MOVSX / MOVSXD — Move with Sign-Extension

Opcode Instruction Op/ En 64-Bit Mode Compat/ Leg Mode Description
0F BE /r MOVSX r16, r/m8 RM Valid Valid Move byte to word with sign-extension.
0F BE /r MOVSX r32, r/m8 RM Valid Valid Move byte to doubleword with sign- extension.
REX.W + 0F BE /r MOVSX r64, r/m8 RM Valid N.E. Move byte to quadword with sign-extension.
0F BF /r MOVSX r32, r/m16 RM Valid Valid Move word to doubleword, with sign- extension.
REX.W + 0F BF /r MOVSX r64, r/m16 RM Valid N.E. Move word to quadword with sign-extension.
63 /r* MOVSXD r16, r/m16 RM Valid Valid Move word to word with sign-extension.
63 /r* MOVSXD r32, r/m32 RM Valid Valid Move doubleword to doubleword with sign- extension.
REX.W + 63 /r MOVSXD r64, r/m32 RM Valid N.E. Move doubleword to quadword with sign- extension.

* The use of MOVSXD without REX.W in 64-bit mode is discouraged. Regular MOV should be used instead of using MOVSXD without REX.W.

Description

Copies the contents of the source operand (register or memory location) to the destination operand (register) and sign extends the value to 16 or 32 bits (see Figure 7-6 in the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Devel- oper’s Manual, Volume 1). The size of the converted value depends on the operand-size attribute.

In 64-bit mode, the instruction’s default operation size is 32 bits. Use of the REX.R prefix permits access to additional registers (R8-R15). Use of the REX.W prefix promotes operation to 64 bits. See the summary chart at the beginning of this section for encoding data and limits.

Operation

DEST ← SignExtend(SRC);

Flags Affected

None.

Protected Mode Exceptions

#GP(0) If a memory operand effective address is outside the CS, DS, ES, FS, or GS segment limit. If the DS, ES, FS, or GS register contains a NULL segment selector.

#SS(0) If a memory operand effective address is outside the SS segment limit.

#PF(fault-code) If a page fault occurs.

#AC(0) If alignment checking is enabled and an unaligned memory reference is made while the current privilege level is 3.

#UD If the LOCK prefix is used.

Real-Address Mode Exceptions

#GP If a memory operand effective address is outside the CS, DS, ES, FS, or GS segment limit.

#SS If a memory operand effective address is outside the SS segment limit.

#UD If the LOCK prefix is used.

Virtual-8086 Mode Exceptions

#GP(0) If a memory operand effective address is outside the CS, DS, ES, FS, or GS segment limit.

#SS(0) If a memory operand effective address is outside the SS segment limit.

#PF(fault-code) If a page fault occurs.

#UD If the LOCK prefix is used.

Compatibility Mode Exceptions

Same exceptions as in protected mode.

64-Bit Mode Exceptions

#SS(0) If a memory address referencing the SS segment is in a non-canonical form.

#GP(0) If the memory address is in a non-canonical form.

#PF(fault-code) If a page fault occurs.

#AC(0) If alignment checking is enabled and an unaligned memory reference is made while the current privilege level is 3.

#UD If the LOCK prefix is used.
