.SH NAME

|
|
|
i86_as \- assembler for Intel 8086
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~em/lib/i86/as [options] argument ...
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This assembler is made with the general framework
|
|
|
|
described in \fIuni_ass\fP(6). It is an assembler generating relocatable
|
|
|
|
object code in \fIack.out\fP(5) format.
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNTAX
|
|
|
|
.IP segments
|
|
|
|
An address on the Intel 8086 consists of two pieces:
|
|
|
|
a segment number and an offset. A memory address is computed as
|
|
|
|
the segment number shifted left 4 bits + the offset.
|
|
|
|
Assembly language addresses only give the offset, with the exception of
|
|
|
|
the address of an inter-segment jump or call (see \fIaddressing modes\fP
|
|
|
|
below).
|
|
|
|
.IP registers
|
|
|
|
The Intel 8086 has the following 16-bit registers:
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
Four general registers: ax (accumulator), bx (base), cx (count), and dx (data).
|
|
|
|
The upper halves and lower halves of these registers are separately
|
|
|
|
addressable as ah, bh, ch, dh, and al, bl, cl, dl respectively.
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
Two pointer registers: sp (stack pointer) and bp (base pointer).
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
Two index registers: si (source index) and di (destination index).
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
Four segment registers: cs (code), ds (data), ss (stack), and es (extra).

syntax meaning
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
expr the value of \fIexpr\fP is immediate data or
|
|
|
|
an address offset. There is no special
|
|
|
|
notation for immediate data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
register one of the aforementioned general registers
|
|
|
|
or their upper or lower halves, or one of the
|
|
|
|
four segment registers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(expr) the value of expr is the address of the operand.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(reg)
|
|
|
|
expr (reg) the value of \fIexpr\fP (if present) + the contents of
|
|
|
|
\fIreg\fP (which must be a pointer or an index register)
|
|
|
|
is the address of the operand.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(preg) (ireg)
|
|
|
|
expr (preg) (ireg)
|
|
|
|
the value of \fIexpr\fP (if present) + the contents of
|
|
|
|
\fIpreg\fP (which must be a pointer register) + the
|
|
|
|
contents of \fIireg\fP (which must be an index register)
|
|
|
|
is the address of the operand.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next addressing mode is only allowed with the instructions
|
|
|
|
"callf" or "jmpf".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
expr : expr the value of the first \fIexpr\fP is a segment number,
|
|
|
|
the value of the second \fIexpr\fP is an address offset.
|
|
|
|
The (absolute) address of the operand is computed
|
|
|
|
as described above.

.IP instructions
|
1988-04-11 10:44:06 +00:00
|
|
|
Each time an address is computed the processor decides which segment register
|
|
|
|
to use. You can override the processor's choice by prefixing the instruction
|
1987-03-02 11:28:52 +00:00
|
|
|
with one of eseg, cseg, sseg, or dseg; these prefixes indicate that the
|
|
|
|
assembler should choose es, cs, ss, or ds instead.
