Detailed Description

To decode an instruction you are required to provide

The machine state is passed in to decoder via the class xed_state_t . That state is set via the constructor of each xed_decoded_inst_t .

The xed_decoded_inst_t contains the results of decoding after a successful decode.

The xed_decoded_inst_t includes an array of xed_operand_values_t and that is where most of the information about the operands, resources etc. are stored. See the Operand storage fields interface. The array is indexed by the xed_operand_enum_t enumeration. Do not access it directly though; use the interface functions in the Operand storage fields interface for portability.

After decoding the xed_decoded_inst_t contains a pointer to the xed_inst_t which acts like a kind of template giving static information about the decoded instruction: what are the types of the operands, the iclass, category extension, etc. The xed_inst_t is accessed via the xed_decoded_inst_inst(cont xed_decoded_inst_t* xedd) function.

Before every decode, you must call one of the initialization functions. The most common case would be to use xed_decoded_inst_zero_keep_mode() or maybe xed_decoded_inst_zero_set_mode().


Typedef Documentation

typedef struct xed_decoded_inst_s xed_decoded_inst_t
 

The main container for instructions.

After decode, it holds an array of operands with derived information from decode and also valid xed_inst_t pointer which describes the operand templates and the operand order. See Decoding Instructions for API documentation.

typedef struct xed_inst_s xed_inst_t
 

constant information about a decoded instruction form, including the pointer to the constant operand properties xed_operand_t for this instruction form.

typedef struct xed_operand_s xed_operand_t
 

Constant information about an individual generic operand, like an operand template, describing the operand properties.

See Decoding Instructions for API information.


Function Documentation

XED_DLL_EXPORT xed_attribute_enum_t xed_attribute unsigned int  i  ) 
 

Return the i'th global attribute in a linear sequence, independent of any instruction.

This is used for scanning and printing all attributes.

XED_DLL_EXPORT unsigned int xed_attribute_max void   ) 
 

Return the maximum number of defined attributes, independent of any instruction.

XED_DLL_EXPORT xed_error_enum_t xed_decode xed_decoded_inst_t xedd,
const xed_uint8_t *  itext,
const unsigned int  bytes
 

This is the main interface to the decoder.

Parameters:
xedd the decoded instruction of type xed_decoded_inst_t . Mode/state sent in via xedd; See the xed_state_t
itext the pointer to the array of instruction text bytes
bytes the length of the itext input array. 1 to 15 bytes, anything more is ignored.
Returns:
xed_error_enum_t indiciating success (XED_ERROR_NONE) or failure. Note failure can be due to not enough bytes in the input array.
The maximum instruction is 15B and XED will tell you how long the actual instruction is via an API function call xed_decoded_inst_get_length(). However, it is not always safe or advisable for XED to read 15 bytes if the decode location is at the boundary of some sort of protection limit. For example, if one is decoding near the end of a page and the XED user does not want to cause extra page faults, one might send in the number of bytes that would stop at the page boundary. In this case, XED might not be able to decode the instruction and would return an error. The XED user would then have to decide if it was safe to touch the next page and try again to decode with more bytes. Also sometimes the user process does not have read access to the next page and this allows the user to prevent XED from causing process termination by limiting the memory range that XED will access.

This is different than the xed_operand_values_get_effective_operand_width() which only returns 16/32/64. This factors in the BYTEOP attribute when computing its return value. This is a convenience function.

Interpret the operand action in light of AVX512 masking and zeroing/merging.

If masking and merging are used together, the dest operand may also be read. If masking and merging are used together, the elemnents of dest operand register may be conditionally written (so that input values live on in the output register).

XED_DLL_EXPORT xed_bool_t xed_decoded_inst_uses_rflags const xed_decoded_inst_t p  ) 
 

This returns 1 if the flags are read or written.

This will return 0 otherwise. This will return 0 if the flags are really not used by this instruction. For some shifts/rotates, XED puts a flags operand in the operand array before it knows if the flags are used because of mode-dependent masking effects on the immediate.

Returns 128, 256 or 512 for operations in the VEX, EVEX (or XOP) encoding space and returns 0 for (most) nonvector operations.

This usually the content of the VEX.L or EVEX.LL field, reinterpreted. Some GPR instructions (like the BMI1/BMI2) are encoded in the VEX space and return non-zero values from this API.

Zero the decode structure completely.

Re-initializes all operands.

XED_DLL_EXPORT void xed_decoded_inst_zero_keep_mode xed_decoded_inst_t p  )

XED_DLL_EXPORT xed_error_enum_t xed_ild_decode xed_decoded_inst_t xedd,
const xed_uint8_t *  itext,
const unsigned int  bytes
 

This function just does instruction length decoding.

It does not return a fully decoded instruction.

Parameters:
xedd the decoded instruction of type xed_decoded_inst_t . Mode/state sent in via xedd; See the xed_state_t .
itext the pointer to the array of instruction text bytes
bytes the length of the itext input array. 1 to 15 bytes, anything more is ignored.
Returns:
xed_error_enum_t indiciating success (XED_ERROR_NONE) or failure. Only two failure codes are valid for this function: XED_ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SHORT and XED_ERROR_GENERAL_ERROR. In general this function cannot tell if the instruction is valid or not. For valid instructions, XED can figure out if enough bytes were provided to decode the instruction. If not enough were provided, XED returns XED_ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SHORT. From this function, the XED_ERROR_GENERAL_ERROR is an indication that XED could not decode the instruction's length because the instruction was so invalid that even its length may across implmentations.

XED_DLL_EXPORT unsigned int xed_inst_cpl const xed_inst_t p  ) 
 

xed_inst_cpl() is DEPRECATED.

Please use "xed_decoded_inst_get_attribute(xedd, XED_ATTRIBUTE_RING0)" instead. Return the current privilege level (CPL) required for execution, 0 or 3. If the value is zero, then the instruction can only execute in ring 0.

static XED_INLINE xed_reg_enum_t xed_operand_reg const xed_operand_t p  )  [static]
 

Careful with this one -- use xed_decoded_inst_get_reg()! This one is probably not what you think it is.

It is only used for hard-coded registers implicit in the instruction encoding. Most likely you want to get the xed_operand_enum_t and then look up the instruction using xed_decoded_inst_get_reg(). The hard-coded registers are also available that way.

Parameters:
