METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR EXPANDING A MASK TO A VECTOR OF MASK VALUES |
| 摘要 |
An apparatus and method for performing a mask expand. For example, one embodiment of a processor comprises: a source mask register to store a plurality of mask values; mask expand logic to identify a first mask bit in the source mask register to be expanded using an index value and to determine a number of bit positions within a destination mask register into which the first mask bit is to be expanded using a second value, the mask expand logic to responsively copy the first mask bit to each of the determined bit positions within the destination mask register. |
