Its an advanced form of 64 bit processing where the registers are carried over to 3 calls. The first call with EAX = 80000002h, returns 16 byte string in EAX:EBX:ECX:EDX. Similiarly, with EAX = 80000003h and EAX = 80000004h, the remaining 16 + 16 bytes are retrieved. Thats too advanced to handle if your core business is hardware.
If the processor implements an address space number (ASN) register, the process translation buffer (TB) state associated with the new value of the ASN (that is, the one loaded by the LDPCTX instruction) is flushed if the process last ran on a different processor. This is indicated by the previous CPU (PRVCPU) field being not equal to the CPU identification (CPUID) register. If the processor does not implement the ASN register, the process-space TB state is unconditionally flushed.
In other words: better let someone else take care of the software!!!
No.. i made a typo: it was computing!
