Packed Blending Intrinsics

These Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 4 (Intel® SSE4) intrinsics pack multiple operations in a single instruction. Blending conditionally copies one field in the source onto the corresponding field in the destination. The prototypes for these intrinsics are in the smmintrin.h file.

To use these intrinsics, include the immintrin.h file as follows:

#include <immintrin.h>
