Section 2.2.1.2 of the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual volume 2A states that when ModRM.mod !=11b and ModRM.rm = 100b indexed register-indirect addressing is used. In other words, a SIB byte follows the ModRM byte. In the specific case of SIB.index = 100b, the scale*index portion of the computation of the effective address is null. To signal callers of this particular situation, get_reg_offset() can return -EDOM (-EINVAL continues to indicate that an error when decoding the SIB byte).
An example of this situation can be the following instruction: 8b 4c 23 80 mov -0x80(%rbx,%riz,1),%rcx ModRM: 0x4c [mod:1b][reg:1b][rm:100b] SIB: 0x23 [scale:0b][index:100b][base:11b] Displacement: 0x80 (1-byte, as per ModRM.mod = 1b) The %riz 'register' indicates a null index. In long mode, a REX prefix may be used. When a REX prefix is present, REX.X adds a fourth bit to the register selection of SIB.index. This gives the ability to refer to all the 16 general purpose registers. When REX.X is 1b and SIB.index is 100b, the index is indicated in %r12. In our example, this would look like: 42 8b 4c 23 80 mov -0x80(%rbx,%r12,1),%rcx REX: 0x42 [W:0b][R:0b][X:1b][B:0b] ModRM: 0x4c [mod:1b][reg:1b][rm:100b] SIB: 0x23 [scale:0b][.X: 1b, index:100b][.B:0b, base:11b] Displacement: 0x80 (1-byte, as per ModRM.mod = 1b) Cc: Borislav Petkov <[email protected]> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <[email protected]> Cc: Dave Hansen <[email protected]> Cc: Adam Buchbinder <[email protected]> Cc: Colin Ian King <[email protected]> Cc: Lorenzo Stoakes <[email protected]> Cc: Qiaowei Ren <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Nathan Howard <[email protected]> Cc: Adan Hawthorn <[email protected]> Cc: Joe Perches <[email protected]> Cc: Ravi V.
