from ENQCMD in that it can place an arbitrary PASID (process address-space identifier) and a privilege-bit in the "command data" to enqueue.	0

MCOMMIT Commit Stores To Memory.	MCOMMIT	F3 0F 01 FA	Ensure that all preceding stores in thread have been committed to memory, and that any errors encountered by these stores have been signalled to any associated error logging resources. The set of errors that can be reported and the logging mechanism are platform-specific. Sets EFLAGS.CF to 0 if any errors occurred, 1 otherwise.	3	Zen 2
INVLPGB Invalidate TLB Entries with broadcast.	INVLPGB	NP 0F 01 FE	Invalidate TLB Entries for a range of pages, with broadcast. The invalidation is performed on the processor executing the instruction, and also broadcast to all other processors in the system. rAX takes the virtual address to invalidate and some additional flags, ECX takes the number of pages to invalidate, and EDX specifies ASID and PCID to perform TLB invalidation for.	0	Zen 3
	TLBSYNC	NP 0F 01 FF	Synchronize TLB invalidations. Wait until all TLB invalidations signalled by preceding invocations of the INVLPGB instruction on the same logical processor have been responded to by all processors in the system. Instruction is serializing.

x87 floating-point instructions

The x87 coprocessor, if present, provides support for floating-point arithmetic. The coprocessor provides eight data registers, each holding one 80-bit floating-point value (1 sign bit, 15 exponent bits, 64 mantissa bits) – these registers are organized as a stack, with the top-of-stack register referred to as "st" or "st(0)", and the other registers referred to as st(1),st(2),...st(7). It additionally provides a number of control and status registers, including "PC" (precision control, to control whether floating-point operations should be rounded to 24, 53 or 64 mantissa bits) and "RC" (rounding control, to pick rounding-mode: round-to-zero, round-to-positive-infinity, round-to-negative-infinity, round-to-nearest-even) and a 4-bit condition code register "CC", whose four bits are individually referred to as C0,C1,C2 and C3). Not all of the arithmetic instructions provided by x87 obey PC and RC.

Undocumented instructions

Undocumented x86 instructions

The x86 CPUs contain undocumented instructions which are implemented on the chips but not listed in some official documents. They can be found in various sources across the Internet, such as Ralf Brown's Interrupt List and at sandpile.org

Some of these instructions are widely available across many/most x86 CPUs, while others are specific to a narrow range of CPUs.

Undocumented instructions that are widely available across many x86 CPUs include

Mnemonics	Opcodes	Description	Status
AAM imm8	D4 ib	ASCII-Adjust-after-Multiply. On the 8086, documented for imm8=0Ah only, which is used to convert a binary multiplication result to BCD. The actual operation is AH ← AL/imm8; AL ← AL mod imm8 for any imm8 value (except zero, which produces a divide-by-zero exception).	Available beginning with 8086, documented for imm8 values other than 0Ah since Pentium (earlier documentation lists no arguments).
AAD imm8	D5 ib	ASCII-Adjust-Before-Division. On the 8086, documented for imm8=0Ah only, which is used to convert a BCD value to binary for a following division instruction. The actual operation is AL ← (AL+(AH*imm8)) & 0FFh; AH ← 0 for any imm8 value.
SALC, SETALC	D6	Set AL depending on the value of the Carry Flag (a 1-byte alternative of SBB AL, AL)	Available beginning with 8086, but only documented since Pentium Pro.
ICEBP, INT1	F1	Single byte single-step exception / Invoke ICE	Available beginning with 80386, documented (as INT1) since Pentium Pro. Executes as undocumented instruction prefix on 8086 and 80286.
TEST r/m8,imm8	F6 /1 ib	Undocumented variants of the TEST instruction. Performs the same operation as the documented F6 /0 and F7 /0 variants, respectively.	Available since the 8086. Unavailable on some 80486 steppings.
TEST r/m16,imm16, TEST r/m32,imm32	F7 /1 iw, F7 /1 id
SHL, SAL	(D0..D3) /6, (C0..C1) /6 ib	Undocumented variants of the SHL instruction. Performs the same operation as the documented (D0..D3) /4 and (C0..C1) /4 ib variants, respectively.	Available since the 80186 (performs different operation on the 8086)
(multiple)	82 /(0..7) ib	Alias of opcode 80h, which provides variants of 8-bit integer instructions (ADD, OR, ADC, SBB, AND, SUB, XOR, CMP) with an 8-bit immediate argument.	Available since the 8086. Explicitly unavailable in 64-bit mode but kept and reserved for compatibility.
OR/AND/XOR r/m16,imm8	83 /(1,4,6) ib	16-bit OR/AND/XOR with a sign-extended 8-bit immediate.	Available on 8086, but only documented from 80386 onwards.
REPNZ MOVS	F2 (A4..A5)	The behavior of the F2 prefix (REPNZ, REPNE) when used with string instructions other than CMPS/SCAS is officially undefined, but there exists commercial software (e.g. the version of FDISK distributed with MS-DOS versions 3.30 to 6.22) that rely on it to behave in the same way as the documented F3 (REP) prefix.	Available since the 8086.
REPNZ STOS	F2 (AA..AB)
REP RET	F3 C3	The use of the REP prefix with the RET instruction is not listed as supported in either the Intel SDM or the AMD APM. However, AMD's optimization guide for the AMD-K8 describes the F3 C3 encoding as a way to encode a two-byte RET instruction – this is the recommended workaround for an issue in the AMD-K8's branch predictor that can cause branch prediction to fail for some 1-byte RET instructions. At least some versions of gcc are known to use this encoding.	Executes as RET on all known x86 CPUs.
NOP	67 90	NOP with address-size override prefix. The use of the 67h prefix for instructions without memory operands is listed by the Intel SDM (vol 2, section 2.1.1) as "reserved", but it is used in Microsoft Windows 95 as a workaround for a bug in the B1 stepping of Intel 80386.	Executes as NOP on 80386 and later.
NOP r/m	0F 1F /0	Official long NOP. Introduced in the Pentium Pro in 1995, but remained undocumented until March 2006.	Available on Pentium Pro and AMD K7 and later. Unavailable on AMD K6, AMD Geode LX, VIA Nehemiah.
NOP r/m	0F 0D /r	Reserved-NOP. Introduced in 65 nm Pentium 4. Intel documentation lists this opcode as NOP in opcode tables but not instruction listings since June 2005. From Broadwell onwards, 0F 0D /1 has been documented as PREFETCHW, while 0F 0D /0 and /2../7 have been reported to exhibit undocumented prefetch functionality. On AMD CPUs, 0F 0D /r with a memory argument is documented as PREFETCH/PREFETCHW since K6-2 – originally as part of 3Dnow!, but has been kept in later AMD CPUs even after the rest of 3Dnow! was dropped.	Available on Intel CPUs since 65 nm Pentium 4.
UD1	0F B9 /r	Intentionally undefined instructions, but unlike UD2 (0F 0B) these instructions were left unpublished until December 2016. Microsoft Windows 95 Setup is known to depend on 0F FF being invalid – it is used as a self check to test that its #UD exception handler is working properly. Other invalid opcodes that are being relied on by commercial software to produce #UD exceptions include FF FF (DIF-2, LaserLok) and C4 C4 ("BOP"), however as of January 2022 they are not published as intentionally invalid opcodes.	All of these opcodes produce #UD exceptions on 80186 and later (except on NEC V20/V30, which assign at least 0F FF to the NEC-specific BRKEM instruction.)
UD0	0F FF

Undocumented instructions that appear only in a limited subset of x86 CPUs include

Mnemonics	Opcodes	Description	Status
REP MUL	F3 F6 /4, F3 F7 /4	On 8086/8088, a REP or REPNZ prefix on a MUL or IMUL instruction causes the result to be negated. This is due to the microcode using the “REP prefix present” bit to store the sign of the result.	8086/8088 only.
REP IMUL	F3 F6 /5, F3 F7 /5
REP IDIV	F3 F6 /7, F3 F7 /7	On 8086/8088, a REP or REPNZ prefix on an IDIV (but not DIV) instruction causes the quotient to be negated. This is due to the microcode using the “REP prefix present” bit to store the sign of the quotient.	8086/8088 only.
SAVEALL, STOREALL	(F1) 0F 04	Exact purpose unknown, causes CPU hang (HCF). The only way out is CPU reset. In some implementations, emulated through BIOS as a halting sequence. In a forum post at the Vintage Computing Federation, this instruction (with F1 prefix) is explained as SAVEALL. It interacts with ICE mode.	Only available on 80286.
LOADALL	0F 05	Loads All Registers from Memory Address 0x000800H	Only available on 80286. Opcode reused for SYSCALL in AMD K6 and later CPUs.
LOADALLD	0F 07	Loads All Registers from Memory Address ES:EDI	Only available on 80386. Opcode reused for SYSRET in AMD K6 and later CPUs.
CL1INVMB	0F 0A	On the Intel SCC (Single-chip Cloud Computer), invalidate all message buffers. The mnemonic and operation of the instruction, but not its opcode, are described in Intel's SCC architecture specification.	Available on the SCC only.
PATCH2	0F 0E	On AMD K6 and later maps to FEMMS operation (fast clear of MMX state) but on Intel identified as uarch data read on Intel	Only available in Red unlock state (0F 0F too)
PATCH3	0F 0F	Write uarch	Can change RAM part of microcode on Intel
UMOV r,r/m, UMOV r/m,r	0F (10..13) /r	Moves data to/from user memory when operating in ICE HALT mode. Acts as regular MOV otherwise.	Available on some 386 and 486 processors only. Opcodes reused for SSE instructions in later CPUs.
NXOP	0F 55	NexGen hypercode interface.	Available on NexGen Nx586 only.
(multiple)	0F (E0..FB)	NexGen Nx586 "hyper mode" instructions. The NexGen Nx586 CPU uses "hyper code" (x86 code sequences unpacked at boot time and only accessible in a special "hyper mode" operation mode, similar to DEC Alpha's PALcode and Intel's XuCode) for many complicated operations that are implemented with microcode in most other x86 CPUs. The Nx586 provides a large number of undocumented instructions to assist hyper mode operation.	Available in Nx586 hyper mode only.
PSWAPW mm,mm/m64	0F 0F /r BB	Undocumented AMD 3DNow! instruction on K6-2 and K6-3. Swaps 16-bit words within 64-bit MMX register. Instruction known to be recognized by MASM 6.13 and 6.14.	Available on K6-2 and K6-3 only. Opcode reused for documented PSWAPD instruction from AMD K7 onwards.
Un­known mnemonic	64 D6	Using the 64 (FS: segment) prefix with the undocumented D6 (SALC/SETALC) instruction will, on UMC CPUs only, cause EAX to be set to 0xAB6B1B07.	Available on the UMC Green CPU only. Executes as SALC on non-UMC CPUs.
FS: Jcc	64 (70..7F) rel8, 64 0F (80..8F) rel16/32	On Intel NetBurst (Pentium 4) CPUs, the 64h (FS: segment) instruction prefix will, when used with conditional branch instructions, act as a branch hint to indicate that the branch will be alternating between taken and not-taken. Unlike other NetBurst branch hints (CS: and DS: segment prefixes), this hint is not documented.	Available on NetBurst CPUs only. Segment prefixes on conditional branches are accepted but ignored by non-NetBurst CPUs.
JMPAI	0F 3F	Jump and execute instructions in the undocumented Alternate Instruction Set.	Only available on some x86 processors made by VIA Technologies.
(FMA4)	VEX.66.0F38 (5C..5F,68..6F,78..7F) /r imm8	On AMD Zen1, FMA4 instructions are present but undocumented (missing CPUID flag). The reason for leaving the feature undocumented may or may not have been due to a buggy implementation.	Removed from Zen2 onwards.
(unknown, multiple)	0F 0F /r ??	The whitepapers for SandSifter and UISFuzz report the detection of large numbers of undocumented instructions in the 3DNow! opcode range on several different AMD CPUs (at least Geode NX and C-50). Their operation is not known. On at least AMD K6-2, all of the unassigned 3DNow! opcodes (other than the undocumented PF2IW, PI2FW and PSWAPW instructions) are reported to execute as equivalents of POR (MMX bitwise-OR instruction).	Present on some AMD CPUs with 3DNow!.
MOVDB, GP2MEM	Un­known	Microprocessor Report's article "MediaGX Targets Low-Cost PCs" from 1997, covering the introduction of the Cyrix MediaGX processor, lists several new instructions that are said to have been added to this processor in order to support its new "Virtual System Architecture" features, including MOVDB and GP2MEM – and also mentions that Cyrix did not intend to publish specifications for these instructions.	Unknown. No specification known to have been published.
REP XSHA512	F3 0F A6 E0	Perform SHA-512 hashing. Supported by OpenSSL as part of its VIA PadLock support, and listed in a Zhaoxin-supplied Linux kernel patch, but not documented by the VIA PadLock Programming Guide.	Only available on some x86 processors made by VIA Technologies and Zhaoxin.
REP XMODEXP	F3 0F A6 F8	Instructions to perform modular exponentiation and random number generation, respectively. Listed in a VIA-supplied patch to add support for VIA Nano-specific PadLock instructions to OpenSSL, but not documented by the VIA PadLock Programming Guide.
XRNG2	F3 0F A7 F8
Un­known mnemonic	0F A7 (C1..C7)	Detected by CPU fuzzing tools such as SandSifter and UISFuzz as executing without causing #UD on several different VIA and Zhaoxin CPUs. Unknown operation, may be related to the documented XSTORE (0F A7 C0) instruction.
Un­known mnemonic	F2 0F A6 C0	Zhaoxin SM2 instruction. CPUID flags listed in a Linux kernel patch for OpenEuler, description and opcode (but no instruction mnemonic) provided in a Zhaoxin patent application and a Zhaoxin-provided Linux kernel patch.	Present in Zhaoxin KX-6000G.
ZXPAUSE	F2 0F A6 D0	Pause the processor until the Time Stamp Counter reaches or exceeds the value specified in EDX:EAX. Low-power processor C-state can be requested in ECX. Listed in OpenEuler kernel patch.	Present in Zhaoxin KX-7000.
MONTMUL2	Un­known	Zhaoxin RSA/"xmodx" instructions. Mnemonics and CPUID flags are listed in a Linux kernel patch for OpenEuler, but opcodes and instruction descriptions are not available.	Unknown. Some Zhaoxin CPUs have the CPUID flags for these instructions set.

Undocumented x87 instructions

Mnemonics	Opcodes	Description	Status
FENI, FENI8087_NOP	DB E0	FPU Enable Interrupts (8087)	Documented for the Intel 80287. Present on all Intel x87 FPUs from 80287 onwards. For FPUs other than the ones where they were introduced on (8087 for FENI/FDISI and 80287 for FSETPM), they act as NOPs. These instructions and their operation on modern CPUs are commonly mentioned in later Intel documentation, but with opcodes omitted and opcode table entries left blank (e.g. Intel SDM 325462-077, April 2022 mentions them twice without opcodes). The opcodes are, however, recognized by Intel XED.
FDISI, FDISI8087_NOP	DB E1	FPU Disable Interrupts (8087)
FSETPM, FSETPM287_NOP	DB E4	FPU Set Protected Mode (80287)
(no mnemonic)	D9 D7,  D9 E2, D9 E7,  DD FC, DE D8,  DE DA, DE DC,  DE DD, DE DE,  DF FC	"Reserved by Cyrix" opcodes	These opcodes are listed as reserved opcodes that will produce "unpredictable results" without generating exceptions on at least Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX, MII, MediaGX, and AMD Geode GX/LX. (The documentation for these CPUs all list the same ten opcodes.) Their actual operation is not known, nor is it known whether their operation is the same on all of these CPUs.
