#510 MOVHPS rejects QWORD size parameter

[Jan Kratochvil]

movq QWORD [rsi], xmm0
movhps QWORD [rdi], xmm0
compiles both with:
yasm -f elf64
as -msyntax=intel -mnaked-reg
as
0: 66 0f d6 06 movq QWORD PTR [rsi],xmm0
4: 0f 17 07 movhps QWORD PTR [rdi],xmm0

but nasm complains:
1.asm:2: error: mismatch in operand sizes

removing QWORD works even with nasm but that should not be required:
movq QWORD [rsi], xmm0
movhps [rdi], xmm0

We seem, in fact, to have this problem with all the Katmai instructions.

[H. Peter Anvin]

The problem being that the Katmai instructions are annotated neither with Sx flags nor with explicit memory sizes.

[Cyrill Gorcunov]

yup, noticed it too, for these particular instructions mem64 is preferred. I hope to handle them in a couple of days, though I'm free to be beaten on that ;)

There is a similar issue with some Willammette instructions, like MOVSD, f.i.

movsd xmm0, [eax]

is accepted, but

movsd xmm0, qword [eax]

isn't

[Cyrill Gorcunov]

ok, I've just covered katmai instructions I guess and pushed upstream, so it either will be in 2.09.05 or later after the patch has been more tested/reviewed
