Instruction Set (Continued)

9.1.1

Prefix (Optional)

Prefix bytes can be placed in front of any instruction to

modify the operation of that instruction. When more than

one prefix is used, the order is not important. There are

five types of prefixes that can be used:

Segment Override explicitly specifies which segment

calculation.

Address Size switches between 16-bit and 32-bit

addressing by selecting the non-default address size.

Operand Size switches between 16-bit and 32-bit

operand size by selecting the non-default operand

size.

Repeat is used with a string instruction to cause the

instruction to be repeated for each element of the

string.

Lock is used to assert the hardware LOCK# signal

during execution of the instruction.

Table 9-3 lists the encoding for different types of prefix

bytes.

9.1.2

Opcode

The opcode field specifies the operation to be performed

by the instruction. The opcode field is either one or two

bytes in length and may be further defined by additional

bits in the mod r/m byte. Some operations have more than

one opcode, each specifying a different form of the opera-

tion. Certain opcodes name instruction groups. For exam-

ple, opcode 80h names a group of operations that have

an immediate operand and a register or memory operand.

The reg field may appear in the second opcode byte or in

the mod r/m byte.

The opcode may contain w, d, s and eee opcode fields as

shownin the Table9-27 on page213

9.1.2.1

w Field (Operand Size)

When used, the 1-bit w field selects the operand size dur-

ing 16-bit and 32-bit data operations. See Table 9-4.
