hardware interrupt on arithmetic overflow?

Question

Those of us who know the Carry and Overflow flag (lets not forget about sign and zero) love them.

My question is, is there a CPU that will interrupt if a carry or overflow flag is set? when it ask it to?

Its way better then having a branch after every arithmetic instruction...

Answer 1

On IA-32 CPUs you have the INTO instruction (that's the letter O, not the number 0) that will go to interrupt handler 4 (#OF) if the overflow flag is set.

There is no equivalent instruction for the carry flag.

Note that this instruction is invalid in 64-bit mode.
