Operation

Pseudo-C · selected form
dst = sign_extend(src, 64)

Simplified pseudocode for the selected form.

Exact upstream semantics

Standard variant

Source: intel/MOVSX-MOVSXD-Move-With-Sign-Extension.xml/0

let result := Sign_Extend(src, operand_size);

Parameterized by register and element size; from the pinned upstream definition.

Architectural details

Flags
RFLAGS unchanged.
Destination
Writes the full 64-bit destination register.
Encoding
REX.W + 63 /r
Operands
  • r64write · 64 bits · signed
  • r32read · 32 bits · signed
Coverage
Selected scalar forms in 64-bit execution mode. 8/16-bit arithmetic, APX and unlisted encoding alternatives are outside this selection.
Exception information & execution requirements
  • #UD

Imported exceptions are checks exposed by this XML form; memory, stack, instruction-fetch and called architectural helpers can introduce additional faults.

Feature availability alone does not guarantee execution: OS state and execution-level controls also apply. Use the linked architecture documentation for the full exception conditions.

Performance measurements are not included in this preview. Latency and throughput depend on the exact form and microarchitecture. Measured data on uops.info ↗
