Description
The opcode D6 has been officially reserved as a single-byte permanent
undefined (#UD) opcode in 64-bit mode with the mnemonic UDB. This is
already the behavior of all known 64-bit implementations; this is thus
merely an official statement of forward compatibility and the
assignment of a mnemonic.
This will be documented in the next version of the Intel Software
Developer's Manual; in the meantime I DO speak officially for Intel on
this issue.
The x86 Advisory Council has ratified this decision, and so it is
expected to be honored across vendors, but I obviously cannot make any
official statement on any other vendor's behalf.
