CLUI
Clears the User-Level Interrupts (ULI) state. This instruction resets the internal state associated with user-level interrupt handling, effectively disabling the ability for the processor to receive user-level interrupts.
The table after the description covers what the source and destinations can be.
| source | destination(s) |
|---|---|
| #I | #I |
DO NOT support LOCK
This instruction is only available when the processor is operating in 64-bit mode. It is NOT supported in compatibility mode.
Failure to execute CLUI before transitioning to a lower privilege level or changing interrupt configurations may result in unexpected delivery of pending user-level interrupts. Ensure that the processor state is synchronized with the intended interrupt masking policy to avoid race conditions in interrupt handling.
