Chapter 3.5, Problem 3.12PP

Explanation of Solution

Given program:

void uremdiv(unsigned long x, unsigned long y, unsigned long *qp, unsigned long *rp)

{

Unsigned long q = x/y;

Unsigned long r = x%y;

*qp = q;

*rp = r;

}

Data movement instructions:

• The different instructions are been grouped as “instruction classes”.
• The instructions in a class performs same operation but with different sizes of operand.
• The “Mov” class denotes data movement instructions that copy data from a source location to a destination.
• The class has 4 instructions that includes:
  • movb:
    • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
    • It denotes an instruction that operates on 1 byte data size.
  • movw:
    • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
    • It denotes an instruction that operates on 2 bytes data size.
  • movl:
    • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
    • It denotes an instruction that operates on 4 bytes data size...
