Description

Performs a full or partial restore of processor state components from the XSAVE area located at the memory address specified by the source operand. The implicit EDX:EAX register pair specifies a 64-bit instruction mask. The specific state components restored correspond to the bits set in the requested-feature bitmap (RFBM), which is the logical-AND of EDX:EAX and the logical-OR of XCR0 with the IA32_XSS MSR. XRSTORS may be executed only if CPL = 0.

The format of the XSAVE area is detailed in Section 13.4, "XSAVE Area," of Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Soft- ware Developer's Manual, Volume 1. Like FXRSTOR and FXSAVE, the memory format used for x87 state depends

on a REX.W prefix; see Section 13.5.1, "x87 State" of Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual, Volume 1.

Section 13.12, "Operation of XRSTORS," of Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual, Volume 1 provides a detailed description of the operation of the XRSTOR instruction. The following items provide a high-level outline:

XSAVE Area" of Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual, Volume 1).

for which RFBM[i] = 0.

Use of a source operand not aligned to 64-byte boundary (for 64-bit and 32-bit modes) results in a general-protec- tion (#GP) exception. In 64-bit mode, the upper 32 bits of RDX and RAX are ignored.

See Section 13.6, "Processor Tracking of XSAVE-Managed State," of Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual, Volume 1 for discussion of the bitmaps XINUSE and XMODIFIED and of the quantity XRSTOR_INFO.
