Convert to an int16 (on the stack as int32) and throw an exception on overflow. Base instruction 0x83 conv.ovf.i2.un: Convert unsigned to an int16 (on the stack as int32) and throw an exception on overflow. Base instruction 0xB7 conv.ovf.i4: Convert to an int32 (on the stack as int32) and throw an exception on overflow. Base instruction 0x84
The opcode for INT3 is 0xCC, as opposed to the opcode for INT immediate8, which is 0xCD immediate8. Since the dedicated 0xCC opcode has some desired special properties for debugging, which are not shared by the normal two-byte opcode for an INT3, assemblers do not normally generate the generic 0xCD 0x03 opcode from mnemonics.
Undefined Instructions – will generate an invalid opcode (#UD) exception in all operating modes. [z] These instructions are provided for software testing to explicitly generate invalid opcodes. The opcodes for these instructions are reserved for this purpose. (3) , [aa] Intel Pentium [68] UD1 reg,r/m, [ab] UD2B reg,r/m [y] 0F B9 /r [ac] OIO, UD0,
An opcode table (also called an opcode matrix) is a visual representation of all opcodes in an instruction set. It is arranged such that each axis of the table represents an upper or lower nibble, which combined form the full byte of the opcode. Additional opcode tables can exist for additional instructions created using an opcode prefix.
In computing, an opcode (abbreviated from operation code) [1] [2] is an enumerated value that specifies the operation to be performed. Opcodes are employed in hardware devices such as arithmetic logic units (ALUs) and central processing units (CPUs) as well as in some software instruction sets.
Ralf Brown's Interrupt List (aka RBIL, x86 Interrupt List, MS-DOS Interrupt List or INTER) is a comprehensive list of interrupts, calls, hooks, interfaces, data structures, CMOS settings, memory and port addresses, as well as processor opcodes for x86 machines from the 1981 IBM PC up to 2000 (including many clones), [1] [2] [nb 1] most of it still applying to IBM PC compatibles today.
During compilation of CLI programming languages, the source code is translated into CIL code rather than into platform- or processor-specific object code.CIL is a CPU- and platform-independent instruction set that can be executed in any environment supporting the Common Language Infrastructure, such as the .NET runtime on Windows, or the cross-platform Mono runtime.
When bit 15 of the opcode is set, it indicates that the 8-bit operand address in opcode bits 0–6 and 14 is extended to 16 bits using bits 0–7 of the following instruction word. Such instructions are written with an L prefix (LADD vs. ADD) and take an extra cycle to execute.
