Intel introduces new Advanced Performance Extension.

www.intel.com Advanced Performance Extensions (APX)

Advanced Performance Extensions (APX) expand the entire x86 instruction set with access to more registers and adds various new features that improve general-purpose performance.

Intel seems to have gotten "inspired" by ARM and is going to double the GP registers to 32 and implement a push2 and pop2 instructions that move two register values in one operation.

Seems interesting enough.
