  2. Goals of Today’s Lecture • Machine language • Encoding the operation and the operands • Simpler MIPS instruction set as an example • More on IA32 assembly language • Different sizes of data • Example instructions • Addressing modes • Layout of assembly language program

  3. Machine Language Using MIPS Architecture as an Example (since it has a simpler instruction set than IA32)

  4. Three Levels of Languages • High-level languages (e.g., Java and C) • Easier programming by describing operations in a natural language • Increased portability of the code • Assembly language (e.g., IA32 and MIPS) • Tied to the specifics of the underlying machine • Instructions and names to make code human readable • Machine language • Also tied to the specifics of the underlying machine • In binary format the computer can read and execute • Every instruction is a sequence of one or more numbers

  5. Machine-Language Instructions An ADD Instruction: add r1 = r2 + r3 (assembly) Parts of the Instruction: • Opcode (verb) – what operation to perform • Operands (noun) – what to operate upon • Source Operands – where values come from • Destination Operand – where to deposit data values Opcode Operands

  6. Machine-Language Instruction • Opcode • What to do • Source operand(s) • Immediate (in the instruction itself) • Register • Memory location • I/O port • Destination operand • Register • Memory location • I/O port • Assembly syntax Opcode source1, [source2,] destination

  7. MIPS Has Three Kinds of 32-bit Instructions • R: Registers • Two source registers (rs and rt) • One destination register (rd) • E.g., “rd = rs + rt” or “rd = rs & rt” or “rd = rs xor rt” op rs rd rt shamt funct Shift amount Operation and specific variant

  8. MIPS Has Three Kinds of 32-bit Instructions • I: Immediate, transfer, branch • One source register (rs) and one 16-bit constant (imm) • One destination register (rd) • E.g., “rd = rs + imm” or “rd = rs & imm” • E.g., “rd = MEM[rs + imm]” (treating rs+imm as address) • E.g., “jump to address contained in rs” (rs as address) • E.g., “jump to word imm if rs is 0” (i.e., change instruction pointer) op rs rd address/immediate

  9. MIPS Has Three Kinds of 32-bit Instructions • J: Jump • One 28-bit constant (imm) for # of 32-bit words to jump • E.g., “jump by imm words” (i.e., change the instruction pointer) op target address

  10. MIPS “Add” Instruction Encoding Add registers 18 and 19, and store result in register 17. add is an R inst 0 1819 17 0 32

  11. MIPS “Subtract” Instruction Encoding Subtract register 19 from register 18 and store in register 17 sub is an R inst 0 18 19 17 0 34

  12. Greater Detail on IA32 Assembly:Instruction Set and Data Sizes

  13. movl $0, %ecx .loop: cmpl $1, %edx jle .endloop addl $1, %ecx movl %edx, %eax andl $1, %eax je .else movl %edx, %eax addl %eax, %edx addl %eax, %edx addl $1, %edx jmp .endif .else: sarl $1, %edx .endif: jmp .loop .endloop: n %edx count %ecx Earlier Example count=0; while (n>1) { count++; if (n&1) n = n*3+1; else n = n/2; }

  14. Size of Variables • Data types in high-level languages vary in size • Character: 1 byte • Short, int, and long: varies, depending on the computer • Pointers: typically 4 bytes • Struct: arbitrary size, depending on the elements • Implications • Need to be able to store and manipulate in multiple sizes • Byte (1 byte), word (2 bytes), and extended (4 bytes) • Separate assembly-language instructions • e.g., addb, addw, addl • Separate ways to access (parts of) a 4-byte register

  15. Four-Byte Memory Words 232-1 Memory 31 24 23 16 15 8 7 0 . . . Byte 7 Byte 6 Byte 5 Byte 4 0 Byte 3 Byte 2 Byte 1 Byte 0 Byte order is little endian

  17. Arithmetic Instructions • Simple instructions • add{b,w,l} source, dest dest = source + dest • sub{b,w,l} source, dest dest = dest – source • Inc{b,w,l} dest dest = dest + 1 • dec{b,w,l} dest dest = dest – 1 • neg{b,w,l} dest dest = ^dest • cmp{b,w,l} source1, source2 source2 – source1 • Multiply • mul (unsigned) or imul (signed) mull %ebx # edx, eax = eax * ebx • Divide • div (unsigned) or idiv (signed) idiv %ebx # edx = edx,eax / ebx • Many more in Intel manual (volume 2) • adc, sbb, decimal arithmetic instructions

  18. Bitwise Logic Instructions • Simple instructions and{b,w,l} source, dest dest = source & dest or{b,w,l} source, dest dest = source | dest xor{b,w,l} source, dest dest = source ^ dest not{b,w,l} dest dest = ^dest sal{b,w,l} source, dest (arithmetic) dest = dest << source sar{b,w,l} source, dest (arithmetic) dest = dest >> source • Many more in Intel Manual (volume 2) • Logic shift • Rotation shift • Bit scan • Bit test • Byte set on conditions

  19. Branch Instructions • Conditional jump • j{l,g,e,ne,...} target if (condition) {eip = target} • Unconditional jump • jmp target • jmp *register

  20. Setting the EFLAGS Register • Comparison cmpl compares two integers • Done by subtracting the first number from the second • Discarding the results, but setting the eflags register • Example: • cmpl $1, %edx (computes %edx – 1) • jle .endloop (looks at the sign flag and the zero flag) • Logical operation andl compares two integers • Example: • andl $1, %eax (bit-wise AND of %eax with 1) • je .else (looks at the zero flag) • Unconditional branch jmp • Example: • jmp .endif and jmp .loop

  22. esp esp esp esp Data Transfer Instructions • mov{b,w,l} source, dest • General move instruction • push{w,l} source pushl %ebx # equivalent instructions subl $4, %esp movl %ebx, (%esp) • pop{w,l} dest popl %ebx # equivalent instructions movl (%esp), %ebx addl $4, %esp • Many more in Intel manual (volume 2) • Type conversion, conditional move, exchange, compare and exchange, I/O port, string move, etc.

  23. Greater Detail on IA32 Assembly:Addressing Modes

  24. Ways to Read and Write Data • Processors have many ways to access data • Known as “addressing modes” • Two simplest ways (used in earlier example) • Immediate addressing: movl $0, %ecx • Data embedded in the instruction • Initialize register ECX with zero • Register addressing: movl %edx, %ecx • Data stored in a register • Copy value in register EDX into register ECX • The others all deal with memory addresses • To read and write data from main memory • E.g., to get data from memory into a register • E.g., to write data from a register back in to memory

  25. Direct vs. Indirect Addressing • Read or write from a particular memory location • Essentially dereferencing a pointer • Direct addressing: movl 2000, %ecx • Address embedded in the instruction • E.g., address 2000 corresponds to a global variable • Load ECX register with the long located at address 2000 • Indirect addressing: movl (%eax), %ebx • Address stored in a register • E.g., EAX register is a pointer • Load EBX register with long located at address in EAX

  26. More Complex Addressing Modes • Base pointer addressing: movl 4(%eax), %ebx • Extends indirect addressing by allowing an offset • E.g., add “4” to the register EAX to get the address • Allows access to a particular field in a structure • E.g., if “age” starts at the 4th byte of a record • Indexed addressing: movl 2000(,%ecx,1), %ebx • Starts from a base address (e.g., 2000) • Adds an offset from a register (e.g., ECX) • With a multiplier of 1, 2, 4, or 8 (e.g., 1 to multiply by 1) • Allows register to be index for byte, word, or long array

  27. Effective Address • Displacement movl foo, %ebx • Base movl (%eax), %ebx • Base + displacement movl foo(%eax), %ebx movl 1(%eax), %ebx • (Index * scale) + displacement movl (,%eax,4), %ebx • Base + (index * scale) + displacement movl foo(%edx,%eax,4),%ebx eaxebxecxedxespebpesiedi eaxebxecxedxespebpesiedi None 8-bit 16-bit 32-bit 1 2 4 8 Offset = + * + Base Index scale displacement

  28. Data Access Methods: Summary • Immediate addressing: data stored in the instruction itself • movl $10, %ecx • Register addressing: data stored in a register • movl %eax, %ecx • Direct addressing: address stored in instruction • movl 2000, %ecx • Indirect addressing: address stored in a register • movl (%eax), %ebx • Base pointer addressing: includes an offset as well • movl 4(%eax), %ebx • Indexed addressing: instruction contains base address, and specifies an index register and a multiplier (1, 2, 4, or 8) • movl 2000(,%ecx,1), %ebx

  29. Layout of an Assembly Language Program

  30. A Simple Assembly Program .section .text .globl _start _start: # Program starts executing # here # Body of the program goes # here # Program ends with an # “exit()” system call # to the operating system movl $1, %eax movl $0, %ebx int $0x80 .section .data # pre-initialized # variables go here .section .bss # zero-initialized # variables go here .section .rodata # pre-initialized # constants go here

  31. Main Parts of the Program • Break program into sections (.section) • Data, BSS, RoData, and Text • Starting the program • Making _start a global (.global _start) • Tells the assembler to remember the symbol _start • … because the linker will need it • Identifying the start of the program (_start) • Defines the value of the label _start

  32. Main Parts of the Program • Exiting the program • Specifying the exit() system call (movl $1, %eax) • Linux expects the system call number in EAX register • Specifying the status code (movl $0, %ebx) • Linux expects the status code in EBX register • Interrupting the operating system (int $0x80)

  33. Conclusions • Machine code • Binary representation of instructions • What operation to do, and on what data • IA32 instructions • Manipulate bytes, words, or longs • Numerous kinds of operations • Wide variety of addressing modes • Next time • Calling functions, using the stack
