_mm_monitor

SSE3

Header file <intrin.h>

The monitor instruction sets up an address range for hardware monitoring. The values of a and b correspond to the values in ECX and EDX used by the monitor instruction. They are reserved for future use and should be zero for the SSE3-enabled processor. For more information, see the Intel or AMD documentation as appropriate.

Note Note

Some chips support the SSE3 intrinsics but do not support _mm_mwait and _mm_monitor.You should use __cpuid, __cpuidex to determine whether this intrinsic is available.

This routine is available only as an intrinsic.
