This is a fix for disassembling unusual instruction sequences in 64-bit mode w.r.t the CALL rel16 instruction. It might be desirable to move the check somewhere else, but it essentially mimics the special case handling with JCXZ in 16-bit mode. The current behavior accepts the opcode size prefix and causes the call's immediate to stop disassembling after 2 bytes. When debugging sequences of instructions with this pattern, the disassembler output becomes extremely unreliable and essentially useless (if you jump midway into what lldb thinks is a unified instruction, you'll lose %rip). So we ignore the prefix and consume all 4 bytes when disassembling a 64-bit mode binary. Note: in Vol. 2A 3-99 the Intel spec states that CALL rel16 is N.S. N.S. is defined as: Indicates an instruction syntax that requires an address override prefix in 64-bit mode and is not supported. Using an address override prefix in 64-bit mode may result in model-specific execution behavior. (Vol. 2A 3-7) Since 0x66 is an operand override prefix we should be OK (although we may want to warn about 0x67 prefixes to 0xe8). On the CPUs I tested with, they all ignore the 0x66 prefix in 64-bit mode. Patch by Matthew Barney! Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D9573 llvm-svn: 246038 |
