|
The MMX instruction set is available. |
|
Data execution prevention is enabled. Windows XP/2000: This feature is not supported until Windows XP with SP2 and Windows Server 2003 with SP1. |
|
The processor is PAE-enabled. For more information, see
Physical Address Extension.
All x64 processors always return a nonzero value for this feature. |
|
The RDTSC instruction is available. |
|
RDFSBASE, RDGSBASE, WRFSBASE, and WRGSBASE instructions are available. |
|
Second Level Address Translation is supported by the hardware. |
|
The SSE3 instruction set is available.
Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP/2000: This feature is not supported. |
|
The SSSE3 instruction set is available. |
|

|
This Arm processor implements the Arm v8 instructions set. |
|
This Arm processor implements the Arm v8 extra cryptographic instructions (for example, AES, SHA1 and SHA2). |
|
This Arm processor implements the Arm v8 extra CRC32 instructions. |
|
This Arm processor implements the Arm v8.1 atomic instructions (for example, CAS, SWP). |
|
This Arm processor implements the Arm v8.2 DP instructions (for example, SDOT, UDOT). This feature is optional in Arm v8.2 implementations and mandatory in Arm v8.4 implementations. |
|
This Arm processor implements the Arm v8.3 JSCVT instructions (for example, FJCVTZS). |
|
This Arm processor implements the Arm v8.3 LRCPC instructions (for example, LDAPR). Note that certain Arm v8.2 CPUs may optionally support the LRCPC instructions. |
If the feature is supported, the return value is a nonzero value.
If the feature is not supported, the return value is zero.
If the HAL does not support detection of the feature, whether or not the hardware supports the feature, the return value is also zero.
