Instructions and logic provide extended vector suffix comparisons for Boyer-Moore searches. Some embodiments, responsive to an instruction specifying: a pattern source operand and a target source operand, compare each of m data elements of the pattern operand with each data element of the target operand. A first and second equal ordered aggregation operation are performed from the comparisons according to the m data elements of the pattern source operand. A result of the first and second aggregation operations indicating whether or not a possible match exists between the m data elements of the pattern source operand and d data element positions relative to data elements of the target source operand is stored. Ordering of the data elements of the pattern and the target operands may be reversed for the second aggregation operation, and d may be a sum of m−1 and the quantity of target operand elements in some embodiments. |
