Assembly 80x86

Problem 1 (a-h)

For each part of this problem, assume the "before" values when the gives instruction is executed. Give the requested "after" values. (The operands are word size to reduce the number of pairs of bits to combine) Before Instruction After (a) BX: FA 75 CX: 31 02 and bx, cx BX, SF, ZF (b) BX: FA 75 CX:31 02 or bx, cx BX, SF, ZF (c) BX: FA 75 CX: 31 02 or bx, cx BX, SF, ZF (d) BX: FA 75 not bx BX (e) AX: FA 75 and ax,00fh AX, SF, ZF (f) AX: FA 75 or ax, 0fff0h AX, SF, ZF (g) AX: FA 75 xor ax, 0ffffh AX, SF, Zf (h) AX: FA 75 test ax,0004h AX, SF, ZF

Explanation / Answer

(a) We have bx: FA 75 and cx: 31 02

AND bx, cx would perform bit-wise 'and' operation on bx and cx and store the response in bx.

bx = 1111 1010 0111 0101

cx = 0011 0001 0000 0010

  1111 1010 0111 0101

AND 0011 0001 0000 0010

-------------------------------------------

0011 0000 0000 0000

which is 30 00

Since the resultant MSB is 0 and the result overall is non-zero, SF = 0 and ZF = 0

Hence the after values are: BX: 30 00, SF: 0, ZF: 0

(b) We have bx: FA 75 and cx: 31 02

OR bx, cx would perform bit-wise 'or' operation on bx and cx and store the response in bx.

bx = 1111 1010 0111 0101

cx = 0011 0001 0000 0010

  1111 1010 0111 0101

OR 0011 0001 0000 0010

-------------------------------------------

1111 1011 0111 0111

which is FB 77

Since the resultant MSB is 1 and the result overall is non-zero, SF = 1 and ZF = 0

Hence the after values are: BX: FB 77, SF: 1, ZF: 0

(c) We have bx: FA 75 and cx: 31 02

XOR bx, cx would perform bit-wise 'xor' operation on bx and cx and store the response in bx.

bx = 1111 1010 0111 0101

cx = 0011 0001 0000 0010

  1111 1010 0111 0101

XOR 0011 0001 0000 0010

-------------------------------------------

1100 1011 0111 0111

which is CB 77

Since the resultant MSB is 1 and the result overall is non-zero, SF = 1 and ZF = 0

Hence the after values are: BX: CB 77, SF: 1, ZF: 0

(d) We have bx: FA 75

NOT bx would perform bit-wise 'not' operation on bx store the response in bx.

bx = 1111 1010 0111 0101

NOT 1111 1010 0111 0101 = 0000 0101 1000 1010

which is 05 8A

Since the resultant MSB is 0 and the result overall is non-zero, SF = 0 and ZF = 0

Hence the after values are: BX: FB 77, SF: 0, ZF: 0
