Single instruction multiple data add processors, methods, systems, and instructions

An apparatus comprising:

• a plurality of registers including at least a source register and a result register;
• an instruction control device to receive a single instruction multiple data add instruction, the single instruction multiple data add instruction to indicate the source register and the result register, wherein the source register is to include a plurality of data that are each to have a data length, wherein the single instruction multiple data add instruction is to have a data length field that is to indicate the data length, wherein the data length field is to have a value of 0 to indicate the data length as 8-bits, wherein the data length field is also able to have a value of 1 to instead indicate the data length as 16-bits or a value of 2 to instead indicate the data length as 32-bits;
• and
• a logic device coupled with the instruction control device, the logic device responsive to reception by the instruction control device of the single instruction multiple data add instruction to store a result in the result register, the result to include a sum that is based on adding at least sixteen 8-bit length data together including based on adding all data from the source register together.

An apparatus comprising:

• a plurality of registers including at least a source register and a result register;
• an instruction control device to receive a single instruction multiple data add instruction, the single instruction multiple data add instruction to indicate the source register and the result register, wherein the source register is to include a plurality of data that are each to have a width, wherein the single instruction multiple data add instruction is to have a parameter that is to indicate the width, wherein the parameter is to have a value of 0 to indicate the data length as 8-bits, the parameter is to have a value of 1 to indicate the data length as 16-bits, and the parameter is to have a value of 2 to indicate the data length as 32-bits;
• and
• a logic device coupled with the instruction control device, the logic device responsive to reception by the instruction control device of the single instruction multiple data add instruction to store a result in the result register, the result to include a sum that is to include the plurality of data in the source register.

An apparatus comprising:

• a plurality of registers including a source register and a result register;
• an instruction control device to receive an instruction, the instruction to indicate the source register and the result register, wherein the source register is to include a plurality of data that are each to have a data length, wherein the instruction is to have a parameter that is to indicate the data length, wherein the parameter is able to have a plurality of different values and is to have a value of 0 to indicate the data length as 8-bits;
• and
• a logic device coupled with the instruction control device, the logic device responsive to the instruction to store a result in the result register, the result to include a sum that is to include a sum of at least sixteen 8-bit length data including a sum of the plurality of data from the source register.
