MOVHPS—Move High Packed Single-Precision Floating-Point Values
MOVHPS—Move High Packed Single-Precision Floating-Point Values
Description
Moves two packed single-precision floating-point values from the source operand
(second operand) to the destination operand (first operand). The source and destina-
tion operands can be an XMM register or a 64-bit memory location. This instruction
allows two single-precision floating-point values to be moved to and from the high
quadword of an XMM register and memory. It cannot be used for register to register
or memory to memory moves. When the destination operand is an XMM register, the
low quadword of the register remains unchanged.
In 64-bit mode, use of the REX.R prefix permits this instruction to access additional
registers (XMM8-XMM15).

Operation
MOVHPS instruction for memory to XMM move:
DEST[127:64] ← SRC;
(* DEST[63:0] unchanged *)
MOVHPS instruction for XMM to memory move:
DEST ← SRC[127:64];
