Those will continue using the same instructions as before and just change the calling conventions, right?Yes. I thought this would be clear from the following: - They are based on primitives using 64-bit sized values anyway.Right, that was my reading of it as well, but it's not entirely clear when the function name is the same as the mnemonic of an instruction that only exists on newer CPUs and the later patch
There is no RDMSRQ instruction on any x86 CPU. Are you mixing this up with WRMSRNS/RDMSR using an immediate for addressing the MSR? Juergen
