| Opcode Instruction Description 66 0F 38 81 INVVPID r64, m128 Invalidates entries in the TLBs and paging-structure caches based on VPID (in 64-bit mode) 66 0F 38 81 INVVPID r32, m128 Invalidates entries in the TLBs and paging-structure caches based on VPID (outside 64-bit mode) |
Invalidates mappings in the translation lookaside buffers (TLBs) and paging-structure caches based on virtualprocessor identifier (VPID). (See Chapter 28, “VMX Support for Address Translation”.) Invalidation is based on the INVVPID type specified in the register operand and the INVVPID descriptor specified in the memory operand.
Outside IA-32e mode, the register operand is always 32 bits, regardless of the value of CS.D; in 64-bit mode, the register operand has 64 bits (the instruction cannot be executed in compatibility mode).
The INVVPID types supported by a logical processors are reported in the IA32_VMX_EPT_VPID_CAP MSR (see Appendix A, “VMX Capability Reporting Facility”). There are four INVVPID types currently defined:
If an unsupported INVVPID type is specified, the instruction fails.
INVVPID invalidates all the specified mappings for the indicated VPID(s) regardless of the EPTP and PCID values with which those mappings may be associated.
The INVVPID descriptor comprises 128 bits and consists of a VPID and a linear address as shown in Figure 30-2.
