OR Masks and Set Flags Byte

KORTESTB k1, k2

ORs 8-bit masks and sets EFLAGS (ZF/CF).

Details

ORs two 8-bit AVX-512 opmask registers and sets EFLAGS based on the result without storing the OR result. Sets ZF if the OR result is all zeros, and CF if the first source opmask is all zeros. Part of the AVX-512DQ extension, this instruction is useful for testing mask conditions.

Pseudocode Operation

temp ← k1 | k2; ZF ← (temp == 0); CF ← (k1 == 0);

Description

Performs a bitwise OR between the vector mask register k2, and the vector mask register k1, and sets CF and ZF based on the operation result. ZF flag is set if both sources are 0x0. CF is set if, after the OR operation is done, the operation result is all 1’s.

Flags Affected

The ZF flag is set if the result of OR-ing both sources is all 0s. The CF flag is set if the result of OR-ing both sources is all 1s. The OF, SF, AF, and PF flags are set to 0.
