Unpack Low Packed Single-Precision
UNPCKLPS xmm1, xmm2/m128
Interleaves low floats from two registers.
Details
Interleaves the low 64 bits (two 32-bit floats) from the destination XMM register with the low 64 bits from the source, producing [src[31:0], dest[31:0], src[63:32], dest[63:32]] in the destination. This SIMD instruction has no effect on CPU flags and operates only on the XMM register file. It is part of the SSE extension and works identically across all modern 64-bit modes.
Pseudocode Operation
xmm1[31:0] ← xmm1[31:0];
xmm1[63:32] ← src[31:0];
xmm1[95:64] ← xmm1[63:32];
xmm1[127:96] ← src[63:32];

Description
Performs an interleaved unpack of the low single precision floating-point values from the first source operand and the second source operand.
128-bit Legacy SSE version: The second source can be an XMM register or an 128-bit memory location. The destination is not distinct from the first source XMM register and the upper bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding
ZMM register destination are unmodified. When unpacking from a memory operand, an implementation may fetch only the appropriate 64 bits; however, alignment to 16-byte boundary and normal segment checking will still be enforced.
VEX.128 encoded version: The first source operand is a XMM register. The second source operand can be a XMM register or a 128-bit memory location. The destination operand is a XMM register. The upper bits (MAXVL-1:128) of the corresponding ZMM register destination are zeroed.
VEX.256 encoded version: The first source operand is a YMM register. The second source operand can be a YMM register or a 256-bit memory location. The destination operand is a YMM register.

EVEX.512 encoded version: The first source operand is a ZMM register. The second source operand is a ZMM register, a 512-bit memory location, or a 512-bit vector broadcasted from a 32-bit memory location. The destination operand is a ZMM register, conditionally updated using writemask k1.
EVEX.256 encoded version: The first source operand is a YMM register. The second source operand is a YMM register, a 256-bit memory location, or a 256-bit vector broadcasted from a 32-bit memory location. The destination operand is a YMM register, conditionally updated using writemask k1.
EVEX.128 encoded version: The first source operand is an XMM register. The second source operand is a XMM register, a 128-bit memory location, or a 128-bit vector broadcasted from a 32-bit memory location. The destination operand is a XMM register, conditionally updated using writemask k1.

CHAPTER 5
5.1 TERNARY BIT VECTOR LOGIC TABLE
VPTERNLOGD/VPTERNLOGQ instructions operate on dword/qword elements and take three bit vectors of the
respective input data elements to form a set of 32/64 indices, where each 3-bit value provides an index into an 8-
bit lookup table represented by the imm8 byte of the instruction. The 256 possible values of the imm8 byte is
constructed as a 16x16 boolean logic table. The 16 rows of the table uses the lower 4 bits of imm8 as row index.
The 16 columns are referenced by imm8[7:4]. The 16 columns of the table are present in two halves, with 8
columns shown in Table 5-1 for the column index value between 0:7, followed by Table 5-2 showing the 8 columns
corresponding to column index 8:15. This section presents the two-halves of the 256-entry table using a short-
hand notation representing simple or compound boolean logic expressions with three input bit source data.
The three input bit source data will be denoted with the capital letters: A, B, C; where A represents a bit from the
first source operand (also the destination operand), B and C represent a bit from the 2nd and 3rd source operands.
Each map entry takes the form of a logic expression consisting of one of more component expressions. Each
component expression consists of either a unary or binary boolean operator and associated operands. Each binary
boolean operator is expressed in lowercase letters, and operands concatenated after the logic operator. The unary
operator ‘not’ is expressed using ‘!’. Additionally, the conditional expression “A?B:C” expresses a result returning B
if A is set, returning C otherwise.
A binary boolean operator is followed by two operands, e.g., andAB. For a compound binary expression that contain
commutative components and comprising the same logic operator, the 2nd logic operator is omitted and three
operands can be concatenated in sequence, e.g., andABC. When the 2nd operand of the first binary boolean
expression comes from the result of another boolean expression, the 2nd boolean expression is concatenated after
the uppercase operand of the first logic expression, e.g., norBnandAC. When the result is independent of an
operand, that operand is omitted in the logic expression, e.g., zeros or norCB.
The 3-input expression “majorABC” returns 0 if two or more input bits are 0, returns 1 if two or more input bits are
1. The 3-input expression “minorABC” returns 1 if two or more input bits are 0, returns 0 if two or more input bits
are 1.
The building-block bit logic functions used in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 include:
• Constants: TRUE (1), FALSE (0);
• Unary function: Not (!);
• Binary functions: and, nand, or, nor, xor, xnor;
• Conditional function: Select (?:);
• Tertiary functions: major, minor.

Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 translate each of the possible value of the imm8 byte to a Boolean expression. These tables
can also be used by software to translate Boolean expressions to numerical constants to form the imm8 value
needed to construct the VPTERNLOG syntax. There is a unique set of three byte constants (F0H, CCH, AAH) that
can be used for this purpose as input operands in conjunction with the Boolean expressions defined in those tables.
The reverse mapping can be expressed as:
Result_imm8 = Table_Lookup_Entry(0F0H, 0CCH, 0AAH)
Table_Lookup_Entry is the Boolean expression defined in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2.
