Description

(register source form)

Select a single-precision floating-point element from second source as indicated by Count_S bits of the immediate operand and destination operand it into the first source at the location indicated by the Count_D bits of the imme-diate operand. Store in the destination and zero out destination elements based on the ZMask bits of the imme-diate operand.

(memory source form)

Load a floating-point element from a 32-bit memory location and destination operand it into the first source at the location indicated by the Count_D bits of the immediate operand. Store in the destination and zero out destination elements based on the ZMask bits of the immediate operand.

128-bit Legacy SSE version: The first source register is an XMM register. The second source operand is either an XMM register or a 32-bit memory location. The destination is not distinct from the first source XMM register and the upper bits (MAX_VL-1:128) of the corresponding register destination are unmodified.

VEX.128 and EVEX encoded version: The destination and first source register is an XMM register. The second source operand is either an XMM register or a 32-bit memory location. The upper bits (MAX_VL-1:128) of the corresponding register destination are zeroed.

If VINSERTPS is encoded with VEX.L= 1, an attempt to execute the instruction encoded with VEX.L= 1 will cause an #UD exception.
