Advanced Vector Extensions 2 (AVX2), also known as Haswell New Instructions, [24] is an expansion of the AVX instruction set introduced in Intel's Haswell microarchitecture. AVX2 makes the following additions: expansion of most vector integer SSE and AVX instructions to 256 bits
AVX-512 are 512-bit extensions to the 256-bit Advanced Vector Extensions SIMD instructions for x86 instruction set architecture (ISA) proposed by Intel in July 2013, and first implemented in the 2016 Intel Xeon Phi x200 (Knights Landing), [1] and then later in a number of AMD and other Intel CPUs (see list below).
The AVX instruction set is the first instruction set extension to use the VEX coding scheme. The AVX instruction set uses VEX prefix only for instructions using the SIMD XMM registers. However, the VEX coding scheme has been used for other instruction types as well in subsequent expansions of the instruction set. For example:
Added important powerful new instructions, SSE4.2. Westmere: 32 nm shrink of the Nehalem microarchitecture with several new features. Sandy Bridge 32 nm microarchitecture, released January 9, 2011. Formerly called Gesher but renamed in 2007. [2] First x86 to introduce 256 bit AVX instruction set and implementation of YMM registers.
Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX), Gesher New Instructions (GNI), is an advanced version of SSE announced by Intel featuring a widened data path from 128 bits to 256 bits and 3-operand instructions (up from 2). Intel released processors in early 2011 with AVX support. [7] AVX2 is an expansion of the AVX instruction set.
Advanced Vector Extensions, an instruction set extension in the x86 microprocessor architecture AVX2 , an expansion of the AVX instruction set AVX-512 , 512-bit extensions to the 256-bit AVX
The AVX512PF instructions are a set of 16 prefetch instructions. These instructions all use VSIB encoding, where a memory addressing mode using the SIB byte is required, and where the index part of the SIB byte is taken to index into the AVX512 vector register file rather than the GPR register file.
The EVEX scheme is a 4-byte extension to the VEX scheme which supports the AVX-512 instruction set and allows addressing new 512-bit ZMM registers and new 64-bit operand mask registers. With Advanced Performance Extensions , the Extended EVEX prefix redefines the semantics of several payload bits.
