x87 is a floating-point-related subset of the x86 architecture instruction set. It originated as an extension of the 8086 instruction set in the form...

instructions provided by x87 obey PC and RC. x87 coprocessors (other than the 8087) handle exceptions in a fairly unusual way. When an x87 instruction generates...

Put simply, if the X87 state was enabled in XCR0 and PT state was enabled in IA32_XSS, the XSAVE instruction would only store X87 state, while the privileged...

The available speed version were 4.77 (5), 8, and 10 MHz. There were later x87 coprocessors for the 80186, 80286, 80386, and 80386SX processors. Starting...

Floating-point arithmetic is supported via mandatory SSE2-like instructions, and x87/MMX style registers are generally not used (but still available even in 64-bit...
