<p>Writes the value of EAX into PKRU. ECX and EDX must be 0 when WRPKRU is executed; otherwise, a general-protection exception (#GP) occurs.</p>
<p>WRPKRU can be executed only if CR4.PKE = 1; otherwise, an invalid-opcode exception (#UD) occurs. Software can discover the value of CR4.PKE by examining CPUID.(EAX=07H,ECX=0H):ECX.OSPKE [bit 4].</p>
<p>On processors that support the Intel 64 Architecture, the high-order 32-bits of RCX, RDX, and RAX are ignored.</p>
<p>WRPKRU will never execute speculatively. Memory accesses affected by PKRU register will not execute (even speculatively) until all prior executions of WRPKRU have completed execution and updated the PKRU register.</p>
