64 bits

I have been getting questions about 64-bit technologies and specifically about how applications will run on the different Windows editions. I would recommend taking a look at the web site that explains the difference between the Itanium versions and the Extended x64 versions. Find it here: |
Eu tenho recebido muitas perguntas sobre tecnologias de 64 bits e mais especificamente sobre como os programas rodarão nas várias versões do Windows. Eu recomendaria olhar no site que explica as diferenças entre a versão para o processador Itanium e as versões estendidas x64. Veja aqui: |
Here are some interesting details about 64-bit technologies:
I would also like to share with you some of the ways x64 is already being used at Microsoft, so you can see how this is a truly tested technology:
Over the next several months, the x64 platform will continue to evolve. We expect more than 400 supporting applications to become available over the next year, and we look forward to introducing x64 support in SQL Server 2005, Visual Studio 2005, and the .NET Framework 2.0. |

Subject: FPU and MMX in x64?
I have read somewhere in MSDN (perhaps it was in DDK part) that Windows x64 will not preserve state of FPU and MMX registers across context switch and that the code written to take advantage of FPU and MMX will not work. Does that still apply and if it does what is the scope? 64-bit apps, drivers, 32-bit apps or all of them?

It does preserve the state. It's the DDK page that has stale information, which I've requested it to be changed. Let them know that the OS does preserve state of x87 and MMX registers on context switches.

For user threads the state of legacy floating point is preserved at context switch. But it is not true for kernel threads. Kernel mode drivers can not use legacy floating point instructions.
