Intrinsics

There are no details about intrinsics in this Developer Guide and Reference. For detailed information about available intrinsics, see the interactive Intel® Intrinsics Guide at https://software.intel.com/sites/landingpage/IntrinsicsGuide/.

The following is some general information:

Note

When developing and debugging your program with the Intel® C++ Compiler Classic, compile your sources with ‑D__INTEL_COMPILER_USE_INTRINSIC_PROTOTYPES to take advantage of improved compile-time checking of the intrinsics functions. When done be sure to remove this option as it significantly increases compile time.

Availability of Intrinsics on Intel Processors

Not all Intel® processors support all intrinsics. For information on which intrinsics are supported on Intel® processors, visit the Product Specification, Processors page. The Processor Spec Finder tool links directly to all processor documentation and the data sheets list the features, including intrinsics, supported by each processor.
