<p><code>as</code> supports Intel&rsquo;s MMX instruction set (SIMD
instructions for integer data), available on Intel&rsquo;s Pentium MMX
processors and Pentium II processors, AMD&rsquo;s K6 and K6-2 processors,
Cyrix&rsquo; M2 processor, and probably others. It also supports AMD&rsquo;s 3DNow!
instruction set (SIMD instructions for 32-bit floating point data)
available on AMD&rsquo;s K6-2 processor and possibly others in the future.
</p>
<p>Currently, <code>as</code> does not support Intel&rsquo;s floating point
SIMD, Katmai (KNI).
</p>
<p>The eight 64-bit MMX operands, also used by 3DNow!, are called &lsquo;<samp>%mm0</samp>&rsquo;,
&lsquo;<samp>%mm1</samp>&rsquo;, ... &lsquo;<samp>%mm7</samp>&rsquo;. They contain eight 8-bit integers, four
16-bit integers, two 32-bit integers, one 64-bit integer, or two 32-bit
floating point values. The MMX registers cannot be used at the same time
as the floating point stack.
</p>
<p>See Intel and AMD documentation, keeping in mind that the operand order in
instructions is reversed from the Intel syntax.
