AESDEC with x64

Hi all,

How to use AESDEC? I am getting an error for the code below. For IA64 it works but I have no IA64 processor.

BITS 64
CPU x64

  1017                                              AESDEC XMM1, XMM2
  1018          ******************       error: no instruction for this cpu level

nasm doc section 7.11

debs3759:
It was introduced with the Westmere architecture. If none of your hardware is x64 capable, it won't be supported.

The problem, above, is the CPU directive...

--- Code: ---$ cat test.asm
  bits 64
  ; cpu x64

  aesdec xmm1,xmm2

$ nasm -v
NASM version 2.15.05 compiled on Oct 24 2020

$ nasm -l test.lst test.asm
$
--- End code ---

--- Code: ---1                      bits  64
2                      ;cpu x64
3                     
4 00000000 660F38DECA  aesdec xmm1,xmm2
--- End code ---

--- Code: ---$ cat test2.asm
  bits 64
  cpu x64

  aesdec xmm1,xmm2

$ nasm -l test2.lst test2.asm
test2.asm:4: error: no instruction for this cpu level
--- End code ---
From the docs:

--- Quote ---The CPU directive restricts assembly to those instructions which are available on the specified CPU
--- End quote ---
Without CPU there are no restrictions.

RomekAtomek:
My mistake was that I made the assumption that IA64 only applies to itanium.


I have another question. Is AESDEC instruction available in 16b mode? NASM accept it.
