Description

STUI sets the user interrupt flag (UIF). Its effect takes place immediately; a user interrupt may be delivered on the instruction boundary following STUI. (This is in contrast with STI, whose effect is delayed by one instruction).

An execution of STUI inside a transactional region causes a transactional abort; the abort loads EAX as it would have had it been due to an execution of STI.

Operation

UIF := 1;

Flags Affected

None.

Protected Mode Exceptions

Compatibility Mode Exceptions

#UD	The STUI instruction is not recognized in compatibility mode.

64-Bit Mode Exceptions

#UD	If the LOCK prefix is used. If executed inside an enclave. If CR4.UINTR = 0. If CPUID.07H.0H:EDX.UINTR[bit 5] = 0.
