Abstract
A processor includes an instruction decoder to receive an instruction having a first operand, a second operand, and a third operand, and an execution unit coupled to the instruction decoder to execute the instruction, the execution unit to individually perform a shift operation by at least one bit for each of a plurality of data elements stored in a storage location indicated by the second operand, for each of the data elements that has an overflow in response to the shift-left operation, to carry over the overflow into an adjacent data element based on a first bitmask obtained from the third operand, generating a final result, and to store the final result in a storage location indicated by the first operand.
