Abstract: Detailed herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods for strided loads. In an embodiment, an apparatus includes a decoder to decode an instruction, wherein the instruction to include fields a starting source memory address operand and a starting destination register operand; and execution circuitry to execute the decoded instruction to extract data elements of a defined number of types from contiguous memory beginning at the starting source memory address and, for each type, store the extracted data elements in a packed data register dedicated to that type beginning with starting destination register operand.

Abstract: Embodiments of systems, apparatuses, and method for getting even or odd data elements are described. For example, in some embodiments, an apparatus includes a decoder to decode an instruction, wherein the instruction to include fields for a first source operand, a second source operand, and a destination operand; and execution circuitry to execute the decoded instruction to extract data elements from even data element positions of the first and second source operands and store the extracted data elements into the destination operand.
