Standards, Environments, and Macros isalist(5)
NAME
isalist - the native instruction sets known to Solaris
software
DESCRIPTION
The possible instruction set names returned by isalist(1)
and the SI_ISALIST command of sysinfo(2) are listed here.
The list is ordered within an instruction set family in the
sense that later names are generally faster then earlier
names; note that this is in the reverse order than listed by
isalist(1) and sysinfo(2). In the following list of values,
numbered entries generally represent increasing performance;
lettered entries are either mutually exclusive or cannot be
ordered.
SPARC Platforms
Where appropriate, correspondence with a given value of the
-xarch option of Sun's C 4.0 compiler is indicated. Other
compilers may have similar options.
1a. sparc
Indicates the SPARC V8 instruction set, as defined in
The SPARC Architecture Manual, Version 8, Prentice-Hall,
Inc., 1992. Some instructions (such as integer multiply
and divide, FSMULD, and all floating point operations on
quad operands) may be emulated by the kernel on certain
systems.
1b. sparcv7
Same as sparc. This corresponds to code produced with
the -xarch=v7 option of Sun's C 4.0 compiler.
2. sparcv8-fsmuld
Like sparc, except that integer multiply and divide must
be executed in hardware. This corresponds to code pro-
duced with the -xarch=v8a option of Sun's C 4.0 com-
piler.
3. sparcv8
Like sparcv8-fsmuld, except that FSMULD must also be
executed in hardware. This corresponds to code produced

Standards, Environments, and Macros isalist(5)
with the -xarch=v8 option of Sun's C 4.0 compiler.
4. sparcv8plus
Indicates the SPARC V8 instruction set plus those
instructions in the SPARC V9 instruction set, as defined
in The SPARC Architecture Manual, Version 9, Prentice-
Hall, 1994, that can be used according to The V8+
Technical Specification. This corresponds to code pro-
duced with the -xarch=v8plus option of Sun's C 4.0 com-
piler.
5a. sparcv8plus+vis
Like sparcv8plus, with the addition of those UltraSPARC
I Visualization Instructions that can be used according
to The V8+ Technical Specification. This corresponds to
code produced with the -xarch=v8plusa option of Sun's C
4.0 compiler.
5b. sparcv8plus+fmuladd
Like sparcv8plus, with the addition of the Fujitsu
SPARC64 floating multiply-add and multiply-subtract
instructions.
6. sparcv9
Indicates the SPARC V9 instruction set, as defined in
The SPARC Architecture Manual, Version 9, Prentice-Hall,
1994.
7a. sparcv9+vis
Like sparcv9, with the addition of the UltraSPARC I
Visualization Instructions.
7b. sparcv9+vis2
Like sparcv9, with the addition of the UltraSPARC III
SunOS 5.10 Last change: 6 Jan 2005 2
Standards, Environments, and Macros isalist(5)
Visualization Instructions.
7c. sparcv9+fmuladd
Like sparcv9, with the addition of the Fujitsu SPARC64
floating multiply-add and multiply-subtract instruc-
tions.
x86 Platforms
1. i386
The Intel 80386 instruction set, as described in The
i386 Microprocessor Programmer's Reference Manual.
2. i486
The Intel 80486 instruction set, as described in The
i486 Microprocessor Programmer's Reference Manual. (This
is effectively i386, plus the CMPXCHG, BSWAP, and XADD
instructions.)
3. pentium
The Intel Pentium instruction set, as described in The
Pentium Processor User's Manual. (This is effectively
i486, plus the CPU_ID instruction, and any features that
the CPU_ID instruction indicates are present.)
4. pentium+mmx
Like pentium, with the MMX instructions guaranteed
present.
5. pentium_pro
The Intel PentiumPro instruction set, as described in
The PentiumPro Family Developer's Manual. (This is
effectively pentium, with the CMOVcc, FCMOVcc, FCOMI,
and RDPMC instructions guaranteed present.)
SunOS 5.10 Last change: 6 Jan 2005 3
Standards, Environments, and Macros isalist(5)
6. pentium_pro+mmx
Like pentium_pro, with the MMX instructions guaranteed
present.
7. amd64
The AMD Opteron instruction set, as described in the
AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual.
