MOVBE encodes operands in ModRM and operand size is determined by the
effective operand size. By looking at that switch(mode) thing near
the beginning of x86_decode_insn, we make sure ctxt->op_bytes is set
accordingly. Then, we have the following definitions for MOVBE:
+ [0xf0] = I(DstReg | SrcMem | ModRM | Mov | ThreeByte | EmulateOnUD,
em_movbe),
+ [0xf1] = I(DstMem | SrcReg | ModRM | Mov | ThreeByte | EmulateOnUD,
em_movbe),
and from looking at decode_operand(), it makes sure that op->bytes gets
the correct value since we have the proper {Src,Dst}{Reg,Mem} flags in
the insn definition.
So everything is fine, I'll make sure it works that way too, though,
when testing.
Thanks.
