Output
The `VPBROADCASTB` instruction is a vector instruction in the Intel x86-64 architecture, specifically part of the AVX2 and AVX-512 instruction sets. It is used to broadcast a single byte value across all elements of a destination vector register.
### Syntax
| VPBROADCASTB xmm1, xmm2/m8
VPBROADCASTB ymm1, xmm2/m8
VPBROADCASTB zmm1, xmm2/m8
|
### Description
- **xmm1, xmm2/m8**: Broadcasts the byte in the source operand to all byte elements in the destination XMM register.
- **ymm1, xmm2/m8**: Broadcasts the byte in the source operand to all byte elements in the destination YMM register.
- **zmm1, xmm2/m8**: Broadcasts the byte in the source operand to all byte elements in the destination ZMM register.
### Operation
The `VPBROADCASTB` instruction operates as follows:
1. It reads a single byte from the source operand, which could be an 8-bit memory location or the lower byte of an XMM register.
2. It replicates (broadcasts) this byte value across all byte elements of the destination XMM, YMM, or ZMM register.
### Example
Here is an example of how `VPBROADCASTB` might be used in assembly language:
| ; Assume we have a byte value in memory at address [rsi]
VPBROADCASTB xmm1, [rsi] ; Broadcasts the byte at [rsi] to all bytes in xmm1
VPBROADCASTB ymm2, [rsi] ; Broadcasts the byte at [rsi] to all bytes in ymm2
VPBROADCASTB zmm3, [rsi] ; Broadcasts the byte at [rsi] to all bytes in zmm3
|
### Use Cases
`VPBROADCASTB` is useful in scenarios where you need to initialize or set all elements of a vector register to the same byte value. This can be common in various data processing tasks, such as initializing arrays, setting mask values, or preparing data for SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) operations.
### Performance Considerations
Using broadcast instructions like `VPBROADCASTB` can improve performance by reducing the need for multiple instructions to initialize each element of a vector register separately. It leverages the parallel processing capabilities of modern CPUs, especially when working with large datasets and vectorized operations.

What does the VPBROADCASTB instruction do?
Output
The `VPBROADCASTB` instruction is an x86 assembly language instruction that belongs to the AVX-512 (Advanced Vector Extensions 512) family. It is used to broadcast a single byte value across all bytes in the destination vector register.
Here's a brief description of how `VPBROADCASTB` works:
- **Source Operand**: The instruction takes a single byte from the source operand, which can be a general-purpose register, memory location, or an immediate value.
- **Destination Operand**: The destination operand is a SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) register (such as an XMM, YMM, or ZMM register depending on the specific variant of the instruction).
### Operation
The `VPBROADCASTB` instruction copies the byte from the source operand to every byte position in the destination vector register, effectively broadcasting the byte across the entire register.
### Syntax
| VPBROADCASTB xmm1, reg/mem8
VPBROADCASTB ymm1, reg/mem8
VPBROADCASTB zmm1, reg/mem8
|
- `xmm1`, `ymm1`, `zmm1`: Destination registers of different sizes (128-bit, 256-bit, and 512-bit respectively).
- `reg/mem8`: The source operand, which can be an 8-bit register or an 8-bit memory location.
### Example
Assume `al` contains the value `0x12` and you want to broadcast this value across all bytes of a 256-bit YMM register:
After executing this instruction, `ymm1` will contain:
| [ 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12,
0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12,
0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12,
0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12 ]
|
Each byte in the `ymm1` register is set to `0x12`.
### Use Cases
The `VPBROADCASTB` instruction is particularly useful in scenarios where you need to initialize or set all the bytes in a vector register to the same value, which can be common in various vectorized operations and algorithms.
### Summary

What does the VPBROADCASTB instruction do?
Output
The `VPBROADCASTB` instruction is an AVX-512 (Advanced Vector Extensions 512) instruction used in x86-64 architecture. It broadcasts a single byte value to all elements of a destination vector. This means that the specified byte value is replicated across all bytes in the destination vector register.
Here's a breakdown of how `VPBROADCASTB` works:
- **Source**: The instruction takes a byte from a specified source operand. The source can be a general-purpose register, a memory location, or another vector register.
- **Destination**: The instruction writes the replicated byte value to a destination vector register.
For instance, if you have a byte value `0xAB` and you use `VPBROADCASTB`, this value will be copied into every byte position of the destination vector register.
### Example
Assume you have the following scenario:
- Source byte value (in a register or memory): `0xAB`
- Destination vector register: `zmm1`
Using `VPBROADCASTB`, the destination `zmm1` will be filled as follows:
| zmm1 = [0xAB, 0xAB, 0xAB, 0xAB, 0xAB, 0xAB, 0xAB, 0xAB, ... 64 bytes total ...]
|
### Syntax
The syntax for `VPBROADCASTB` can vary depending on the assembler, but a common form looks like this:
| VPBROADCASTB destination, source
|
Where:
- `destination` is the vector register that will receive the broadcasted byte.
- `source` is the byte to be broadcasted, which can be a byte from a general-purpose register, a memory location, or another vector register.
### Example in Assembly
| VPBROADCASTB zmm1, rax ; Broadcast the byte in the lower 8 bits of RAX to all bytes in ZMM1
VPBROADCASTB zmm2, [rbx] ; Broadcast the byte at the memory location pointed to by RBX to all bytes in ZMM2
|
### Use Cases
`VPBROADCASTB` is useful in scenarios where you need to initialize a vector register with the same byte value across all its elements, such as:
- Setting up a mask for comparison operations.
- Initializing data structures.
- Performing certain SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) operations where each element needs to be the same.
By using this instruction, you can efficiently broadcast a single byte across an entire vector, leveraging the wide registers of AVX-512 for high-performance computing tasks.
