The x86 instruction is named 'ternlog', and intrinsic - 'ternarylogic' though; while perhaps unfortunate, the title is appropriate. (and even then 'bitwise' already sort of takes place of what 'ternary'-as-three-valued would, and 'ternary' is also very often three-input, so much so that 'a ? b : c' is often called the ternary operator (and in fact ternlog can simulate this ternary operation; and in fact the article is even about exactly that))
