Opcode/Instruction Op/En 64/32-bit Mode CPUID Feature Flag Description

VEX.NDS.256.66.0F3A.W0 18 /r ib

VINSERTF128 ymm1, ymm2, xmm3/m128, imm8

 RVM V/V AVX Insert a single precision floating-point value selected by imm8 from xmm3/m128 into ymm2 at the specified destination element specified by imm8 and zero out destination elements in ymm1 as indicated in imm8.

Description

Performs an insertion of 128-bits of packed floating-point values from the second source operand (third operand) into an the destination operand (first operand) at an 128-bit offset from imm8[0]. The remaining portions of the destination are written by the corresponding fields of the first source operand (second operand). The second source operand can be either an XMM register or a 128-bit memory location.

The high 7 bits of the immediate are ignored.
