Our general policy is that new opcodes are only added to the 64 bit backend. The 32 bit backend is very old and is hard to extend further without a lot of work while the 64 bit backend has been extensively rewritten to better support decoding the large number of new opcodes that have been added. Further information is available at http://valgrind.org/docs/manual/manual-core.html#manual-core.limits but broadly speaking 32 bit support is frozen at SSSE3 level, plus a few SSE4 instructions needed to be able to run 32 bit programs on MacOS. The cpuid we report in 32 bit mode should correctly identify what opcodes we support there. Sorry .. if you want to use instructions after SSSE3, you need to use the 64-bit port. There are no plans to backport any such support to the 32-bit version. |
