The instruction conditionally prefetches up to sixteen 32-bit or eight 64-bit integer byte data elements. The elements are specified via the VSIB (i.e., the index register is an zmm, holding packed indices). Elements will only be prefetched if their corresponding mask bit is one.
Lines prefetched are loaded into to a location in the cache hierarchy specified by a locality hint (T1):
[PS data] For dword indices, the instruction will prefetch sixteen memory locations. For qword indices, the instruc-tion will prefetch eight values.
[PD data] For dword and qword indices, the instruction will prefetch eight memory locations.
Note that:
(1) The prefetches may happen in any order (or not at all). The instruction is a hint.
(2) The mask is left unchanged.
(3) Not valid with 16-bit effective addresses. Will deliver a #UD fault.
(4) No FP nor memory faults may be produced by this instruction.
(5) Prefetches do not handle cache line splits
(6) A #UD is signaled if the memory operand is encoded without the SIB byte.
BASE_ADDR stands for the memory operand base address (a GPR); may not exist VINDEX stands for the memory operand vector of indices (a vector register) SCALE stands for the memory operand scalar (1, 2, 4 or 8) DISP is the optional 1, 2 or 4 byte displacement PREFETCH(mem, Level, State) Prefetches a byte memory location pointed by ‘mem’ into the cache level specified by ‘Level’; a request for exclusive/ownership is done if ‘State’ is 1. Note that the memory location ignore cache line splits. This operation is considered a hint for the processor and may be skipped depending on implementation.VGATHERPF1DPS (EVEX encoded version)
