Abstract
A system and method for copying and initializing a block of memory. To copy several data entities from a source region of memory to a destination region of memory, an instruction may copy each data entity one at a time. If an aggregate condition is determined to be satisfied, multiple data entities may be copied simultaneously. The aggregate condition may rely on an aggregate data size, the size of the data entities to be copied, and the alignment of the source and destination addresses.
