Instruction Addressing and Execution

Instruction Addressing and Execution

Lesson plan

• Review some concepts in the first week• First assembly program with EMU8086• Related concepts with the first program:

– Loading program – Boot process– Handling the stack

Recalling main concepts

Recalling main concepts

Recalling main concepts

• Segment: special areas defined to contain CODE, DATA and STACK

• Paragraph boundary: location evenly divisible by 16 or 10H

Recalling main concepts

Segment Registers

Practice

• Start EMU8086• Type the first assembly language

given• Compile: Compile icon• Run:Run icon

Result of the first program

Types of programs

• *.COM and *.EXE files– *.COM: consists of one segment

containing code, data and stack– *.exe: separate code, data and stack

segments

Loading *.exe program• Access *.exe from disk• 256-byte Program Segment Prefix (PSP)

on a paragraph boundary• Store the program immediately

following the PSP• Load address of PSP in the DS & ES• Load code segment in CS, set IP • Load address of the stack to SS, set SP• Transfer control to the program for

execution

Protected mode-Is a type of memory utilization, available on Intel 80286 and later

-Support:protection: each program is protected

from interference from other programs. extended memory : Enables a single

program to access more than 640K of memory. virtual memory : Expands the address

space to over 1GB. Multitasking:

Booting processWhat is booting?

• The process of starting or restarting a computer

cold boot

Process of turning on a computer after it

has been powered off completely

warm boot

Process of restarting a

computer that is already powered on

Also called a warm start

Assembly directive to define stack to use in the

program

STACK

• The word is from data structure• Last In, First Out (LIFO) mechanism• STACK in OS has three main

functions:– Contains return address – Data– Content of present registers

STACK

• PUSH– Decrease SP by 2 and store a value

there

• POP– Return a value from stack and

increase SP by 2

Lesson plan• Review loading an *.exe file• Concept of execution of instructions• Practice:

• Execution of instructions

Access *.exe from disk256-byte Program Segment Prefix (PSP) on a paragraph boundaryStore the program immediately following the PSPLoad address of PSP in the DS & ESLoad code segment in CS, set IP Load address of the stack to SS, set SPTransfer control to the program for execution

Loading *.exe file

Loading *.exe file

• The sequence of segments (code, data, and stack) is given

• SS: contains the address of the beginning of the stack

• CS: contains the address of the beginning of the code segment

• DS: contains the address of the beginning of the data segment

• SP: contains the size of stack

Instruction Execution and Addressing

• Executing an instruction include– Fetch the next instruction, put to a

queue (QUEUE: FIFO vs. STACK LIFO)– Decode the instruction– Execute the instruction
