Ch. 7 Logic, Shift and Rotate instr. Logic Instructions AND, OR, XOR and NOT TEST Instruction Shift Instructions Left shift – doubles a number Right shift – halves a number … multiply or divide by powers of 2 MUL, DIV – much slower than shift instr… Rotate Stack Operations Introduction to Procedures
7.1 AND, OR and XOR Instructions AND destination, source OR destination, source XOR destination, source Dest. – must be a Register or mem. Source – const, reg., mem Memory-to-memory operations are not allowed Effect on flags SF, ZF, PF reflect the result AF is undefined CF, OF = 0 SF – sign ZF – zero PF – parity AF – auxiliary carry OF – overflow CF – carry
Use of Logic Instructions Selectively modify the bits of destination b AND 1 = b (b represents a bit, 0/1) b AND 0 = 0 b OR 0 = b b OR 1 = 1 b XOR 0 = b b XOR 1 = ~b (complement of b) So, AND can be used to clear specific destination bit OR can be used to set specific destination bit XOR can be used to complement specific destination bit
Examples mask Example 7.2: Clear the sign bit of AL while leaving the other bits unchanged. AND AL, 7Fh Example 7.3: Set the msb and lsb of AL while preserving the other bits. OR AL, 81h Example 7.4: Change the sign bit of DX XOR DX, 8000h 0111 1111 = 7Fh 1000 0001 = 81h See example from book
How to clear a register? MOV AX, 0 ; machine code 3 bytes SUB AX, AX ; .. 2 bytes XOR AX, AX ; .. 2 bytes -- BUT mem2mem operations only for MOV is allowed here – so to clear a memory location, use MOV.
7.1.2 NOT Instruction 1’s Complement operation NOT destination No effect on status flags Example 7.5: Complement the bits in AX NOT AX

7.2 TEST Instruction TEST performs AND of the destination with source – but no change of the dest. contents TEST destination, source Effects on flags SF, ZF, PF reflect the result AF is undefined CF, OF = 0 TEST vs. CMP CMP is subtraction operation
JZ – jump if equal to zero TEST Example Jump to label BELOW if AL contains an even number TESET AL, 1 ; is AL even? JZ BELOW ; yes, go to BELOW JZ – jump if equal to zero use to examine individual bits in an operand. mask contains 1’s in the bits positions to be tested & 0’s elsewhere Even numbers have a 0 in bit#0. So, mask = 0000 0001b = 1

7.2 Shift and Rotate Instructions Two types of shift and rotate instructions Logical Shift / Rotate Arithmetic Shift/Rotate Both logical and arithmetic left shift are identical But right shifts are different
opcode dest, 1 ; 1 bit change opcode dest, CL ; N bits change ; CL contians N Dest reg., mem SHL Multiplication by left shift by multiplies of 2 SAL for numeric multiplication
Shift and Rotate Instructions SHL DH, 3 ; DH = 1110 1111 DH = 0111 1000 C = 1 SHR DH, 3 ; DH = 1110 1111 DH = 0001 1101 C = 1 SAL DH, 2 ; DH = 1110 1111 DH = 1011 1100 C = 1 SAR DH, 2 ; DH = 1110 1111 DH = 1111 1011 C = 1
Rotate Instructions ROL – rotate left ROR – r right RCL – r carry left RCR – r c right Let DH = 8Ah = 1000 1010 CF = 1 After first RCR DH = 1100 0101 CF = 0 After second RCR DH = 0110 0010 CF = 1
