NOTES:
*
In 64-bit mode, r/m8 can not be encoded to access the following byte registers if a REX prefix is used: AH, BH, CH, DH.
| Op/En | Operand 1 | Operand 2 | Operand 3 | Operand 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | AL/AX/EAX/RAX | imm8/16/32 | N/A | N/A |
| MI | ModRM:r/m (r, w) | imm8/16/32 | N/A | N/A |
| MR | ModRM:r/m (r, w) | ModRM:reg (r) | N/A | N/A |
| RM | ModRM:reg (r, w) | ModRM:r/m (r) | N/A | N/A |
Performs a bitwise exclusive OR (XOR) operation on the destination (first) and source (second) operands and stores the result in the destination operand location. The source operand can be an immediate, a register, or a memory location; the destination operand can be a register or a memory location. (However, two memory oper-ands cannot be used in one instruction.) Each bit of the result is 1 if the corresponding bits of the operands are different; each bit is 0 if the corresponding bits are the same.
This instruction can be used with a LOCK prefix to allow the instruction to be executed atomically.
In 64-bit mode, using a REX prefix in the form of REX.R permits access to additional registers (R8-R15). Using a REX prefix in the form of REX.W promotes operation to 64 bits. See the summary chart at the beginning of this section for encoding data and limits.
DEST := DEST XOR SRC;
The OF and CF flags are cleared; the SF, ZF, and PF flags are set according to the result. The state of the AF flag is undefined.
| #GP(0) |
If the destination operand points to a non-writable segment. 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 but the destination is not a memory operand. |
| #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 but the destination is not a memory operand. |
| #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. |
| #AC(0) | If alignment checking is enabled and an unaligned memory reference is made. |
| #UD | If the LOCK prefix is used but the destination is not a memory operand. |
Same exceptions as in protected mode.
| #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 but the destination is not a memory operand. |
