3-294 Vol. 2A FBLD—Load Binary Coded Decimal
INSTRUCTION SET REFERENCE, A-M
FBLD—Load Binary Coded Decimal
Description
Converts the BCD source operand into double extended-precision floating-point
format and pushes the value onto the FPU stack. The source operand is loaded
without rounding errors. The sign of the source operand is preserved, including that
of 0.
The packed BCD digits are assumed to be in the range 0 through 9; the instruction
does not check for invalid digits (AH through FH). Attempting to load an invalid
encoding produces an undefined result.
This instruction’s operation is the same in non-64-bit modes and 64-bit mode.
Operation
TOP TOP 1;
ST(0) ConvertToDoubleExtendedPrecisionFP(SRC);
FPU Flags Affected
C1 Set to 1 if stack overflow occurred; otherwise, set to 0.
C0, C2, C3 Undefined.
Floating-Point Exceptions
#IS Stack overflow occurred.
Protected Mode Exceptions
#GP(0) If a memory operand effective address is outside the CS, DS,
ES, FS, or GS segment limit.
If the DS, ES, FS, or GS register contains a NULL segment
selector.
#SS(0) If a memory operand effective address is outside the SS
segment limit.
#NM CR0.EM[bit 2] or CR0.TS[bit 3] = 1.
#PF(fault-code) If a page fault occurs.
#AC(0) If alignment checking is enabled and an unaligned memory
reference is made while the current privilege level is 3.
#UD If the LOCK prefix is used.
