Data Transfer Instructions (SSE)

The SSE data transfer instructions move packed and scalar single-precision floating-point operands between XMM registers and between XMM registers and memory.

Solaris Mnemonic	Intel/AMD Mnemonic	Description
`movaps`	`MOVAPS`	move four aligned packed single-precision floating-point values between XMM registers or memory
`movhlps`	`MOVHLPS`	move two packed single-precision floating-point values from the high quadword of an XMM register to the low quadword of another XMM register
`movhps`	`MOVHPS`	move two packed single-precision floating-point values to or from the high quadword of an XMM register or memory
`movlhps`	`MOVLHPS`	move two packed single-precision floating-point values from the low quadword of an XMM register to the high quadword of another XMM register
`movlps`	`MOVLPS`	move two packed single-precision floating-point values to or from the low quadword of an XMM register or memory
`movmskps`	`MOVMSKPS`	extract sign mask from four packed single-precision floating-point values
`movss`	`MOVSS`	move scalar single-precision floating-point value between XMM registers or memory
`movups`	`MOVUPS`	move four unaligned packed single-precision floating-point values between XMM registers or memory
