Feature
Description
11SEPFast System CallIndicates whether the processor supports the Fast System Call
instructions, SYSENTER and SYSEXIT.
12MTRRMemory Type
Range Registers
Processor supports machine-specific memory-type range registers
(MTRRs). The MTRRs contains bit fields that indicate the processors
MTRR capabilities, including which memory types the processor
supports, the number of variable MTRRs the processor supports, and
whether the processor supports fixed MTRRs.
13PGEPTE Global FlagProcessor supports the CR4.PGE flag enabling the global bit in both
PTDEs and PTEs. These bits are used to indicate translation lookaside
buffer (TLB) entries that are common to different tasks and need not be
flushed when control register CR3 is written.
14MCAMachine Check
Architecture
Processor supports the MCG_CAP (machine check global capability)
MSR. The MCG_CAP register indicates how many banks of error
reporting MSRs the processor supports.
15CMOVConditional
Move and Compare
Instructions
Processor supports the CMOVcc instruction and, if the FPU feature flag
(bit 0) is also set, supports the FCMOVcc and FCOMI instructions.
16FGPATPage Attribute
Table
Processor supports CMOVcc, and if the FPU feature flag (bit 0) is also
set, supports the FMOVCC and FCOMI instructions.
17PSE-3636-bit Page
Size Extension
Processor supports 4MB pages with 36 bit physical addresses.
18PNProcessor
Number
Processor supports the 96-bit Processor Number feature, and the
feature is enabled
19-22Reserved
23MMX TechnologyProcessor supports the MMX instruction set. These instructions
operate in parallel on multiple data elements (8 bytes, 4 words, or 2
doublewords) packed into quadword registers or memory locations.
24FXSRFast
FP/MMX
Technology/Streaming
SIMD Extensions
save/restore
Indicates whether the processor supports the FXSAVE and FXRSTOR
instructions for fast save and restore of the floating point context.
Presence of this bit also indicates that CR4.OSFXSR is available for an
operating system to indicate that it uses the fast save/restore
instructions.
25XMMStreaming
SIMD Extensions
Processor supports the Streaming SIMD Extensions instruction set.
